I LOVE my cats. They are really, really sweet. Everyone that comes over loves them. Anchovy even sits in on my flute lessons because he likes the music. My student is one of his favorite people. Every night when I get into bed to go to sleep, Anchovy comes in about 3 minutes later and lays next to me to say "goodnight" and stays until I fall asleep since I am usually alone.

I know I can leave them at home all day and not worry about them, because they keep each other entertained. I even think it's funny to find the tumbleweeds of hair that collect from them playing.

To me, they are much cleaner than dogs, and they take up less space and are much less noisy!!!!!

bandnerd..they are much easier to own and less noisy than dogs for sure...heck..most cats don't even care if your there or not :spin:

I have two min pins and they are barely larger than cats...they hate when I say that...BUT...they can bark with the best of them

We have 4 cats, all rescued animals from the streets of MWC. Each has their own personality, quirks and habits.

Sure, one of us is playing doorman most of the time, but they are part of the family. Shannon, the oldest and fattest at age 15 and 20 lbs, is a Russian Blue with the softest fur I've ever felt. Rufus, our only male, is an orange tabby and scared of the "girls".

Callie and Prissy are mother and daughter. Callie is a Norwegian Forest cat and Prissy looks very little like her, but has the "voice" of a Wegie.

All of them are spoiled but relatively well-behaved. I'm pretty sure that none of them are aware of there own felinity! I wouldn't trade them for anything!
