BadgerBadger Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Pros - playfull - low maintenance - cat nip - lol cats Cons - aloof - sleep on work surfaces - eat birds - craps in other people gardens (maybe a pro if you're an owner)
CB Saint Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Insidious little b4stards. You couldn't write a "pro" list long enough to convince me otherwise.
Truesaint Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Nasty little animals. I agree that no list of pros would ever make me keep one.
georgeweahscousin Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 I was anti-cat until I got two. Bert and Ernie. Prefer them to dogs now, as much love, much lower maintenance and walk themselves.
norwaysaint Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 I've had both and like both well enough, but if I were to have one now it'd probably be a cat as dogs are just so cripplingly dependent. The whole thing about cats only being affectionate when they want something just isn't true in my experience. Cats are worse when it's a neighbour who has them. They don't usually crap in their own garden, but in other people's and cat**** is extremely toxic, which is pretty horrible when you've got small children wandering around the garden.
bridge too far Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 How about having one of these? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/also_in_the_news/7919495.stm
Dr Who? Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 I have two cats and I love and hate them. Just depends on what mood I am in, and what they are doing to be lovely or little ****s!!!
sperm_john Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 i was a massive dog lover/consequently not much of a cat lover untill my mum brought a persian with the most attitude known to man ....i could watch her for hours she wanders around planning how to take over the world i swear!
thesaint sfc Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Jillsaint likes cats. Massive con to me.
Trader Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 All those who say they don't like cats I suspect have never had one. I have and I think they're great.
mickn Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Insidious little b4stards. You couldn't write a "pro" list long enough to convince me otherwise. They are the most disgusting of creatures. I couldn't agree with this post more.
bridge too far Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 We've always had cats but, after our lovely Trevor died this time last year we thought we wouldn't have any more. But then an elderly relative and his wife died within a couple of weeks of each other and their cat was orphaned. So we took her in and I'm so glad we did - she's a delight!

Trevor :lol::lol: Cats = Hair = :x:x:x Agrrrr
bridge too far Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Trevor :lol::lol: Cats = Hair = :x:x:x Agrrrr I know He was one of two and was quite old - my daughters named them Trevor and Simon after the TV characters because she liked them in her teens. Simon disappeared years ago (the cat, that is).
Dog Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 In my life I have murdered dozens of cats, the last one was monday night in the snow, where I chopped a ginger tom in half with my shovel. The dirty bugger was curling one out on my gravel drive.
thesaint sfc Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Did you ever see the film cats & dogs? Dogs won in the end. I think that pretty much finalises this thread.
Colinjb Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 This thread is racist. Cats rule, Dogs drool.
latter day saint Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Cats. they can be annoying b*ggers but i like their attitude compared to a dogs.
BadgerBadger Posted 22 December, 2010 Author Posted 22 December, 2010 I'm a dog man through and through (the hairy 4 legged type) although I'll never own a cat I do find them interesting and fun animals and find cat kicking an amusing past time for people venting frustrations
Badger Posted 22 December, 2010 Posted 22 December, 2010 Cats are generally nasty little bastards who used to delight in sh!tting in my garden. That was before our border collie arrived and now thankfully she does a good job in seeing them off.

Badger Posted 23 December, 2010 Posted 23 December, 2010 Good plan. Is the next step to get a Rhino to stop the dog crapping in the garden? Its her garden,or at least she likes to think of it as such, so she has a bit more licence to take a dump here if she does not get a walk early enough.
Marsdinho Posted 23 December, 2010 Posted 23 December, 2010 Simple test: Lock your wife/partner, a dog and a cat in the back of a car. Leave them there for a couple of hours. Open car.... Only one of the three will be pleased to see you. Can I also add that woman that have pictures of their cats on their desks at work, need to be put down. Or woman that cant cope with the responsibility of having children, yet refer to their cat as if it was one of their children.
georgeg Posted 23 December, 2010 Posted 23 December, 2010 Is this the right thread to say I like pussy?
Crab Lungs Posted 24 December, 2010 Posted 24 December, 2010 Horrible little ****ers... they're just users. If they were twice the size they were they'd attack us. I'm with Mary Bale - bin 'em.
Trader Posted 24 December, 2010 Posted 24 December, 2010 (edited) To those who prefer dogs I've heard Belgian mastiffs are very friendly. Edited 24 December, 2010 by Trader
Badger Posted 24 December, 2010 Posted 24 December, 2010 I am pleased to report that my border collie saw some mangy ginger tw^tter of a cat today whilst on our morning walk and soon gave pursuit to f^ck the cat off back into its own garden. This - and two dumps in the snow - certainly brightened our dog's morning.
scotty Posted 4 January, 2011 Posted 4 January, 2011 All those who say they don't like cats I suspect have never had one. I have and I think they're great. I had one for 9 years and dont like them. They really arent the most pleasant of creatures imho, and the biggest drawback is when they get killed (which is likely) you probably wont ever know how or where or when it happened, or even if its happened at all. Witness the number of "has my cat been locked in your shed" type flyposters you see all the time, you might think its your cat but you never know where they are when they arent in your house. Which is most of the time.
Marsdinho Posted 10 March, 2011 Posted 10 March, 2011 To those who prefer dogs I've heard Belgian mastiffs are very friendly. So are Lions and Tigers.
StDunko Posted 10 March, 2011 Posted 10 March, 2011 This thread is racist. I work in a local authority, and the Dog Wardens work out of the same office as me. We once had a member of the public phone up and accuse the Authority of being racist (they were totally serious) as we issue fines for dog fouling but not cat fouling.
Colinjb Posted 10 March, 2011 Posted 10 March, 2011 A bit Yes from me. My two are wonderful little characters.
thefunkygibbons Posted 10 March, 2011 Posted 10 March, 2011 I like cats But I could not eat a whole one
Lighthouse Posted 10 March, 2011 Posted 10 March, 2011 Cats in the garden are fairly easy to get rid of. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/5999091/Pet-cat-eaten-by-13ft-python.html
SuperMikey Posted 10 March, 2011 Posted 10 March, 2011 F*cking hate cats, horrible little animals. Dogs all the way! ^^^^^^^^^^^ My dog.
Patrick Bateman Posted 11 March, 2011 Posted 11 March, 2011 Dogs have owners, Cats have staff Exactly! I do like dogs, but they are a bit, er, dumb! Even the "intelligent" ones are only doing it as they'll get a reward. Dogs thought process; "can I eat it", "can I **** it", "can I fight it" >> much like modern man I suppose. But cats are cool, calculated and generally awesome creatures. I've had Maine Coons, which are brilliant cats. They are huge, actually more affectionate than other breeds and moggies and they are just generally brilliant creatures - I love watching them, especially pouncing on massive house spiders. Non-cat lovers are weird and normally have a chip on their shoulder about something. Fact.
