Does Everyone Think You're Crazy?

Nope not crazy at all Purrtender. Some family members are amazed at the amount of cats that I have, but they also understand it because of my love for cats. I have one sister though that won't come into the house to visit because all of a sudden she is allergic to cats. Her loss, not mine.
Mu hubby wasn't much of a cat person, but now.........................
All I hear is, "There's MY Mookers", or, "How's MY baby Willy," and even, "Come here MY Poppy Woppy." He is even the one who told me to bring Sweetpea into the house. Gosh, I love that man of mine.

Truthfully, I like my cats (and other people's) more than most people! And, I'm at the point in my life where I don't give a fig if anyone knows it.

So if I have 2 or 10, it's really no one else's business, except me and my hubby. We've been together 27 years and during that time at least 2 cats have graced our house; at times we had as many as 7. My family knew and never said a word. Our house was clean and (relatively) fur free, didn't smell, but it did have a few little scratches here and there. Those cats lived happy and healthy lives and brought us great joy. I miss all who have gone to the RB and I treasure the ones who live with me now.

Be a Cat Crazy Lady with pride!

I have to agree with Orangemm I have 4 cats and have had up to 5 with my fosters. If people don't like it that is their problem. I have a confession!!!!!

A girl came to my house and started complaining about all of the discusting cats that I have...... Yet I may add I have an entire wall of pictures and wooden plaques that state"Spoiled rotten cats live here" and "The cats and its housekeeping staff reside here" And then have the nerve to complain about my discusting cats. She was whining about all of the cat hair and how all of a sudden she was becoming allergic.

I hate to admit it since she was carrying on down at a gathering in my basement and she was not invited to my house in the first place I went up stairs found her shoes and jammed a TON of cat hair into her shoes!! Isn't that aweful of me??? She will think again before she complains about my four legged furry babies again. Or she will get hives!! I just thought that was VERY disrespectful on her part. She could have left but she chose to complain and push my babies and that just wasn't the thing to do.
That is aweful of me isn't it?????

Heidiv, your confession was hilarious!! Some people are just plain rude, I would have loved to have seen her face when she found the cat hair!

I am living with around 20 cats at the moment. I too am very lucky because hubby loves them as much as I do. There are many people who think I'm nuts but I figure the only one who really counts is God. I truly believe that by putting the lives of his creatures before material things or pressure from what other people think is crazy, is the right thing to do.
I think God put lots of different types of caring people in this world. Many care for humans and many care for animals. Being a member of PT shows you how many animal angels are gathered just in this one spot. I think thats pretty incredible and anyone who doesn't like it needs to take it up with God because he is the one who made us this way!
Enjoy your babies and poo on what others think!

Thank you Lisa! Dealing with the potential of two new cats and not being sure about it I really needed to hear that.
I sure have missed you!!!

I also agree 100% with what Catcrazylady Lisa has said!!! These are God's creatures, why should I question it? I was given this love in my heart for a reason and a husband who feels the same for a reason.

Heidiv, that is hysterical about the cat hair in the shoe!!!

K&L ... you've passed me now! (just barely)
