    I would definitely say something. I'd probably say...I understand you don't like cats, but can you stop making comments all the time? Or I'd say....well, the cat lives here so if you don't like it then don't come over. Who knows, I'd probably not be very nice about it after putting up with it so often.

    He is definitely very immature and needs to grow up. Will your boyfriend talk to him about it, if you don't feel comfortable doing it? I can understand you not wanting to cause problems. In fact, I probably wouldn't have said anything when I was younger either. I've become a bit "hard" in my old age.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I would just tell him, "Tough! She lives here and you don't! She can go where she wants, IT'S HER HOME."
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    Your cat was there before he was. "Love Me, Love My Cat" I would never even consider dating anyone who didn't have a respect for animals. It's obvious he doesn't.

    I'd seriously consider losing the boyfriend before something else happens. Sorry, JMO.

    What the hell kind of friend is that??? I'd let the friend know that if he can't respect the kitty, to stay home!!

    I have a friend who is not a "cat" person. But, she respects me and my cats and even had me over with my two naked babies one night during the power outtage.

    That "friend" needs to grow up.

    The cat is a member of my family; you are not. Don't let the screen door hit you on your way out.

    That guy wouldn't last five minutes in my house! Has he no respect??? Sowa, you need a sign on your door...

    This house is maintained for the comfort and security of my dogs and cats.
    If you cannot accept that, then you cannot accept me.
    *so go away*

    Sheesh! What a weird person....I hate spiders too, but, if I met a spider owner and saw his/her spider, I'd keep my comments to myself! You're totally NOT overreacting! If anything like this (God forbid) ever happened to me, I hope I can stop my self from hurting that person! Hope that guy stops saying all the junk he says. This is extremely rude!
