I've said it before and I'll say it again - cat people are the oddest people in the world.
With dogs, it's a master/servant thing and you're in control. With cats, it's the reverse. They seem to turn intelligent people's brain into mush. Huge blind spot in noticing what vicious little bastards they are.

Yeah, we had an epidemic of wuvvly-wittle-kittenitis on this board a few years back, affecting the (on the face of it) most unlikely posters. I'm glad it ended because it was nauseating.

On the contrary. We love them because they're vicious little bastards. You can't respect a dog with all that obsequious, unquestioning loyalty.

To be fair to my two, they're not vicious little bastards, particularly (except sometimes to each other). Cute, yes. Dim, most certainly. Violent, no.

Seems to me that the only reason people have cats is to annoy those who don't. I should know - the gf has two!

I sometimes wish my cat was a bit more of a vicious little bastard. Trouble is he's a bit soft, meaning we get all manner of other mammals hanging around the garden. Still, he's struck up a lovely friendship with a girl cat from two doors down, but sadly she's moving to Malta in a couple of months so he's going to be heartbroken. He looks a little bit like Furtho Kurumi, but more bedraggled. His name's Nick, so called because he has a little nick in one ear, and that was the only way we could tell him apart from his twin brother (Nickless, obviously). Sadly his bro did a runner and now seems to be living wild, judging by the state of him on his twice-yearly return visits.

Furtho, release a mouse or two into your kitchen and you'll soon see how cute and dim they really are.

FF, I'm confident that such a course of action would simply serve to underline their dimness, at least; although Kurumi (the black one) has actually caught a bird in the past.
