Just curious for fun. Because I sure do. I was just wondering how many of you have the same thoughts. I could say I love all animals more than people (except my family of course.) But is that so wrong??? Am I alone here!!

I am so sorry you lost your job! And I totally understand what you are saying. I have been through some rough times myself, and I often say my cat's fur has absorbed a lot of my tears. There was a period for nearly two years where I couldn't have a cat, and it was literally the worst two years of my life.

I've decided if I ever end up in a nursing home, I will have to have a stuffed cat to tote around!!! I am serious. Not having a cat would be the worst thing in the world for me.

More than my Mother or my nephew? NO... no, wait. It's a hard call... :) I OFTEN say that I like animals better than people. That is very close to the truth because I would MUCH rather spend the majority of my time with a cat than any person I know. That might be awful but it is the honest truth. Cats are just WONDERFUL beings!

Great question!

Totally me, too. I lived with roommates for those two years, and one of them did have a cat. The roommate was evil, and unfortunately so was her cat, so it didn't count. I will never let myself not have a cat again.
