I don’t like my cat.
I bet many of you reading this, do like my cat.
Even though you’ve never met my cat,
you might like all cats. Even mine.
I don’t like my cat.
It wasn’t even my cat. It was this skinny, sickly, starving stray, so I fed it. I even took it to the vet. I guess during that time it became my cat.
After reading about my feline philanthropy,
especially the vet part, those who hated me
for disliking my cat probably like me now.
I can hear you, “Awwww, she was so good to help that poor cat.”
.
.
Yes and thank you. I’m actually quite nice and friendly with my cat. Again, thank you.

Aaaah but some may still imagine me rotten to unabashedly denounce my cat.
People say that cats are cute and smart and do funny things. They really do say that.
I don’t know what makes them say those things.

I don’t say things like that, because I don’t like my cat.

Some may ask, “Why don’t you like your cat?”
It would be cruel of me to air my kitty’s dirty cat box in detail, in public.
So then, just imagine traits YOU don’t like about 4-legged or even 2-legged beasts and we’ll be in good standing on this one. As long as you apply those traits to my cat.

Is not liking cats an option for you?
If not, could you at least find it in your heart to not like my cat?

    I usually love cats, but I can see why one would have a problem with certain specimen of its kind.
    My friend A. once had a cat that was really MEAN. Whenever I entered their living room the cat would start making weird noises, jumpig on me and iting and scratching- for no other reason then me being in its territory. That was SCARY! Luckily I survived and live to tell the tail.
  • When I meet-up with you in Paris how about I bring it and you take the furball back to Germany with you?
    Your friends cat sounds like it was jealous of you. Tell it you've now got a piano and I guarantee the venomous 4-legged monster will be livid with envy... I know I am ;)
  • Actually, I hate your cat. Then again, I hate all cats. I'm trying to legalize a feral cat hunting season.
  • I appreciate your hatred. And you go a step further and hate the whole feline species, which is quite admirable. I can't take a gun to the beasts, but I'll watch it on Youtube when you do it! Thanks for stopping by Jason, I really enjoy your blog. See you there soon.
  • Literally lost in words.. a wonderful story telling, a conscious flow of words, the same fashion in sentences and the ideas.. Also nothing is vague, but in the end, somehow, the whole story becomes -like- "unreal".

    I think this is the craftmanship.. no I'm not into much reading, not even news papers.. Yet, I see this right and courage in me to "acknowledge" you as if I were.. something.

    OK, one hell of a story telling, I said :)

    Moreover, in my opinion, in order to write this assay, you didn't really have to dislike your cat, did you? I mean, the harmony in the photograph of yours and the title might be no less than EPIC!..

    but still you might have done all this, the "hate-the-cat" story-line, for doing some literature, am I right? That'll be good for your cat :)

    Being a female I believe you have a better understanding about what your parents had endured until you learned how to make your own way on your two-legs.. rest assured the cats have four-legs, it means double-the-trouble. You're the sort of a mother for your "not very popular" cat :)

    I LOVE CATS - we all, the "hew-mons", are at their service :) remember?

    This is not my habit to drop in other ppl's blogs, and pour down words that ain't do nothing, but also is not very often that I read such classy articles - regards from afar

    But this is the perfect cat for you - you both have the same expression on your faces...sort of that "Seriously....." look. I LOVE cats. My darling husband loves them even more - although he prefers them on the barbie! xoxox
  • Karen, stop buttering up my cat. It craves the attention and it's unfair when people deliver! Stop that!
    Tell your hubby it's okay to be misguided in regards to liking cats. Then again, wait, what? On the barbie?
    Okay, I now love your hubby. And I already love you... All is good in this world.

    *except cats*
  • I never thought of myself as a cat person when younger, then kind of adopted one cat and before I got it fixed soon had 13 cats which made many years of my life rather difficult. Finally, old and decrepit, the last one passed away. Then of course my two young children adopted two kittens (immediately fixed!) which are now middle aged cats laying around arrogantly waiting to be fed. At least I've never had problems with mice!
  • That's a whole lot of cat action. Did people refer to you as "The crazy cat lady"?
    Yeah, one of the best things about those buggers is that they kill off the mice! Mine eat spiders too and anything else small that moves, even dustballs. I have to be careful not to let them near my sweet little Henry.

    Do you want my cat *Tomato* then? She is CUTE!
  • Tomato? Is your cat red and splattery? I bet it is....bet it's super yummy on a sandwich.
  • Your cat looks mean. Maybe it can smack my poopy pants dog with its tail.
  • I switched out pics. Previously when posted on Roger's blog it was a pic of me and the actual cat I don't like, but for some reason that pic made my nose look like a burnt up walnut! The cat above was a gentle sort, owned by my neighbors. It'd sneak into my window at night. I made it model for me in exchange for free room and board. He has that super model glare. heh
