Something... and Half of Something

Cats are nervous fur. I don't like cats. I don't like cat people. Cat people vote Democrat. Dog people vote Republican. In fact, your post has given me inspiration to do a bit on this subject. I remember Andy Rooney years ago did a brilliant bit on Dems vs Reps (Dem drink beer - Republicans drink Gin and Tonics in the Summer. In the Fall, Republicans drink Whiskey and Coke, Democrats drink beer). I always thought he needed to put in a line about cats.

You've inspired me!

OK, so ONE attack cat has been found out of millions. Dogs have entire breeds known for viciousness. And then there are several human groups known for being vicious in their unneccessary attacks-moslems, Bloods and Crips, Senate Liberals, spammers,etc.

Ya know Tom, my mother had a cat that used to leap up on top of the doors, and whenever we passed through the doorway, the darn thing would drop on top of you, claws out.

I despised that cat.

I had one cat for 15 years, my Daughters cat, only because he was aggressive and territorial. He kept all dogs, cats and Moose out of my yard yet never attacked people, my reward was an occaisional half a squirrel, or bird he'd caught. He was adopted by my daughter and when she left the nest we kept him, he's a good cat now. I don't want any cats on the premises and run off strays. Now a good dog is hard to beat for a companion, they'll alert you to a prowler, defend you if attacked and reward you with unconditional love even if you scold them. It's so rare to find a cat that attacks people unless that animal has been tormented and teased to the point it's only defense is offense.
