2 or More Cats Makes you a Crazy Cat Lady

Crazy Cat Lady.  Good thing I only have one. Why are so many people allergic to or greatly dislike cats? They are so cute and awesome.

What is a Crazy Cat Lady?

The crazy cat lady is a common, recognisable trope in contemporary culture: think of that frantic running around woman who buckets of cats as far as the eye can see. After a promising career in law, she experiences a burnout, starts drinking whiskey and gets a cat. Next minute, she’s talking gibberish, looking dishevelled and throwing her army of cats everywhere with tears in her eyes.  The younger version of the stereotype is usually associated with being single, strange and weird.

The History Of Crazy Cat Ladycat 1553039072

The earliest cat ladies were of course, those halloween favorites – witches. Well before those crazy witch-hunts, cats had a bad rep in the western world. Cats dealt with the devil. Cats were related to your lust filled sex life. Although, in recent pop culture, for whatever reason the crazy  cat lady has evolved into shorthand for a lonely, sad, pathetic, sexless woman. Can’t win you know. Too sexy, not sexy enough. Cats get all the bad reps.

The concept of the crazy cat lady tells us more about societies view on women much more than anything else. It has long been a negative term and a way to put shame and judgment on women who challenged traditional female roles, or were hard to domesticate and keep in line. Sure there are those hoarder animal cat people – but they are few and far between to the average single female who owns a cat or two.

Besides all this, cats are a super popular pet often beating past the dog as low maintenance, friendly pets to have around your home.  We live in the future and women are tired of defending themselves and their love for their cats. The views are slowly changing.

I, personally, dislike cats for several reasons:

(1) That cat smell.  I don't care how hygenic you are, you have that cat smell.
(2) People with cats talk about cats.  I don't like dog people who constantly talk about their dogs, but so far I've not met a person with whom I was surprised to find out they owned a cat.
(3) They're useless.
(4)  
(5) The meow makes me want to punch something.

I'm allergic to them, and I hate it, because I love cats.  Though I think unlike people who blatantly dislike cats, I can't really help being allergic.  🙂

I find that many people who don't have them assume they won't like cats.  And then are super surprised when they come across a properly socialised one, who are more like puppies who are litter trained and are a lil' more independent.  (My little Puggs would play fetch all day, every day, if people would keep throwing balls for him to fetch.  And whenever possible, Tiger still wants to be petted and loved, even after 13 years.)  There's an old myth that if a kitten is touched by a person before a certain age, the mother will reject them.  Which not only is untrue, but has traditionally made it so that cats don't properly socialise to humans.  Non-socialised cats tend to not be as friendly, which is the type people think of.  Also, there's a stupid stereotype that "real" men aren't supposed to like cats.  But in the end, at least in the States, there are more cats as pets than dogs.  (Can't find the number for Canada.)

What I hate most about them is that they're smug sh*t stirrers. We have had many dogs, and each of them was fond of sitting inside the window keeping a eye out for threats. Happy out, like.
When one of these creature would saunter across the lawn and stop right in front of the window and give them a smug look, driving the dogs off there heads.
Also, I hate when they have there S&M sex sessions right under your bedroom window at 5 in the morning, with them screaming like a baby banshee been knifed.
