I have a cat

I love yoga dog!

After thinking about it, this is the main reason I don't care for most dogs: they're in my bubble. Other people's dogs get in my god damned bubble. They bark for hours, at various time im trying to sleep. They get unleashed where they're not supposed to be, jump on me, muddy or not, and I'm greeted with a wan smile, as though I find this perfectly adorable. They shit and their people leave their shit to sit.

So, in the end, my problem is with horrible dog owners, as opposed to the hapless animals themselves.

I am really happy with my cat.  He is affectionate in a mellow sort of way, coming by for some petting and then heading off again without doing the laying on my keyboard or book thing that some cats do, he likes to play and bite and such, but he is pretty good about keeping his claws sheathed and not biting too hard.  He's really everything I like about cats without any of the stuff that I don't.

Yep, oh my god, bad dog owners are such assholes.

Really, anyone who just lets their pets run around uncontrolled. One of my pet peeves is cats using my fucking garden as a litterbox. I know some of them are feral, but I also know perfectly well that most of them have homes and their people let them roam around outside at will

makes me wish we had more eagles.

Some people think keeping a cat indoors is cruel.

Unlike, say, shortening its lifespan by 2/3's, severely affecting local bird populations, and allowing them to shit in peoples gardens.

We couldn't keep our cats inside. 

It was either the local bird population and your garden, or every fragile object in the house and the carpet.

Hah.

That's fair. I'm not allowed to have nice things what with the toddler anyway. Come to think of it, I've never had nice things.

Because of cats. Little fuckers!

That's because cats are shitty pets.
