Well folks, I found an IRL cat hater!

Genuinely took me off guard when she said that.

She also snarled in disgust when I showed her a picture of one of the sweet heart strays in my neighborhood.

.....Probably coming off as a fake post, but no, I'm being serious!

You all are fucking nuts for moralizing liking one type of pet and not the other. I hope this is a joke lol

I think disliking cats means that you're evil.

People who hate cats and call them assholes as more than a joke, usually struggle with boundaries in general. Cats aren't assholes or manipulative,

Come on man lmao

Its not about just preference. It's when someone specifically dislikes em. I think i made that very clear

But you also said can understand people disliking dogs so I concluded this was more about preferences and that you’re pathologizing people based on what animals they like as pets

I explained rational reasons why dogs can be off putting. They do tend to be care less about personal space and boundaries. As I said, if you visit a dog owners that dog will be all over you whwre if you visit a cat owner the cat will most likely never even be seen. I can understand people having an issue with dogs where I cant understand people having an issue with cats. Most cats arent all up in your business and none bark, they also arent as potentially dangerous. It's a discomfort i can rationalize. For cats there arent really any rational reasons.

There is nothing rational about the statement "I think disliking cats means that you're evil"
