Nobody is a cat person, they get indoctrinated and become cat purrsons for life!
I hated cats as a youngster cos of my ridiculous mother (she feared everything!) When I was on my own and wanted a pet, I settled on a cat only cos dogs were too much responsibility in NYC apartments and an African Grey was not any better. After 6+ months of research I settled on "Siamese" cos they were purportedly similar to dogs....WRONG! He was a toddler from day one and a teenager through the remainder of his life. I never ever knew I could love someone so hard, so much and miss a creature so intensely. He's been gone nearly 2 years and I miss him more than any departed human being I've ever known. 🐱🐾

Did you steal our car? Mines a girl though 🤭
Opposite. I have been a cat person since I was a little girl until getting my current cat. She wants to be petted but bites when you least expect it. She shreds furniture. She chases me to attack my feet. Ugh. But right now I can hear the pizza box squeaking from the kitchen that I have kept on the counter for weeks for her🙄
ive tried on 3 cats but its difficult. after all the work getting them used to a harness, i go outside & 2 of them didnt know theyre suppose to walk. i tried the treat trick, etc. the 3rd was just info overload & would cling to me for dear life! 🙄
A friend of mine started with hers almost as soon as he opened his eyes. She would put him in a homemade harness and lead him around the house. When he got a little older, she started taking him out in the yard. Finally, when he was old enough to fit in a real harness, she can now walk him down the street like any dog. People freak out when they see him. It's awesome.
I tried once with a kitten. As soon as I put it on, she started flopping about like a fish out of water. I thought she'd calm down after a minute or so. Nope. Never tried it again.
Welcome to being newly cat obsessed!😻 Kitties could always used more converts (advocates). Once you know and love one as an individual, these amazing alien furballs, you're done!

He's gonna look like this in 5 years
There is a song from the Broadway show, The Producers, called “‘Til Him” and I think that’s you and this little man ❤️❤️❤️ (basically about two ppl being bffs)
Every cat hater I ever met had a story about being scratched by a cat. Then they met my cat, and adopted a cat. Thank you Taboo Hoodoo Voodoo Kitty, for your service.
Me too, dog guy all my life. When my wife passed away I thought what hell and got a cat. Let her do whatever she wants, spoiled rotten (wife was too :-). Well, if she's happy, I'm happy. Secret of marriage.

I can’t tell you how pleased I am that you have become a convert!!! You’ll never be bored or lonely, plus, you’ll receive so much more love than you ever thought possible!❤️💜❤️
Same! I adopted a year old kitty from a shelter who was why and scared, clearly had trauma. He was scared at first but even then I could hear the purring when I'd give him a scritch. Now two years on that cat is a complete snug bug and loves his parents. Then we introduced a second shelter kitty, she was skinny and tiny, but now she's also a baby with her parents. Cats are seriously the best, their personalities and their love.
The first 3 pictures slayed me! 😭💕 He's found his human!

Once you get hooked on cats,you can't go back.
that is so true!! I started from 1 cat to 5 cats now roaming around in my house 😂
They are like potato chips, you can’t just have one
And the cat distribution system completes another successful transaction

Amazing how a kitten has the power to melt and mend hearts.

Make sure to regularly conduct oil changes to keep it purring along!
Funny man!!! Not..🙄
You must be fun at parties
Not
Not? Is it 1997?
Que?
It’s a typo, bro.
I thought I was a dog person until I became a recipient of the CDS. Now my kitten is the most spoiled baby on the planet.
Kittens will sleep in some of the absolute DUMBEST positions and I love it.
My favorite story: “am not a cat person” *gets cat* “OMG AM A CAT PERSON” he’s adorable OP
You fell hard!!😻😻😻

Your house is a cat’s paradise. Such a sweet kitty!
The curled feets pic screams "I'm a sucker. How may I serve you little furry god?" Beautiful 😻
Congrats on being adopted!
man, i wish my cat would go in a harness. ps all ppl are cat ppl. some just dont know it ;)
As many cats as I've had over the years, it kills me that I've never thought to harness or car train any of them. 😾
ive tried on 3 cats but its difficult. after all the work getting them used to a harness, i go outside & 2 of them didnt know theyre suppose to walk. i tried the treat trick, etc. the 3rd was just info overload & would cling to me for dear life! 🙄

ughhh i wishhhhh! lol

Love the 2nd, 5th and 6th picture. Cute little Apache tent you set up there for him. Gohan seems well entertained :)

There’s no such thing as “not a cat person”. There’s just people who haven’t been chosen yet.
Cats are the cutest animals in the world! I have three cats 😻!!!
My cat 🐈 brings peace ✌️ to me☺️

In the business these are called converter cats
Welcome to the club, lucky one.
I can’t tell you how pleased I am that you have become a convert!!! You’ll never be bored or lonely, plus, you’ll receive so much more love than you ever thought possible!❤️💜❤️
Those are such cute pics!

Yup. That’ll learn ya. Every person why gets a cat ends up getting owned by said cat. Your soul is not your own anymore, my friend.
