JD Vance thinks it's just unmarried cat ladies? I'm a typical boring married mom of 4. I'm the white woman who never voted for Trump & I have thousands of sisters across the country who are getting angrier every day as they belittle us. It's not just a "honeymoon." #YesWeKam

(1,278 posts)... ridicules people that love animals. Trump has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Not one. He is an utterly vile excuse for a human being, which says nothing good about the judgment or character of those who persist in supporting him.
Christ, even Hitler loved dogs, and he wasn't very nice, either. for the terminally obtuse.

(8,747 posts)That's one reason that in my youth I set out to find Cat Guy. Found him, married him, have three kitty bebes with him (plus hooman kids).

I think most cat-hating guys were once little jerks who pulled a cats tail, got scratched, and grew up to be big jerks.

(8,747 posts)than the cat-hating guys or even the cat-indifferent guys. The feline haters usually feel entitled to control both women and animals, and (unlike most dogs) kitties don't comply with that nonsense!
Here's to Cat Guys:

(10,280 posts)had the scars and bruises to prove it. One time when we were trying to catch a mama cat and her babies, he got hold of two kittens, then fell down the stairs, but he never let go of those kittens. We got the whole family and he was badly bruised for a few weeks, but that cat family got sp/neutered and were adopted from the animal shelter. He was a fierce supporter of equality and justice and, though he died in 2004, I am sure he would have supported PBO, PJB, and VPKH!

(1,121 posts)We were given male Tuxedo litter mates born in my sister's closet not long after we met. They were fantastic friends and lived 20 & 22 years! Other lone male adult cats came to us over the years - all very special.
Now we are so fortunate to have met "The Whisker Sisters" nearly 5 years ago at our local shelter when they were just 7 weeks old. One is Calico and the other Tortie. We are a very happy family!

Glad your wife converted you to Team Cat!

(26,544 posts)that once or twice had a dog, but no other pets. We were quite happy with no animals, and had two sons.
When we bought a house in Boulder, CO, it came with a cat. I was quite happy, and husband adjusted well. Fast forward a decade or so. Husband met another woman he decided he'd rather be with. Darn! Anyway, what I find hilarious is that she is something of a crazy cat lady, and had seven at the time they got together.
I think right now they have two or three.

(9,233 posts)don't mess with cats or women or anything but your own asshole JD Vance. Will bring a chuckle when Trump fires your ass.
A Maine Coon would bring a new pecking order in the White House. The Secret Service would have a new supervisory cat for starts.
Given time, HCOTUS, POTUS then VPOTUS.

(13,233 posts)Dog and cat die and float through the clouds to heaven, suddenly finding themselves in front of God, sitting on his throne. The dog extends a paw, scurries around spotting and delivering Gods slippers, wags a happy tail and says, Master. As he settles at Gods feet, the cat approaches and sits down. Slowly he checks out the enormous elaborately and elegantly decorated surroundings, and looks straight at God. All of the angels hold their breath waiting to hear what the cat might say to his Lord. Finally it comes.
Youre in my chair.

In a statement announcing what they are calling the Million Meow March, the cats wrote, J.D. Vance apparently thinks he will reap political rewards by attacking cat owners. Instead, he has become the Kristi Noem of whisker world.
He may think that cat owners suck, the statement continued. But you know what really sucks? Hillbilly Elegy. We couldnt get through the first ten minutes, and we cats can look at almost anything for hours.
The cat controversy was just the latest headache for Vance, who has also struggled to explain why he demonizes childlessness but opposes IVF.
