I love cats. We used to have pet cats at home and my sister and I had a nice time naming them, taking care of them. My favorite cat is one in white color with black designs on it. I am sad that we are not allowed to keep pet animals in our new appartment. My grand father never allowed us to keep a black colored cats. He said that black cats are the rebirth of devils and it will bring bad luck to family. Do you like cats? Have you ever had a pet cat? How do you feel about that?

Cats are awesome! I've always had a cat throughout my life. Right now I have 3 cats and a dog. I've had a few gorgeous black cats over the years too...your grandfather is just buying into a false superstition. A cat is a cat no matter what color...lol They are a bit devious and mischevious but devils...no.

You'd be better off with mdium length. Short haired cats usually shed worse dur to the thickness of it. They lose more dander in the air. It's harder to clean up too. My husband is also allergic.

Yeah, I love cats daliaj, especially those adorable little kittens. There look so funny and while playing with one another impishly. I had kept a Siamese cat before. Its fur is white in color. It looks really elegant in every gesture. Later on it gave birth to 3 little beautiful kittens. Due to not having considerable time to take good care of them I then gave them to friends who loved cats. I would like to pay a visit and curdle them each of them when visiting my friends during my leisure time. Happy posting

I really never had a pet of my own but i'd like to have a persian cat along with a silky black daschund. I hope that i can have them soon and also to be able to take good care of them. When i retire from work maybe i'll have all the time in the world to spend with pets but right now i am not sure about it.

I love cats. But my parents do not let me keep one. I hope to have a Scottsish Fold. Black cats don't always mean bad luck. Instead according to some saying, they drive away ghost. Though I don't really believe the two, I would like to tell you that your father should know there is another saying about the black cats

I love cats just like you. I like dogs but I love cats as they are very affectionate especially to their owners. My sisters also love cats like me... unfortunately, our mother hates animals and there are times that she kills our pet when we are not at home. We had a pet cat once. I don't have a pet right now but I will in the future when I have my own house. Your grandfather has superstition beliefs thats why he said that cats are evil.

I am scared of cats. I get nervous when ever I am around a cat. the way they look at you and hiss and their nails. I feel they will strike at any given time because they are moody... on the other hand I love Dogs Sorry :o)

I am not a huge fan of cats. I loved them when I was younger, but now I prefer dogs. I did have a cat growing up and she lived to be almost 20 until we finally had to put her down. Her name was Patches, and I do miss her from time to time. We do have her ashes though in a cute cat shaped urn.

IF comparison between the cat and the dog, i will tell you i like the cat more than the dog.I think the cat is cute and it doesn't bite me surely.I don't like the dog because it likes biting.

Mama Cat with her Kitties - Mama Cat with her very cute Kitties
I love cats and it has been in our family as pet. We take good care of them and their babies. We have an orange cat at home and her kittens were in the same color. If i may, i will share the picture of our pet cat in this forum. We have previous cats colored white, orange and black (tri colored cats). But the ones that are living now with us is the orange. We also feed other neighbors cat when they come to our place. We also have hamsters and fishes in aquarium. I would also like to keep a dog or an intelligent birdy. Anyway we don't have a problem if these pets would mingle along with each other as long as they would not fight. We also teach our cats some tricks. Before our kittens use to poop in the bathroom where we can just flush out his mess easily. We trained him to do that since we were living in a flat before. Now that he is a grown up cat, he stays with our auntie. But the pic i will share here is the cat that lives back home with my mom.

Well I like cats very much. We used to have cats when we were small. We all used to enjoy a lot with them. It was great fun with them and watching them playing was really a great experience. There were many cats in our house as every time that cat used to give birth to her kittens at our place. But they were making our house really dirty and so sometimes my father used to throw them out. Among those little kittens was one cat which survived for a long time and so it was really memorable one in my life but once we were shifting we didn't find him.

I'm sorry I do not like cats at all. They scare me and I think they have a weird behavior. I prefer dogs though.
