Simple cat poll (non-cat-people please participate)

[Blue-Jay]

I know it's a DU cliché, but I'm curious. What's the percentage?

Me: cat. Here he is:

[fleetus]

1. But won't people with cats be more drawn to the subject of this poll?

How about:

"Is your pet a..." (poll)

[Blue-Jay]

3. True.

Lemme edit.

[fleetus]

5. That works too.

:)

[Gman]

2. I'm very allergic to cats

[myopic4141]

4. In between

Had cat, cat died (18 yrs, 8 mns old), getting new cat after remodeling.

[Blue-Jay]

6. That qualifies as "Cat".

Sorry about old cat. Congrats on new cat.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

7. my kitties

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. Here is my cat...who kind of looks like a giant your cat.

;)

[ironflange]

42. I don't need to post my cat's pic now

She looks just like this one, only she's a lot less. . . uh. . . "portly."

[amazona]

9. sorry severe allergies

Loved them as a child but unfortunately being exposed to multiple cats from the cradle on ended up causing severe health issues for me.

11. OMG!!

Cutest. Kitty. EVER! :bounce: :D

God I just want to squeeze him stupid! :D

(And for the record, our animals are as follows: no cat, 1 English bulldog, 1 pug, 1 ferret, and 2 children. :silly:)

;)

[Blue-Jay]

14. Thanks! He knows he's cute, the little bastard

Here's one I took a minute ago with my crappy webcam. Ash is getting bigger.

[prolesunited]

17. Hard to decide

who is cuter, you or the cat. ;-)

Sorry, but I think Ash wins. :hi:

[ET Awful]

21. Gahhhh, he can't out-cute Quinn :) :) :)

NOBODY out-cutes Quinn!!!! :) :) :)

[Blue-Jay]

26. GAH! What the hell is that? A feather duster?

"You've not seen nothing like the mighty Quinn....."

[ET Awful]

27. You just quoted where his name came from :)

He was given to me by a lady I work with, and that song was playing when she first brought him into my office.

The name seemed to fit :)

And he does make a rather useful duster since you asked ;) :) :)

And I'm just kidding, Ash is awesome, he reminds me of a cat we had when I was a kid. His name was Smokey, and he was HUGE. We lived in a farming community and one day this cat comes in through the bathroom window dragging the neighbors big-ass rooster, still alive crowing and clucking and all that, it was a fur and feathers war zone in our bathroom :) :) :)

[northofdenali]

12. Yes

that's simply a cat. :P

[Asteroid]

15. I had a cat

But we had to give it away because myself and two of my siblings are very allergic to cat dander.

[pmbryant]

13. What? No option for '3 cats'?

That's where this household fits in. :-)

--Peter

[alittlelark]

35. Only three.....

Sheeesh, got you beat!

[Ladyhawk]

16. That's a cute kitten!

I personally like feathers and scales.

I had insomnia one night and took this with my webcam:

[Blue-Jay]

25. That's a beautiful snake!

Red & Black, friend of Jack

Red & Yellow, kill a fellow.


I miss my speckled kingsnake, Checkers. He's currently residing at the Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington IL.

[Ladyhawk]

53. Aragorn says, "Thankssssss."

[banana republican]

18. I have 3

but they won't let me vote 3 times

[ET Awful]

19. Quinn is sitting here glaring at me telling me to write something nice. .

So I'm going to :).

I didn't used to be a cat person at all until I got this little fella, and he's a blast to have around. I feel like a proud daddy :).



He's my buddy and my alarm clock :)

[fleetus]

41. Just when I thought my cat was cutest...

Along comes this Quinn. Well, it's not fair bringing kittens to a cute contest. They should be in a separate league.

[1monster]

20. I have six cats...

Maybe you should put an option for multiple cats.

My feline friends are: Mr. Squeeks and his sister Gatita (black and white harlequins), Amber (tortoise shell) and her two off spring Manchester (soft beige) (aka Mannie) and Mithrandir (gray, of course) (aka Mithy), and Annie (tirtoise shell)...

[Bertha Venation]

23. us too - six cats

those are the indoor ones, anyway.

Blue Jay, Ash is beautiful.

[peacebuzzard]

22. Love all animals. I have 5 dogs and two chickens.

My sister had a cat I truly loved. He was so very smart. Miss him.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

24. It's not that we don't like cats...

We just can't have one. Skip's allergic, as is his brother. Now, I'm all for getting Skip onto meds to help the allergy and his brother never coming over when we get a place, meaning he couldn't bring his whore with him(long story), but Skip doesn't like that idea too much. :evilgrin:

28. My cat...

I fed her Alpo once & she hasn't been the same since.

[ET Awful]

29. LOL . . . she'sa cutie :). Does she sit in your lap and purr?

n/t

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

33. This dog is so sweet that if she thought it would make me happy,

she would learn to purr. :smile:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

30. Such a cutie!!

My bf's parents actually have a dog that thinks he's a cat. It's hilarious. And he's never been around cats. He just acts like one so well, you wouldn't know it.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

34. Thank you! n/t

[Blue-Jay]

31. That's the ugliest cat I've ever seen!

Seriously, Aussies are the smartest dogs on the planet. (That's an Aussie, right?)

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

36. Spot on! Helpful to a fault. If someone broke into my house,

she'd help them carry things out.

[shanti]

32. awwwwww!

i love gray cats, have had a few myself. he's a cutie.

[Demonaut]

37. Let me check my refrigerator............................uh....yes

[IconoclastIlene]

38. two cats; one dog.

do I get a door prize?

[Blue-Jay]

39. Shameless kick

Note: I normally don't kick my own threads (not an attention whore), but I'm honestly interested in the results. So far it seems like we have a lot of cats. I don't quite know what that means, but it's interesting.

[MidwestMomma]

40. Three cats

Scamper, the tortie that thinks she's a dog. Walter, my big bad grey tabby with distinguised white markings. And the queen of the house, Patches, the tortie that rules all.

I love my kitties. And some days they even like me!

[freeforall]

43. Allergies! n/t

[Misinformed01]

44. Saddest Kitty story of the night

I have to look for a(n) (extremely appropriate) home for my Stinky Butt the Wonder Cat.

JanTheStudMuffinHusbandMichael has asthma, and no ammount of any drug or shot is going to make him comfortable.

I am interviewing people to make sure that she will never step a toe outside, or have to live with mean, cat hating dogs.

You cannot imagine...I feel like I am betraying my best ever furry friend. Actually, I feel maternal, and it's killing me.

[Pithlet]

45. Oh, I'm sorry.

I know that's hard.

[Misinformed01]

50. It's horrible, Pith

I kind of feel stupid whining about this on DU (hey, there are people here with health problems, one DUer is getting ready to lose his wife to an illnes....) but, she is my best kitty buddy, and it does feel horrible.

Steph

[Blue-Jay]

48. Question.

Where do you and Stinky Butt live? Ash could use a pal.

[Misinformed01]

49. Stinky and I are in NC

But she has her passport!

Naturally, we would need to talk...and it would have to be a trade photographs open adoption!

Ash is a total cutie!

Next week when Michael and I get settled in, can I send you a PM?

Stephanie

[Blue-Jay]

51. hmmm.

Not able to travel soon, sadly. Maybe a NC DUer will step up to the plate....

[Misinformed01]

52. no no

I meant, I would fly her on Delta.

In first class with all the other princesses! ;)

[I AM SPARTACUS]

46. cat, two dogs...

refugees all...Bosnian cat, Serbian dog (anatolian shepherd), all-American weenie...

Mistah Z, in his Bosnian holiday garb...

47. Okay Cat
