C = Cats

| Our newest kitty, Jasmine. We adopted her last fall. |
I can't remember the largest number of cats I've had, but I always want at least two around. They need the company of other kitties – especially for times when the humans aren't around. Or when the humans neglect them because they're too busy with human activities.
We currently have Zeus, Huckleberry, and Jasmine. The boys are about 9 years old now, and Jasmine will be 1 in July. Abby attended a birthday party at the county animal shelter ... and we brought home a souvenir. Much to the hubby's dismay. He threatened to take her back, and I told him over my dead body. While he'd probably never admit it, I do think he's warmed up to her. She's quite the character. And the boys are old. I had forgotten how much fun (and mischief at times LOL) kittens are! :-)
We have a dog, too – unfortunately. Mr. Ham had a dog growing up, and we got the dog for his sake. This experience has confirmed that I am most definitely a cat person. I'm fine if we never get another dog after Sawyer, but I will always have at least two cats. Always.
Cats make me happy! :-)

I like blogger blogs better anyway. They just feel more friendly. I've had both dogs and cats. I probably am more of a cat person, but with allergies in my family we haven't had a cat in ages.
Visiting from the A to Z Challenge. New follower here, nice to meet you!

Hi!
I am a cat person myself. Cats are so much more independent. They can take care of their selves pretty much most of the time. You don't have to let them out to potty or bark at things. Your kitties sound awesome. Thanks for stopping by my place. Have a great day!

Karen ~ Allergies are the worst! :-(
Sherrie ~ Exactly why I like cats better! ;-)
I love cats too. More than dogs, though I like dogs a lot. But we had a small house growing up, so we had cats. I think I'd prefer them anyway, because they do their own thing and yet they are snuggly. I often think that people who don't like cats feel that way because you can't control them!
Melissa ~ I think you're right. They cannot be trained the same way dogs can. But, then, they don't generally need it, ya know? They find the litterbox, and use it. No housetraining required. They can self-feed. They even bathe themselves. What's not to love? ;-)
