It s not that I hate cats, I don t. At the risk of getting in trouble at the next Guy s meeting, I ll even say I like cats. Not like the North Vietnamese like cats, but I do like cats.
Cats are truly fine animals and have many admirable qualities as pets go.
Cats tend to be cleaner than most pets, grooming and bathing themselves on purpose - unlike a dog, for instance, whose idea of a bath is getting caught in a drenching rain. Cats don t bark at all hours of the night, bay at the moon or chase cars. Cats can keep a rat population under control. That s a good thing, as Martha Stuart would say. The problem I have with cats is simple.
