I have to go with the cat–or cats, if you will–when I was growing up it was definitely uncool for guys to like cats. But I did and still do.(Actually, TV commercials seem to be trying to indicate guys can be cat-lovers too, now–progress!!)Actually, I’m one of those (unusual?)people who deeply loves both dogs and cats, but I also have to be a cat-man if forced to choose. I love their purring and their supposed indifference to people which for some becomes a deep love–I love their tendency to feel out your feelings and treat you accordingly–I love the cat curled in my lap or with his paws on my chest, kneading me a little bit(OK–small ouch)-I love the glow of mystery and privacy that always surrounds cats, but that they share with you in their own way and at their own time and pace–As a member of ASPCA I donate and fight for all animals, but cats are first, last and always my friends-JBP
