Getting excited about cat shit technology is not the only sign you're going to grow old with a passel of felines. Run your paws through this list to see if anything rings true.
10. You aren't afraid to commit ... to clay or clumping litter.
Lovers can be unpredictable, friendships as fraught as an old can of Friskies. But once you've found your lifetime litter, you know you've settled in for one less potential disappointment. Maybe you prefer the qualities of clumping to the coverage of clay. Either way, your dedication to feline waste technology is commendable.
Yes, hungry Rufus may paw your face at 5 a.m. and hulking Snowball may nearly suffocate you in the cold winter months, but if you believe no cat behavior is as irritating as a tossing, turning, snorting, bleating homo-sapiens bedmate, you'd best make sure your lifetime human love is content to spend a night or two on the couch every once in a while.
8. You got really excited reading that 'New York Times' trend piece about men who own cats
Sure, the NYT style section trend pieces are irritating, but if you secretly hoped this one about increasing cat ownership among single men was really, really true, you're in for it, cat lady. Whither the fairy tale about the cat lady who found her cat man and lived happily ever after?
7. If you see one more--ONE MORE--cat as a villain in a kids' program ...
Bitch-cutting, it will happen.

Posted 07/15/2009 at 07:05:39 AMThank you for the link to the article about increasing cat ownership among single men. I just recently adopted 2 cats and had to go through a lot of "Why did you get cats? Men get dogs." speeches from family and friends. It's good to know I'm not broken. ;)

Posted 07/15/2009 at 08:14:18 AMOh my... More numbers than I care to admit to. Whiskey is just adorable!
Posted 07/15/2009 at 09:21:57 AMNot that I didn't already know this, but wow I am officially a cat lady. I have been so pissed for so many years about cats always being the villains. Effing Tweety Bird.

Posted 07/15/2009 at 05:41:04 PMI am a fence sitter on this, the dogs (I have two) and the cat and I prefer the litter crystals... My cat also bitch-cuts the dogs anytime they get up in her grill... She goes all Mr Meowgi on their collective arses... Not sure if that makes me a cat lady? I think the dogs redeem me!
Hilarious list!

Posted 07/16/2009 at 11:54:29 AMI agree wholeheartedly with this list. Esspecially number 7, even as a child I hated seeing the cat always being portrayed as the villian.
