[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a cat owner my whole life and a cat lover. I have three currently. OP should never have a pet and definitely sholdn't have pulled a bait and switch on her DH. That's despicable behavior.

However, having a cat is not nothing. Yes, it's definitely easier than having a dog. They are much more independent. [b]BUT, they are hard on my carpet (bald spots from scratching, stains from puking). Some of it is my fault, not enough scratching posts some of it just having a cat. My furniture also took a hit. There is also cat hair everywhere. And if you have a cat who is not fully litter box trained or happy they will pee on stuff and that smell is HORRIBLE. They also climb on everything so people who think their cats aren't on counters are naive. [/b]

All of those things I'm perfectly willing to live with because I love cats. But I don't fault people who don't want to live with them. However, lying to your fiance is pretty horrible. OP didn't JUST change her mind. She knew all along.[/quote]

I really dislike cats for the reasons bolded and would not enjoy the idea of living with one, but I still think OP is trash and needs to just accept that they are going to have a cat. Her husband and that cat are a packaged deal which she knew and is now backtracking on. People are bonded to their animals and asking him to cast it aside is cruel, to the cat but I think even moreso to the husband! The time to bring this up was loooong before the "I do." If I were DH I would never look at OP the same way again. [/quote]
