Kay Steiger joins the anti-cat chorus with her own home brew realisticat. It's about time that people started standing up to cat-lover hegemony in the blogosphere. Do your part before it's too late.

sir,

if i may ask, when shall we be gifted with the passing of this barbaric aversion which you so glory in? 'tis truly unbecoming of a gentlemen of learning and erudition to indulge in such sentiments toward god's creatures.

Maybe instead the blogosphere should stand up to the unreasoning division of individuals into either "cat-person" or "dog-person" camps; I've had and loved both, and I don't see why it has to be one or the other.

bravo & well said sir! onward and upward, what need is there for faction amongst fellows of good will?

sincerely,

This is all about your antipathy towards Sara's cat, Jelly, isn't it?

"This is all about your antipathy towards Sara's cat, Jelly, isn't it?"

I'm not sure you can blame Matthew. Have you ever checked out Jelly's blog? She fully admits that she's plotting to kill Matthew by sucking out his breath as he sleeps.

I found her post from last Wednesday especially chilling:

What jury would convict me? I'm just a cat!

I'd say his antipathy is entirely justified.

Fuck the hegemonic dog/cat binary. I'm throwing in my lot with the chinchillas.

Miss Steiger is young and lots of men want to court her. In twenty five years, when she's still single and has no kids (maybe an abortion or two under her belt) she may change her cattitude.

Happy Caturday!

Aha! I've figured it out!

Matt doesn't like cats because George Galloway pretended to be a cat on a British TV show. Then when he was ridiculed for it, when he started his radio program, he opens it with the theme song from the US TV cartoon show "Top Cat"!

Or maybe Matt just has an allergy...

By the way, as far as I know, cats don't suck your breath from you while you sleep. They have a more effective method, as a friend of mine years ago who lived in an Airstream trailer with a Siamese once discovered.

They climb up on your stomach when you're asleep, then do one of two things:

1) Leap high in the air and land on your stomach with their claws out. My friend would launch toward the ceiling...

2) Turn around, put their butts near your nose, and let one off. My friend would throw the cat the length of the trailer when it did that...

You know who else didn't like cats?

Hitler.

"By the way, as far as I know, cats don't suck your breath from you while you sleep."

Shameless cataganda.

I'll refer you again to Jelly's Blog where the full plot is laid out against Matthew.

I've always thought that cats were the liberal pet and conservatives liked those slobbery hierarchical canines. You really are letting the side down with this affection for the rigid authoritarians of the animal kingdom.

If you don't like animals, you have a black soul (like Michael Vick).

They have a more effective way of killing people. Just rub up against our feet at the top of a stairway.....

cats ARE liberals. independent thinkers and never slavishly searching for approval.
