like, why do all poor people have several cats? is it because cats embrace the hobo lifestyle or because they ward off evil spirits or some poo poo? regardless they're a giant money pit and poor people shouldn't have things that make them happy and they definitely don't deserve anything to be proud of.

1) cheaper to own than dogs 2) crippling depression typically coexistent with poverty somewhat offset by animal friends 3) actually most rich people I know have a shitload of cats (ok in all fairness they are bred and expensive as gently caress but still) 4) stray cats are more common than stray dogs (due to stray cats having better survival skills than stray dogs); also go into any Petco and there's like 40 cats up for adoption for every 1 dog I hope this sociology report has been helpful, OP Chumbawumba4ever97 fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Jul 8, 2014 |

Sounds like we should be feeding cats to the poor, since they're so numerous.

my humane society reported a live intake of 1681 dogs and 1719 cats in 2013, not that big of a difference. however, 90% of those dogs were released (adopted or returned to owner, generally) alive, and only 72% of those cats were released alive with almost 2.5x more cats euthanized than dogs, despite the fact that in general, cats take up less room and food and energy to house. makes ya think

I think most stray dogs are lost or owners dumped them; most stray cats have kittens that are stray and the circle continues. you don't hear of many people doing "catch, neuter/spay and release" on dogs

Poor people, especially kids in college or kids out of college (see girls on Tumblr) like cats because you don't have to put an iota of effort into taking care of them like you would a dog or another pet, the combination of that and fetishistic obsession with cats on the internet these days have made them a darling and treasured object, but not really a pet. Most of these people like to look at their cats and go "Aww, cute." but any actual companionship is shallow because the cat is just a cute object to them rather than a companion.

middle to upper middle class people tend to work a lot and therefore prefer cats, because cats don't need nearly as much attention as dogs

Poors's Guide to Cat Ownership: 1. buy cat food. 2. Put cat food out in bowl on porch. It's best to locate the bowl on the side of the porch-recliner opposite the coffee can full of water and cigarette butts. You now own cat! Bonus, if your neighbor has a garden, no litterbox is needed! (Ask me about my white trash neighbors, and "their" unfixed male ginger named Boss that constantly fights other cats, raccoons, and people. His head looks like he's been sticking it in a blender, he's probably blind in one eye. Got both nuts, though!)
