I'm allergic to cat hair which doesn't help.It is the only one of your eccentricities that some of us have to consciously forgive you for
We had a cat when I was a child and although he was a lovely looking creature he liked my bed!!
I've lived in a number of towns and cities and cats yowling at night is almost impossible to sleep through.
My main objection is if one person in the street has a cat then everyone has that cat, and the dug up flower beds and the cat shite and the noise.
Thankfully we don't get many cats here, If the dogs catch one they'll kill it. I've buried a few over the years.
