I am a cat lover!

since your husband doesn't want a cat, it's gonna be difficult to have a cat in your house. cats are sweet creatures. they usually stay with the owner's side and they want to be cuddled. so, you might just end up arguing everyday with your husband because of a cat. i wanna suggest that you keep your cat inside a cage. but that seems rude to the cat. you better have a one to tone talk with your husband. explain that you really want a cat of your own. make him understand. if he says yes to it, then lucky you. if he still does not want one, then, i think you should respect his decision.

I know how you feel, I have seen a man who hated cats change his mind after a kitten was brought into the house, because the kitten seemed to take to him before anyone else, he actually ended up really loving that cat but no other so maybe it could change his mind about one cat you never know...

I am a cat lover too but only want to feed them and I do not wnat them to come inside my hosue even though they do I still love them I do not chase them away but definitely not put them on lap

i love cats

I am a cat lover too so I can't even imagine your frustration. Is there a reason why your husband does not want a cat? Is he severely allergic or something? If he's not allergic I would try sitting down and having a heart to heart conversation with him. If that does not work you might consider doing some volunteer work with cats at the shelter or humane society or some sort of rescue group. At least you will have a chance to be around cats and helping them at the same time.

i hate cats!

I wish I could help you,my husband doesn't like cate either and I have 2. When we first got together I had 5, I have 3 away to good homes and kept the 2 oldest. I only did that because my landlord wouldn't let me have 5 cats and 2 dogs. My husband will not let the cats come into the living room or the kitchen. When they come out of their room he stomps his feet at them and they go running back into their room. Keep in mind that I have a dog laying on my new sofa and another dog laying on my lap, but he just can't stand them. To make matters worse, one of the cats peed in his work boots last night. I thought it was funny. He didn't. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't lay a hand on them. He feeds them, takes them to the vet, and HE even cleans their cat box every night, he just wants them to not be seen. Of course, they are always trying to snuggle with me and sit next to me and I let them but when he walks in the room he tells them to get down off the sofa or tells them to go away, all the while his dog is wallowing all over the sofa. lol I love my cats and I keep telling him that he doesn't want me to decide the animals or him because he would lose! I am trying to break this habit as I think that is why the cat peed on his boots, to get back at him. Just my theory. It's tough. I feel like I'm caught. You really don't want to bring a cat into something like that. Just wait a little longer, he may change his mind and let you have one. Keep trying to talk to him. good luck

I am so sorry for your predicament. I would have a difficult time living with a cat myself. But luckily (by design, actually) I married someone who also likes cats. My marriage criteria were simple: must cook, read, communicate, and love cats

You must tell him how important this is to you. If he loves you and cares for your happiness, he should say okay.

i have the same problem with my boyfriend, ands it tough. but you just have to work things out

Maybe you should explain it how cat inspire you. And ven it really2 become your favorite pets a long day before you net your husband. Many of cat lover love cat since they still a child. I like cat since I was on kindergarten. I think cat it's a funny, cute, and lovely animal. Maybe you should communicate this thing really careful to your husband. Tell him that cat have become sonething that cannot separated from you. Just like a hobby that your husband have. Maybe he will give some understanding for this problem

I am very very very very much a cat lover. When I was young, I had a cat but some guys killed it. Many Indians cannot tolerate Cats. I see many boys throwing pebbles at cats. When I was 8 or 9 years old, I killed a sleeping kitten by putting a Cement slab onto it. It was one the worst regrets of my life. Sometimes I keep thinking "Why I killed an innocent kitten?" I just want to cry for that kitten. Actually I was influenced by Indian bogus traditions of throwing pebbles at animals and harming them. I realized, what I did was a crime. AND I WON'T LEAVE ANY EXCUSE FOR WHAT I DID BEFORE. But Now, I am very much a cat lover. As a punishment from god, some guys killed my cat also. I just want to say God eight words......"Please Forgive Me. What I did Is Wrong".

If he loves you he will say yes..unless he is allergic to cat...

i love cat too but dogs mans bestfriend

My husband didn't want one either, but we just got one anyway. There was no way he was going to tell our 4 year old son that he had to get rid of it. He says he hates the cats, but I catch him petting and talking to them all the time.

I feel your pain. I am also a cat lover and it took me along time to convince my husband. I also had my kids helping me convince my husband which helped a little. We now have 2 adorable kittens that he totally loves. Just keep working on him little bit at a time. Take him into pet stores that have kittens or have cat adoptions going on and have him hold one of the kittens. He might change his mind once he feels how soft they are and hear there relaxing "motor" running. You never know. Anything is possible.

I suggest that u will prepare a delicious dinner with matching candle light on the table. Be sure u cook his favorite food. While u both are eating tell him how happy and how lucky u are for having him,how much u love him and u'l do everything just to make him happy more. Then intro now the cat issue...tell him how will u be happy if u have a cat in ur house even just one. Say it with a sweet smile while looking at his eyes. Hopefully it will work..hehe Goodluck!!!

i love the animals and my girlfriend too, specially the cat! she have two black cat very crazy!!!

yah i know somebody who doesn't like cat and i am the one person who don't like too. but you know it is a personal choice. try to think you also might not like something. everyone has something they can not just like that. what should you do that in this circustance? i think just try to understnad the concern of other person, what eactly he/she doesn't like and try to sort out that problem. you have to show little patient. try to understand the feelings and act accordingly. there is one more thing which i believe that people should not very stubborn. i might not like something, but as long as that is not giving any problem for me i try to adjust in situation. so you both have to understand each other

Hey, Maybe you could work a couple of hours a week at a vet clinic or a place for orphan cats or set up an outreach to place orphan cats in homes, just to let up on your craziness for them some, then maybe someday he'll understand and won't mind you getting one,
