Do you fit into the 'average cat owner' section?Just reading my 'pet people' mag from petplan and it has a census ON 'typical cat owners' do you fit into this? Average: 45years old fully employed with children choses a cat because they want something more to care for. or because they have always had cats. I couldnt be Further from this! ME: 25yrs old suffer from illness can not work. no kids, cant have them due to illness. just love cats & animals!

Nah I don't fit this, but then stereotypes are usually frowned upon for a reason. I've always had cats and love them, a good enough reason for me! |

Well, I originally got cats because diagnosis was that I couldn't have kids. I was much younger then, but am now approaching the cited age and apart from working almost full time, I do fit that profile!! But if I didn't have cats and was considering some now with the lifestyle I have I'm not sure I would make the decision, instead I'd probably wait until the children were a little older. |

*Snort* I'm 20-years-old, unemployed due to depression and social anxiety disorder, no children, and have cats because I'm a pet fanatic but they make me the happiest. |
