The dilemma - dog person or crazy cat lady?

It's been a busy week, so Sweetie and I are hanging in tonight - wild, I know.  Since catching some of the Oscars the other day, I've been wanting to watch Dallas Buyers Club.  However, Sweetie is having a professional photo shoot tomorrow, so she requested that we watch reruns of America's Next Top Model (she actually referred to it as ANTM) so she can figure out what poses work the best for her.  So far we've discovered that drawing attention to her neckline with a bandana or diamond necklace would take attention away from her waistline.   However, this is the best pose she's got - we have a long night of work ahead of us...

Since my last blog, I realized I've been going through a bit of an identity crisis over the last two and a half years.  Shortly after I adopted Kitty Crackhead in October of 2011, I discovered an unforeseen love/obsession with cats.  This included typical crazy cat lady things such as watching endless cat compilation youtube videos as well as purchasing (several) cat articles of clothing.  I have grown up with dogs my whole life and always considered myself a "dog person."  However, I whole heartedly jumped into the world of the crazy cat lady (I mean, I'm almost 30, single and writing a blog about a "pet" on a Friday night).  However, since fostering Sweetie, I find myself straddling the fence between being a "dog person" and "crazy cat lady."  Therefore, I figured I could address this dilemma by making a list of Kitty Crackhead's likes and dislikes, as compared to Sweetie's.

Kitty Crackhead's likes:
1. Cat food
2. Trying to stealthily hide herself so she can attack me unexpectedly

Kitty Crackhead's dislikes:
1. Belly rubs
2. Butt scratches
3. Cats
4. Most dogs
5. Car rides
6. Some people
7. Vacuums
8. Hair dryers
9. Washer and dryer
10. Winter

So, this probably makes it sound like Kitty is an evil crackhead, which in fact she is not almost 25% of the time.  However, it's interesting to see some of the behaviors that I adore in cats would be completely unacceptable in dogs.    Am I a cat lady or a dog person????? - screw deciding.  I'm both!

  1. Can't wait to see her pictures! BTW I have six dogs and two cats here so I am more the crazy dog lady. I like my cats though.
