All of us - cat lovers and cat ladies - just love to talk about our cats and cats: this is our kitty, our fat and lazy bastard is that. But at the same time, we do not even realize how much our pets are able to tell about us. And not just to tell, but to reveal to the initiate all the secrets of our soul and personality. And in order not to be unfounded, today I decided to talk about what you can find out about a single man by the gender and character of his cat or cat, and because of how a man treats his cat or his cat.

I'll start from the floor pet. Since it is he who is incredibly important when drawing up a psychological portrait of a man - a lonely, attractive partner for marriage or a romantic relationship, living alone in his own or rented housing. So:
If a man gets a CAT, then this means that he is not only ready internally, but also dreams of marriage. About what the temper of his cat says, and the attitude of a man towards her, I will tell a little lower. In the meantime, I am the witch Olga, I will make only one conclusion - a man dreams of having a girlfriend or wife so much that he is no longer able to wait for the realization of his dreams, and therefore filled the empty space next to him with a cat brought from the bird market.

Should I be jealous? Oh no, no need to be jealous! But still, be prepared for the fact that at first you still have to fight for the heart of a man, in which even if he decides that you are his soul mate or destiny, the cat will occupy at least 50% of the space.

If a man started a CAT, it means that he does not have enough friends. And the bigger (fatter, if you like) the cat, the more he is allowed, the more anxious you should be. Because this suggests that friends will always be much more important for this man than you.

VICTIMS OF WAR. I will pay attention to the fact that meow or purr is allowed. If the animal is forced to live under the sofa, referring to the territory of the apartment as a jungle full of dangers or a place of street fighting, then in front of you (we mean the owner) is a hidden everyday sadist. Unsure of himself, full of complexes, he chose an unfortunate animal for self-realization, having treated him to such an extent that all that evening, unblinkingly, look at you from the dusty couch darkness.

IF EVERYTHING IS ALLOWED TO AN ANIMAL - it jumps on the table, it tears wallpaper and furniture, it meows deafeningly at the first smell of delicious food, then this also characterizes a man far from better side. Before you is a weak spineless personality, unable to withstand even the slightest difficulties. Such a man will always adhere to only one model of behavior - to immediately give up, immediately bend over, immediately go on about. And therefore, if you are looking for someone who will build a career, develop well, thanks to which he will be able to later support his family, and at the same time will allow you to wipe your nose with boasting about his successes to your girlfriends, then you have found the wrong one.

COMPANION CAT - he is allowed to go gray in a certain place, he is introduced to you (and not vice versa!), he has his own bowl, his own basket, his own post for scratching his claws, his own tray. What can be said? You got a great man who can not only organize the reality around him, but also achieve his goal without suppressing anyone around him. He will also treat you with attention, respect and even care. But only until you start to miss the tray.

"POOR LITTLE PUSSY". There are plenty of men who treat their kitties like they can't digest food on their own and move around the apartment without the help of a miniature wheelchair. Entering the house, they immediately grab the cat in their arms, immediately begin to lisp, talking about it (and they can talk about the cat all evening). Be sure to feed her several times. Several times they check her ears, eyes and always under the tail. They ask hundreds of questions: “How did you live?!”, “Missed you?!”, “Glad I came?!”…

There is no reason for joy in such behavior. Before you is a man who will love you only as long as you simulate oncology of the last stage or a fracture of the spine. As soon as you show yourself as a strong, independent person, he will immediately leave you, because he is satisfied with only one kind of love - safe - love for those who completely and unconditionally depend on him.

Before you is not a man, but a treasure! He will always be honest, never betray. And if you can love him, then it is almost guaranteed that he will love you in order to stay with you until the end, and be just as caring, kind and sweet until the very old age.

SMELL OF CAT URINE. As soon as you smell it, immediately turn on the internal signal "DANGER!!!". If the whole apartment, to put it mildly, smells of a cat, if there are leftovers of food, shreds of wool here and there, and the cat also sleeps where he wants, without leaving a single whole chair, then you have an alcoholic or an alcoholic who has gone to the eyeballs (and I talking about a man). Or a person who treats all aspects of life, including family life, with the complete indifference of a drunkard or drug addict.

It will never matter to him whether you become pregnant or not, whether you have something to eat and what to wear, whether your children are full and healthy with him. He will always live on his own, and his family members - separately. Moreover, even if you spend your life under one roof, you will never be able to get over the wall of spiritual indifference that a man has surrounded himself with, or drag him over this wall to yourself.

THE OWNER OF A MEDAL-WEARING CHAMPION. The cat or cat of this man will be a rare and (and you will definitely be told this more than once) very expensive breed. The whole wall will be hung with orders sewn from bright ribbons. The pet tray will stand, almost in the middle of the room. And the refrigerator will mainly store his food. You will also be offered:
- I buy a cat (kitty) veal liver in the market. Would you like to fry a piece?

Refuse or not - the choice is yours. Something else is important - in front of you is a boor, a hysteric and a complete egoist. A cat for him is just a thing that he can be proud of. The cat interests him only as long as he is able to win and bring kittens. He does not make friends with her, does not talk and does not play. He even shows it like a collar cut from rare fur. And in the same way, if you become him, he will show you, provided that at least something in your appearance or position allows him to be proud of you.

ROLLER COASTER. Men who make various funny, and sometimes even designer things for their cats and cats deserve indisputable attention. We mean various cat pipelines - pipes and shelves hung on the walls and under the ceiling so that the animals can feel like they are in the wild. As well as building houses, complex wheels for running, mechanisms for throwing toys, sharpeners for claws and much more. Such a man, oddly enough, the most normal of all. Firstly, he takes care of the pet, and a priori he will take care of you and your children. And, secondly, and no less important, you will never be bored with him, because he will always figure out how to color your life with him.

"THIS IS MY CAT!" This man brings you to him, the cat runs to him, the man catches him with one hand, picks him up, shows him, with a smile says the phrase I have already voiced, “This is my cat!” and immediately releases the cat. After that, he notices his pet only when he jumps to him or to your knees. And the rest of the time and attention of a man belongs only to you. At the same time, the apartment is clean, does not smell of anything, the furniture is intact, and there is no wool lying around anywhere. And if a man thinks about whether his pet is full, he does it silently, without interrupting you, most likely, just looking into the bowl in the corner.

Here is the most healthy attitude towards a cat that a truly full-fledged man can demonstrate. And he is self-confident, mentally stable, friendly and reliable, as if Appliances issued in the middle of the last century. With such a man you will be calm, fun and good. With one exception - if he wants to cheat on you, he will cheat on you. The truth is that he will definitely return home, because he never forgets those who trust him and those who are waiting for him, not trying to limit his freedoms.

But a thoroughbred cat or a cat, or it is a mongrel picked up at the entrance, you almost do not need to pay attention. Although many psychologists say that the breed of a cat or a cat can also tell a lot about the character and disposition of the owner. But if you are interested in the topic, I will continue it in a separate article.

Everyone is different and that's great. Some people think that it is impossible not to love cats. Others love dogs and don't understand how you can sympathize with naughty cats. Still others are indifferent to both those and other animals. The purpose of this article is not to find out which of them is right. And in order to figure out what people who love cats are, outlining the portrait of a typical ardent cat owner.

They are arrogant, fearless, do not know how to obey and never grovel before a person or other creature. I really love cats, but they really are - affectionate and hardy, thoroughbred and yard, short-haired and fluffy, they all show independence to one degree or another. All of them daily prove that man is not the crown of nature, not the master and not the head of the situation. So why do people love cats, why are we so attracted to waywardness, independence and stubbornness?

Psychologists, astrologers and other specialists are adherents of a certain division of all mankind into groups: by hair color, by type nervous system, by date of birth, by zodiac sign, etc. Of course, there is also a characteristic of people who love cats. How else? After all, the choice of a four-legged friend largely depends on the worldview, habits and qualities of a single person. It is believed that a typical cat owner is a straightforward, frank, sometimes even excessively, confidently moving towards his goal and has a heightened sense of justice.

Cat and independence

"Of all God's creations, there is only one from which it is impossible to make a slave even with the help of a whip - this is a cat."

Mark Twain

Ardent dog lovers consider the independence of cats the main reason for their dislike for these animals. The dog is simple and understandable. She must obey, she must consider the person the master, carry out commands and act, obeying not instincts, but a wave of her hand or a demanding tone. It’s a paradox, but, according to cat lovers, it’s impossible not to love cats precisely because of the wayward nature of the mustachioed touchy. The cat does not know how to obey, and for this they love her. A wayward, independent and stubborn cat cannot be broken, you can only negotiate with it by concluding a pact on the conditions of living together. In fact, under the same roof with cat lovers is not a slave, which they consider dogs, but a true friend, companion, faithful comrade.

Another reason why people love cats for their independence is the closeness of these animals to nature. Even a cat that never leaves the house behaves like a real predator, hunting improvised prey or fighting off an impudent person who thought to cut her claws. As V. Hugo said, God created a cat so that a person could have a tiger that can be stroked. And we take advantage of wonderful opportunities to touch wild nature, to have a piece of the jungle at home and observe the habits of a real, albeit small, tiger cub.

cat and curiosity

No, we are not talking about the famous feline curiosity, but about the curiosity of a human explorer, a person who looks at the world from the position “I want to know everything!”. The characterization of people who love cats as an object of study is very simple, but at the same time very interesting. These are people-observers who do not disregard even mere trifles: “It is strange, the birch turns yellow on the left side, and the maple standing next to it - on the right. ... Why ?!”. Watching the behavior and habits of cats is endlessly interesting. It is much easier to explain this or that decision of a dog, because these animals are very similar to people. But the cat is our opposite. And the more you study it, the more questions arise - a godsend for an inquisitive mind!

The cat and the hearth

The cat as a symbol of the hearth is not new. However, this image is unlikely to ever cease to be relevant. A cat, cozy and fluffy, curled up on a comfortable sofa, purring with pleasure, licking a fur coat, lapping milk, basking in the sun or near the fireplace ... This is warmth, calmness, reliability, habitual way of life.

If a man loves cats, he certainly appreciates women's care, pays attention to cleanliness in the house, is grateful for the rich borscht and the newspaper carefully left on the dressing table. This is a man for whom the generally accepted image of a mother and life partner is of decisive importance. He does not take the fulfillment of women's duties for granted, but is sincerely grateful to his wife for creating a cozy atmosphere. On the other hand, if a woman loves cats, she appreciates peace and order, trying to surround herself and loved ones with care and warmth. However, like cats, sometimes she becomes cheerful, eccentric, unpredictable - such people will never be bored with each other.

He, she and the cat

Psychologists believe that if a man loves cats - he really loves, and does not just consider it possible to have this animal at home - he treats women as equal beings, does not show rudeness, does not consider the attitude correct: “Your place is in the kitchen, your day - March 8". If a guy loves cats since adolescence, he will look for a companion, reminiscent of the character of these independent creatures - independent, intelligent, proud, a little bitchy and self-confident.

Men, for the most part, do not like cats. Some hate a particular cat, and some hate the entire feline race. Men especially do not tolerate a cat whose owner is their girlfriend. Below are ten reasons for such fierce male hatred towards these cute animals.

1. Cats are independent

Men like to keep such animals that depend on them and cannot do without their help. This does not apply to cats. There are also such militant specimens that will be able to stand up for themselves on their own. Any feline creature at any moment of time very sensitively captures the mood of the owner. They may not respond to calls, hide when they are about to be taken to the vet, and show other signs of disobedience.
Cat lovers know that their pets should not be carried as much as they want. If the cat wants to be let go, she will have to give in. Otherwise, she will scratch and bite, and next time she will not want to be touched at all.

2. Cat litter

Many do not get cats precisely because they will have to put a cat litter box at home. If it is not cleaned in time, the cat will find another place for the toilet. Cat habits are strong, and if a cat is used to going to the toilet where she wants, it will be a real disaster. If the house has more than one cat, then everyone will have to purchase a separate toilet, otherwise the cats will constantly fight. Therefore, the cat's toilet must be cleaned every day, and even better - after each visit to it by a cat.

3. The habit of sharpening claws

Cats love to sharpen their claws, and it's useless to fight it. Scratching strengthens the cat's muscles, sharpens the claws and helps new ones grow. The only way to save carpets, furniture, stairs and curtains from damage is to create a special area for the cat for the claw point. But even after that, you will constantly have to make sure that the cat does not do its favorite pastime where it is not supposed to.

The most correct decision would be to buy a special stand for the animal and put it where it likes to be most of all. If the cat shows no interest in the rack, rub something tasty on the rack. You can keep your cat's claws away from furniture and wallpaper by chasing them away with a water gun, orange peel scent, or special means sold at the pet store.

4. Shreds of wool throughout the apartment

Not everyone is pleased to go to the toilet barefoot at night and step on shreds of wool scattered throughout the apartment. For this reason, many choose not to have cats at all. These cat patches are formed when a cat licks itself and the hair enters its mouth and then rolls into clumps. Cats have rough tongues and this prevents them from spitting fur out of their mouths. Sometimes wool can be accidentally swallowed by them. In most cases, it easily passes out of the cat's body, but when there is too much hair, it can cause serious problems with digestion. To prevent this from happening, the cat should be brushed regularly. This will provide the cat with a massage and protect it from swallowing the wool. If a cat has swallowed a hairball, you can give it Vaseline or vegetable oil to make it easier to get out. It is also necessary to give your cat food rich in fiber in order for the animal to have good digestion.

5. Bad behavior

Many cats behave very strangely. They rush around the apartment, climb on the cabinets and, without warning, jump from them onto the back of the owner passing by the cabinet. They also pounce on his legs when he rolls from side to side in his sleep. Living with cats is often like walking through a minefield. You never know what they will throw out next time. Men can't stand animals that are difficult to control, and cats are just that. Most of all, opponents of cats are annoyed when animals jump on their laps. If a cat is frightened by another animal in the apartment, it starts to hiss and may show aggression towards that animal. Cats also love to stare people in the eye. If a cat is afraid and they try to brush it off, she thinks that she is being played with, and begins to pester even more.

6. Allergy

Many people are unable to interact with cats due to allergies. It is believed that it occurs due to contact with cat hair, which causes the eyelids of patients to swell and redden. But it's not. The allergen is found on the tongue of cats. When they wash and lick their fur, and then lie on sofas and carpets, the allergen spreads throughout the apartment. You can reduce its impact with a damp microfiber cloth, which is recommended to regularly wipe the animal's coat. It is more efficient and safe way processing cat hair than bathing an animal. If you want your bedroom to be free of cat hair and dandruff, you will have to forbid your cat from entering this room, and bedding will need to be washed in hot water at least once every two weeks. Also, to combat allergens, you will need an air filtration unit and a vacuum cleaner. Wash hands with antibacterial soap after each contact with animals.

7. Scary stories about cats

Some argue that men are afraid of cats because they associate them with witches. It is known that in some cultures they bowed to cats, while in others they were hated and feared. Witches in ancient times were called women involved in the healing of the sick and obstetrics. It was believed that it was cats that helped them in their dark deeds. There were beliefs that the witch herself could turn into a cat at any time with the help of black magic. Therefore, hundreds of thousands of cats (sometimes along with their owners) were burned at the stake, buried alive, drowned and killed in other ways to please the church and other religious communities. Even today, people are afraid of black cats. They are believed to bring bad luck. This superstitious fear is not supported by the facts, but to see in the night sparkling eyes cats are not for the faint of heart.

8. A cat is an animal for women

Men prefer dogs and women prefer cats. It has been noticed that single women of the age begin to start more than one cat. And all because they are not enough male attention. In fact, cats are just right for men, as they do not require special care, they are independent and clean. If the owner works hard and is away from home for days on end, cats will not suffer as much without him as dogs.

9. Wool and smell

Despite their independence, cats love to be stroked. Climbing to the owner's knees, they leave their wool on his clothes. Cats love to mark their territory, generously flavoring furniture and shoes in the hallway with their jet. Cats have glands all over their bodies that secrete odorous substances. When cats rub against their owner's legs, they do it not only because they want to be scratched. They leave their smell on the owner's feet, which warns other cats that the owner already has a cat.

10. Cats and dogs

Animal lovers fall into two camps: dog lovers and cat lovers. Dog fans admire the devotion and courage of their pets, while cat lovers are proud of the self-sufficiency and pride of cats. It is believed that cats, unlike dogs, cannot be physically punished, otherwise they can take revenge. Dogs need a caring owner, a cat is its own mistress. The owner only gives her warmth and food, and she catches mice for him and sometimes allows herself to be stroked.

Some people have a dislike for cats, and they cannot explain the reasons. Psychologists say that this is an occasion to seriously think and change something in your life.

Most people treat cats very well and positively. And there are those who do not like them, they try to drive them away, the animals unnerve them, annoy them, it is difficult for them to even be around.

And, what is noteworthy, for some reason people do not have a transitional state, that is, indifference to cats: either love or hostility, sometimes even turning into hatred.

Scientists have long tried to solve this riddle. It has long been proven that the purpose of a cat in human life is not at all the extermination of mice and rats.

This animal has a unique bioenergy system that resonates with the human biofield and is able to restore it.

It is not for nothing that cat owners claim that their pets can relieve headaches, reduce blood pressure, calm, normalize sleep, and cure other diseases associated with energy aura disorders.

But it turned out that in addition, a cat living in the house is an accurate indicator of how good the situation is and how positive the energy of the house is.

If everything is fine in the family - the cat eats well, sleeps a lot, often washes, very clean.

With scandals and difficult relationships in the family, the cat begins to get nervous, annoy the culprit of the problems with his cries, stops caring for himself, will mess up and spoil personal belongings.

Surely you have noticed more than once that if you offend a child, a cat will definitely come up to him to caress - in this way she restores peace of mind.

And if there is a quarrel, the cat will definitely react to it and will always take the side of the one who is right, and not the one who screams more.

Psychologists have figured out the main types of people who can't stand cats.

More than 90% of people who are addicted to alcohol or have alcoholic parents do not like cats.

Hostile relationships with cats in women with a difficult fate, undeservedly offended by men, in people who in childhood were subjected to physical and moral abuse.

People who have karmic sins - criminals, rapists - are simply afraid of cats. thieves and deceivers. They feel that the cat knows about these secret sins on the energy level, so they drive the animal away from them.

Negative emotions towards cats are also experienced by people who consider themselves underestimated, they understand on a subconscious level that this is not in vain, but consciously want the whole world to admire them. And cats feel exactly what is on the subconscious, that is, the truth, and this causes rejection in such people.

But cats are needed by a person in order to restore his energy, change his aura and karma. Therefore, those who do not like cats should seriously think about and change their lives in order to make it harmonious and bright. And then the relationship with cats will improve.

A "strong and independent" woman with a dozen cats is a well-known collective image of an old maid. But what happens if a man is in this role? More and more representatives of the stronger sex prefer not to have dogs at all, but gentle purring creatures. Researchers believe that today's young people are thus giving battle to stereotypes about masculinity, according to which the best friend of a real man should be no less formidable dog, and give the green light to a more intelligent type of masculinity.

They no longer hide their feelings

For example, Facebook has communities Crazy Cat Ladies and Cat Guys (“Crazy Cat Women and Cat People”) and It's Okay to be a Cat Guy (“Being a cat lover is normal”).

“For a long time, cat people were stereotyped. Unmasculine. More soft than hard. More feminine than masculine. It's time to show the world that it's okay to be a cat person, ”says the It's Okay to be a Cat Guy page.

On Instagram, the Hot Dudes With Cats page has over 70,000 followers. The #guyswithcats hashtag has been used nearly 35,000 times.

Celebrities such as presenter Hamish Blake, singer Ed Sheeran, designer Karl Lagerfeld, actor Russell Brand also post pictures with clawed pets on their accounts, accompanying them with gentle captions.

Giving pets beautiful clothes and photographing them in it is normal, say “guys with cats”.

As, however, and celebrate the birthday of your favorite animal.

And also spend time together and sleep in the same bed.

And even kiss.

What is he, a cat lover?

Love for cats has long been considered such a female prerogative that there were no gender statistics on pet owners.

Researcher Roy Morgan has recently changed this situation for the better - however, so far he has studied only the numbers for Australia. There are 2.3 million cat owners in the country, one million of them are men.

The expert found that loving cats men are often staunch liberals: 29 percent less likely to consider homosexuality immoral and 24 percent more likely to vote green in parliamentary elections.

Cat lovers also prefer board games and reading to sporting events and nightclubs, and generally consider themselves intellectuals. And most importantly: contrary to stereotypes, 70 percent of cat owners are married or in a relationship, and do not spend their evenings alone.

They lacked tenderness

Heather Fraser teaches sociology at Flinders University and studies a subject she calls "cat-masculinity." She wants to understand what the cute pictures and affectionate posts about cats say about the modern perception of masculinity among the stronger sex and in society as a whole.

According to Fraser, several factors influenced the formation of the online community of cat lovers.
Firstly, this is urbanization: it is more practical to keep a cat in a city than a dog (you don’t need to walk and you don’t need a lot of free space).

The researcher believes that the love of cats allows modern men to show their gentleness and kindness - an opportunity that was previously rarely provided to them.

cat stereotypes

For centuries, researchers have analyzed people's love for cats, but came to rather categorical conclusions.

“The hot temper, loud barking, observation of the dog make it the personification of the masculine; graceful drowsiness, timid meowing, vindictiveness and hypocrisy of a cat are reminiscent of women, ”wrote The Journal of Education in 1891.

At the beginning of the 20th century, images of cats in women's attire were used in American anti-suffragist propaganda to show that ladies seeking rights and freedoms should not be taken seriously.

In the Victorian era, the image of a "strong independent woman" flourished - an old maid who spends her days surrounded by numerous furry pets. Both the image and the expression "crazy cat lady" have survived to this day, being reflected in Internet culture. Perhaps, with the appearance of male cat lovers in the information field, the cliche will lose its relevance or acquire more positive features.
