Welcome to Psych Central! I am a major cat fan. We have one kitty. My husband wasn't a cat person, but he was willing for us to get one. I think a lot of it is what critters people grow up with.

I know some people are uncomfortable with or even hate cats. I don't understand that. I don't think I would tolerate someone who is mean to my cat. To me, that says something about their character, since I do see cats as important to the owner. My cat helps me with my emotional issues.
