First off, I apologize if this is in the wrong thread. I looked over the others and had no idea where mine fit in. If the administrator knows where this post would fit better I appreciate your help.

Hello, I have a very odd issue and I don't understand it at all. So, I have been dating my girlfriend for 3 months and she is a wonderful, amazing person. One thing that's a bit odd tho is that she loves cats, and I mean LOVES them. I'm much more of a dog person, but because I admire her I decide "what the heck? I'll try to be more of a cat person. So, whenever I see a cat I'll pet it or feed it or whatever. However, I noticed an issue. After I spend some time with a cat, I have this overwhelming urge to abuse them or kill them. Especially if they won't allow me to pick them up. This really frightens me because I'm not a violent person at all, I'm actually quite the opposite. It's just whenever I spend some time with cats, I constantly want to cause them harm. Please help me. I understand this is an odd question, but i haven't been able to find an answer online or anywhere. Keep in mind I don't have thoughts or urges like this about anyone or anything else, only cats.
