I am sorry if this is in the wrong section. Please move it to its proper section if it is miscategorized.
This is not directed at just Sphynx, it is cats and dogs in general.
We have been wanting to adopt a cat for both a snugly lap cat for us, and as a playmate for our puppy Josci. We have had pets before that loved to play together, wrestling and chasing and pouncing on each other, having lots of fun. They were great buddies who loved to snuggle and sleep together. We would love to find a kitty that is also this way.
However I keep getting weirdos saying I am an 'animal abuser' and idiotic other things for wanting my pets to play together and that I should be in jail for violence and not be allowed to have animals? Wtf? They are saying my animals should be put down if they playfully nip at or play with each other. Again, wtf? They keep telling me that my animals will be viscous and get a taste for blood if they play together and want to attack humans and will have to be 'put down'. Um, no? I am confused at these lunatics. I no where said that I wanted them to fight or be aggressive or attack each other. I cannot possibly be the only person in the world that knows many cats and dogs do actually enjoy playing with one another. *eye roll*
Anyone else have kitties and puppies that enjoy playing with each other and what I can tell these idiots and morons who are putting words in my mouth, calling me names, and saying I shouldn't have pets? It is completely uncalled for, and I don't know where these peoples' heads are at or where they are getting these ludicrous thoughts out of what I am saying. Wanting a playful and friendly cat is not a crime and is not cruel.
Furthermore, even if my pet did bite someone, it would be for a good reason, either something is being done to them that they are not okay with, or they are frightened or upset. Animals have a right to defend themselves, and if someone is hurting them, they have a right to try and save themselves and get away. I see no reason at all to put my pet to sleep because someone else is trying to hurt them. We are a quiet couple and do not have people come to our house, so our pets are not required to be social with other people anyways. If my pet bites me, I know it was for a reason and do my best to remedy my actions towards the pet. Also, some pets have emotional problems from traumatic life experiences and are biters, and I personally do not blame them for it. I just make sure I treat them in an appropriate manner and do my best to not do things that trigger their upset. Some people are just psychos and do not deserve to have opinions. We love our pets very much and try our best to make sure they are as happy and healthy as can be. We spoil them rotten and pamper them to their hearts' content.
