How are you defining "bad cats"?

Vicious. Anti-social. Clawing people. Biting constantly. The evil stereotype of which you speak.



Poison is far quicker than death-by-slow-torment, and all the traps I've ever used are instantaneous.

Apparently you've never seen a glue trap. :huh:

My mom's mouse problem increased when my cats and me moved out. I'm just saying.

Maybe INFP's just manage to get awesome cats.. my INFP friend has the sweetest cat ever. :D
She likes to be petted and doesn't get snippy.
I've seen cats which were more temperamental though..
I have a lot of friends who own cats.

Maybe INFPs are just better cat owners. ;)

ALL the INFPs I know I own cats (two or more). They are both lovely kitty parents.

Actually, one is an INFJ, now that I come to think about it.

Yes, I agree with that.
I just disagreed with the notion that all cats are "introverts", while dogs are in-your-face "extroverts". In my statement, I meant that specific breed of which I posted a picture and perhaps other breeds with similar temperament. I could have worded or explained it better.

Good point on the differences in breed and temperament. Still, my experience with most dogs is that they thrive on being out in the world and interacting with others whereas the cats I've known want human company *sometimes* (and other cats' company much less) but also crave alone time. I'm not attached to being "right" about it, though. It just amuses me to consider the possibility.

I kind of identify with cats, and the rabbits that run around the city constantly make me feel hungry...
