Lets delve deeper doc.....there has to be some reason for it. Did your grandma make you sleep with the cats (that she showed more love for) or a neighborhood dog terrorize you? I'm just always surprised when people just out and out hate any type of animal....course you hate most people too....
I don't hate animals, LOL! They're just absolutely repulsive on a visceral level I lack the vocabulary to express. I also have incredible senses of smell/taste so being around them is pretty much unbearable.
"Hate" implies I would harm one and that's untrue. I pet or play with dogs of friends and even offered to keep someone's Cane Corso for a few weeks while they were a guest of the county.
Cats are the most filthy, disgusting thing God has probably ever created and any dude with a cat is probably a homo.
My kids have a dog, cat, birds, hamsters, lizard and probably something else... I won't even go in the house anymore.
No chicks cooter or company is worth putting up with animals for someone like me.
