I used to breed & show cats, so what category does that put me in?
The most I've ever had is 11 cats-- 5 adults and 6 kittens (2 litters: four Persians from my cream female and two Abyssinians from my ruddy female). However, I had friends in the fancy who have had many more cats....
Animal lovers sometimes don't know when to stop. I personally started to feel overwhelmed when we had 2 dogs (my Springer spaniel and my husband's beagle) and 4 or 5 cats. Now I have allergies & asthma so bad that I'm not supposed to have cats anymore and even having a dog on the hypoallergenic list is taking a chance. I intend to take the chance some day, though. Now I'm just the lady that comes up and pets your dogs and talks to you about them.
