He's called Geordi and he's a Siamese cat so very chatty but sometimes more like a dog. He's great =)

[nonperson]

Everyone should have a cat.

[Cacoethes]

I do love cats but I'm more of a dog person if I had the choice.
I love all animals though.

Siamese cats are cute!

[Sketchy]

Such a cute name. Ours is Molly. She’s a little black kitty. She’s so tiny.

[nonperson]

I'd happily have a dog too actually.

Used to have a German Shepherd for a bit.

[Sketchy]

I’m scared of dogs.

[nonperson]

They can be quite intimidating, particularly when they're not trained properly.

[Cacoethes]

Love German Shepards.
I much prefer big dogs to the little yappy ones!
My family have a collie puppy. Shes only about 14 weeks old. She's a blue merle colour and she's adorable!

Yes dogs can be indimidating.

My support worker brought round someone new from the crisis team to meet me one day and she was terrified of my cats. It was such a shame. And my support worker was completely winding her up saying things like my cats used to walk in circles around one of the support assistants who used to come to my house!

I don't like it when people don't respect peoples' fear of animals sometimes.

[Sketchy]

I can sympathise with anyone scared of animals because of my dog phobia.

[nonperson]

Exactly, but some people don't understand it at all and think people are just being silly.

Dunno why I'm ranting about that really, heh.

[one_step_closer]

A fear is a fear. It doesn't matter what we are afraid of it's still a horrible experience.

Geordi and Molly sound v cute. Have to agree with Beckie though (I know Lorraine shock horror) more a dog person.

Lorraine I promise you ever met my dog Lady she'd cure the phobia-she gets beaten by tiny dogs cos all she will do is submit even if theyre half her size and the worst thing she would do to you is lick you death-she's even trained out of jumping up now so she wouldn't come near you unless given permission

its never silly to have a fear. fear is fear whatever it is.

Dogs have lovely soft tongues, cat's tongues are like spikes.

[Cacoethes]

Exactly.
If someone is scared of something then you should respect that.
My dad has a giant spider (she's about the size of a plate now) and once she got lost in his flat for about 2 weeks. Literally everyone refused to enter his flat until she was found!
Tbh i wouldn't want to go into his flat even if she was in her tank!
She is enormous
