With that kind of money can't you just get an apartment then have yo cat there?

 

Anyways, maybe try to get her to a pet store and let her ease into it.

Let her meet some cats and see that they aren't dangerous, or make her read up on them.

The more you know the less you are afraid of stuff, usually.

Bit, seriously, why is she against it? if we knew that we would more easily give some reasons to get a cat.

Don't ... get ... one!

Trust me they are awesome in many ways but they shed all over and are great at ruining furniture.  They also do like to eat electrical cords.  I really wanted to get a cat but every single time I thought of the negatives they definitely outweighed the positives.

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

x99 is a motherboard right?

The naked cats?

I prefer house pets with hair, but I suppose a cheapish cat would be a good argument.

Mine don't.... They only really shed on the floor which is tile so it's an easy cleanup and they never eat cords.

Well, my cats used to bite at them for a while but never anymore.

It can probably be trained away like my cats have been.

It won't make people sick unless they are allergic or perhaps have asthma.

 

It will be some fur but not as much, it's only 1 cat ..

Anyone else notice the $5,000 build with the $15 speakers.

I lol'd. I'm ashamed of how much I cheaped out on the speakers. I've never gotten around to upgrading them

A short hair or shouldn't shed everywhere. They also don't make people sick. They're also inside toys, as outdoor cats can indeed track home disease.

My cat sheds a LOT, and it's still only moderate amount more than my wife does. A cat that doesn't shed a lot should hardly be noticeable if you have at least one woman in the house with long hair.
