Men Who Love Cats: Hi Bruce!


Bruce with his first cat, Hopping John (Hoppy), 1979-1981

What better way to start a new week than by meeting another man who loves cats?  Today we feature Bruce, self-proclaimed feline fancier.  I learned of Bruce's affinity toward kitties through his mother, Carole.  Carole writes a fabulous cat blog called The Adventures of Admiral Hertorb -- you really have to check out the daily adventures of this sweet little girl.  Bruce agreed to interview and I'm so glad he did! 

Catladyland: Have you always loved cats?  Did you grow up with cats?

Bruce: Pretty much.  We got our first cat when I was nine.  I have been domesticated since then.

Catladyland: Do you currently have cats?

Bruce: No cats here at the moment, although one or more will be here eventually.  We visit cats at friends' houses.  There are two we see quite a bit (Ava is at one house and Ossie is at another).

Catladyland: What do you like best about cats?

Bruce: They have all the traits people value in companion animals: loyalty, caring, playful, cute, protective, etc., but with a lot less bother than dogs.  Cats have plenty to offer and are not super-demanding in return. An added plus: cats are regal, so if they like you, you've got to be pretty cool.

Thanks, Bruce -- the feline gene runs in the family!  You are definitely one pretty cool cat-man.  And I agree, if a cat like you, it definitely says something about your character.  Cats can sniff out the good ones...
