The cats treated like a baby!!

Ohhh man! I recently got a cat right, but my mum and dad treat it like royalty, like its a baby, seriously, like they talk to it like a baby, and not normally, like you could mistake them for talking to my daughter!!
it really grates on me. and the other day i accidently hit the cat off the door when i was coming in from work and i got a mouthful saying not to do that. i didnt see the damn thing did i!
Arhh. its just a freakin cat!
Is it normal for them to act this way?

    Oh I have three cats and I think it's totally normal. You get to know their personalities after a while, and their habits, just like a baby. Apart from they don't grow up or talk. And they're fluffy and cute and adorable!! When my cats were kittens one of them was nearly cut in half in the doorway because my dad wasn't looking and he was closing the door. I screamed just in time but it scared the bloody hell out of me, thought mah baby was gonna be squished D:

    Yep ur jelouse even if you don't realize it! It's not the cats fault but ur parents love u all the same! I'm a single mum of a 2&4 yr old and have 6 cats I call my fur kids ( & I'm no crazy old lady) but it dosnt mean I love my bubs anyless . Try getting to know & play etc with cat , I know I adore it wen all my kids & cats get along so u win in that way , the cat will enjoy it and u may even lerarn to love him .. They have many benefits :)

    yeah its normal, but i do think sometimes people go a little overboard. i hate it when my parents yell at me and right after talk to my dog and say how cute he is and shit like that and act so nice to him right after yelling at ME! arrrggghhhh!!!

  • Sounds to me like your just jealous (whether your aware of it or not, and im not saying this in a harsh way) becasue your parents are giving the cat alot of attention and not you, the same with the other guy who hates the cat. the same is with my bro, we have a dog and he hates him, the other day max got into his room and got muddy paws on his bed so my bro threw his sports bag at him and he was wimpering and it pushed him to the floor and we all had a go at him it was really harsh, and hes allways like Why dont u jsut marry the dog!?!. cus all the girls adooreee him. hes obv jealous and i think u r too (:

    lol my mom's friend does that w her cats. Gypsy Rosebush sat on her throne for years being pampered and primped & having to do NOTHING but sit, eat and play. Now that that one's dead she bought another cat and called it "Angel" and at first Angel was jumpy and scared, but she quickly adapted and now she too sits atop her kitty throne, motionless, doing nothing, wanting nothing, like the Buddha. She's a lil' schmoofums

    A pet is part of the family, you should treat it with the same respect as you would anyone else. Sometimes people do over spoil their pets, but hey, they're just having fun.
