why do old ladies and cats go together? Category: Pets and Animals why do old ladies and cats go together? think about it. whenever you see a crazy old lady on tv, they ALWAYS have about 50 cats living in the same house as they are. i was just watching a bbc documentary, and it was BASICALLY an ENTIRE documentary about crazy old women and the 50 cats they live with. BUT WHY? WHY CATS? why not goldfish! they are a hell a lot more cleaner AND easier to take care of!!!! when you think about it, cats are pretty smart animals, why are crazy old ladies attracted to them? perhaps it’s the theory of “if i have lots of cats, then their collective intelligence will offset my insanity”. well that is my theory. so i say we should start a campaign for these crazy old ladies, because POOR CATS. i mean, yes it is a crime to let old ladies go crazy without anyone to look after them but the cats man! they are like totally cute, they like totally need to be like looked after totally. fetch. i say we invest NOT in the welfare of these old ladies like trying to get them decent healthcare and also making sure they are looked after, but buying them GOLDFISH instead of cats. as i said before, they are cleaner and easier to take care of! PLUS when the old lady dies, there won’t be some half eaten corpse because the lady was eaten by her cats because they ran out of cat food!!! i am a genius! i should work for the government! cobra celia
