There are karmic sins: what can be said about people who don’t like cats

In this article I want to draw a line between such views on the attitude towards cats as: who are just cat lovers, and who are crazy cat lovers.

So read:

1. What is ailurophilia?
2. Who is at risk for this disease.
3. The parasitic cause of the disease is toxoplasmosis.
4. What does our state think about the number of cats in an apartment?
5. Did Hemingway suffer from ailurophilia?

Ailurophilia is a word of Greek origin, which means: ailuros is a cat, and philos is love. In psychiatry, this term is applicable to those people who pathologically love cats, that is, suffer from a mental disorder.

There are also such concepts as:

• Ailurophobia – fear of cats;
• Ailuromania is an unhealthy interest in cats.

But that is another topic . Here we talk about people who passionately love cats.

It has been noticed that in many cases this disease affects lonely old women who are no longer needed by anyone and have no one else to care for them. In this case, cats help them cope with loneliness and fill not only their life, but also their home with their presence.

You've probably seen stories on TV more than once when neighbors complain about old ladies who have a lot of cats at home, and sometimes there are just too many!

But unfortunately, it is not only old, lonely grandmothers who have lost their minds who are at risk. This painful attachment can occur in both old and young people. Both for women and for men.

Who are these people who passionately love cats:

• Lonely old men and women;
• Just lonely people who have lost their loved ones;
• Closed people;
• People who, due to their bad character, do not get along well with others;
• People who are sexually attracted to cats.

Is ailurophilia contagious?

American researchers in the field of parasitology from Stanford University have substantiated the fact that the parasite toxoplasmosis (Toxoplasma gondii) “zombifies” its victim and makes it inadequate.

This microorganism invades the amygdala, changing the set of conditioned reactions in the brain. In nature, this parasite causes fish to jump out of the water and grasshoppers to jump into the water.

This is where a person’s “crazy” love for cats comes from. This is why some people love cats so passionately. Do you want to know where stray cats come from? Yes, sometimes from fellow cat lovers. I highly recommend following the link and watching the video.

I will now give only two examples of this pathology. I am not a psychiatrist and I found the information on the Internet. But they shocked me.

I really love cats

A young woman, 28 years old, has a family - a husband and a six-month-old son. She writes on one forum. Her confession is very long, I quote only excerpts from her revelation:

I love cats very much and I feel like my mind is going crazy. Now we have four cats at home. We bought our first Cornish Rex kitten at an exhibition in 2007, when I got married. I'm allergic to cats, but I managed to cope with it...

A year later, I picked up Motya under the hood of the car... Then Sovushka, abandoned at the dacha... Miloushka is an adult kitty from my husband’s work...

What a joy it is to buy toys for kittens, teach them to go to the toilet, to caress... I study the habits of adult cats, watch how they communicate... I am happy to go to the doctor with them regularly....

Before going to bed, I always check if all the cats are in place... Every hair and cat claw is precious to me. It’s even a pity to throw away cat hair...

At night - an obsession about stray cats and kittens that need to be sheltered...

I collect everything related to cats - souvenirs, figurines, photos... From the Internet too... I am a baptized Christian... I pray to the statuette of the goddess Bast.

I read what was going on at the poultry market... I wanted to buy a machine gun and shoot these creatures... Stopped by the thought of my son and husband...

I hate people who don't like cats... That's how I hated my friend and her mother who walked past a stray kitten...

I was told that when a child is born, everything will pass... Now I am dreaming of a fold cat, and at the beginning of the month my friends will bring a cat for foster care... If this continues, I will have a lot of cats...

We have a separate cat room at home... I can’t shelter all the cats in Moscow... What should I do? ...

My most cherished desire is to devote my life to cats... Help me, I'm going crazy...

When there are a lot of cats at home, you don’t need a husband

Another example. This story happened in Israel.

You won't believe it, 550 cats found shelter in the house of one married couple! And it was all the fault of his wife, a passionate cat lover.

My husband filed for divorce because his life was unbearable. The house was simply overrun with cats. “As soon as I sit down to eat at the table, cats immediately appear and steal the food!” . … It’s impossible to go to the toilet… the bed is always occupied…

No reconciliation could be found. The woman chose to leave her husband.

Room healer

The domestic cat has a special mission - to convey the energetic and emotional situation of all family members. In a prosperous family, a cat pleases with healthy activity. In a house where relations between the residents are not going well, quarrels and scandals constantly flare up, and the cats become aggressive and want to do mischief. It happens that a cat in such a house is constantly sick.

In the event of a sudden change in the behavior of a four-legged fluffy, home owners should analyze the atmosphere in the family. Cats will react especially painfully to quarrels between owners. It is interesting that these animals are able to analyze the situation and support the injured party, or rather the one who is right. This can be understood by the animal’s affectionate behavior. This is how the animal encourages its owners in its own way.

Anticipating your partner's needs

Our pets cannot tell us about their desires, no matter how much we ask them. Animal lovers make better partners because they learn to read between the lines and provide what's right for the ones they love. As one researcher said: “Neither babies nor animals have words to express their desires, and therefore those who care for them must anticipate and satisfy these needs.”

Best parents

Raising animals is a lot like raising children. Even as adults, cats can understand enough basic words, gestures and body language to know almost as much as a toddler.

Pets test their patience and show emotions from time to time, just like children and teenagers. If your partner can treat a pet with kindness and compassion, you can rest assured that he will also be a good parent.

Cat lovers know how to give tenderness and comfort. They know how to make their partners always feel comfortable and cozy.
