I don't know I think mad cat ladies get a pretty bad wrap too...and that's the thing...what's wrong with having a bunch of cats if that is what makes you happy? Why is there something wrong with people who have a lot of animals or who prefer the company of animals? I want to be a crazy snake lady too...I'm with Char! I would much rather spend my time with my animals than people most of the time. I think my family should move out and give me their bedrooms for reptile rooms...lol.
