Does the kind and/or number of pets a person keeps influence your initial feelings toward him/her? For instance, if a person has a large number or cats or keeps a python in their apartment. Can you tell something about them? Does it bother you? What kind of pets would you consider "normal"?

Can you tell something about them? Does it bother you? What kind of pets would you consider "normal"? Someone with a large number of pets in a small area is a turn off because of the potential hygiene issues. Someone who is gonna be in my kids lives with me are not going to be able to have any WILD, or EXOTIC animals such as snakes or tigers. Domestic animals like dogs, cats, hamsters,,etc,,, are fine(as long as they are kept clean and out of areas like the dining room and bedrooms). |

What if they have pets that are illegal? Yeah, Im not going to risk having my kids taken over someones pet,,,,or asking them to help hide or be dishonest about having the pet. Some pets should not be illegal,, but if I knew it was, I wouldnt take the risk. |

As long as they are all well taken care of I have no problem with what kind or how many. Myself I love animals and one that has animals that are well taken care of tells a lot about the person themselves.

Sure it does... If you have 10 cats... That's too much.. Unless your running a cat circus in which you take them on the road to perform.

Last night a girlfriend came by to visit. She stayed the night, talked about her sick dog all night too. In the morning I told her that I did not want to see her anymore. In the future I will not date women with dogs. BTW, she was always drawing the line; "If you want to be with me, you have to be with my dog too since we are a team."

Dogs are like young children, you really can't leave them alone for too long, cats are like an older teen, you can leave them alone for a day or two.
For many people they are family and thats just the way it is. Often it is a package deal. I don't mind as long as the house doesn't reek. |

I wonder how dogs and cats survived before we domesticated them,,,,survival instincts?
I think it is more about an owners need to feel needed that makes them cause pets to be so dependent upon them that they cant 'survive' without them. |

dogs are pack animals. they are traumatized when seperated from their pack
and people are their packs people who have dogs (ususally) bond with them. and it is as hard to be away from them as it is a family member new people and dates and such have to be aware of that. they are not enetering a relationship with just one person but a bonded pair. and some people can't take that and its just too bad for them |

As long as they take care of their pets well, I don't see an issue. I'd date someone who has pets over someone who didn't like animals any day.

Have only met one guy that did not care to be around her needless to say he is not.   Hey even most that I know that have been around her and don't care a lot for pets have taken to her. So yep it is a package deal they deal with her or they are no longer around she was here first. I would think different if she was mean but she is not. She just loves the attention.
