Not offended! I've always been a cat person until we got a dog. She's been gone ten years. I miss my dogs and cats, probably miss the dog more. However cat's can be loyal, on their terms. Every cat I had got in my face if I cried and didn't leave me until i stopped crying. My last cat slept on my pillow behind my head, on my head if I allowed. Now we have another dog, sane breed. He's so loving and sweet.
