I hear ya. I really don't understand why folks will go out of their way to tell me how much they dislike house cats when they know how special they are to me.
Meanness, I guess.

My new place was vacant for a while. The outside was over run with rodents. The three feral kittens I adopted cleaned the yard up snakes too.

Im a Greyhound person, best dog, if you can find one to rescue/ adopt nowdays. All mine have gone across the rainbow bridge, really miss them.Can not have pets where I live now but have a couple of mostly feral cats that I feed. One ole Tom is starting to calm down. Tamed a few last place I lived. Best to catch them, to vet to get fixed and ear clipped, not to bad.
Cat people. We had to put our beloved Oliver kitty to sleep at the end of September. 
We still have his fur brother Chessie. He's a good little guy. He just got a mouse downstairs. Extra treats for him after supper.
Oliver is the tabby, Chessie is the tiger.

Rusty er al, It's a macho thing. those guys insecure in there manhood bolster their manhood by proclaiming their hated for cats. I know, I was once guilty of it myself. I was one of the lucky ones I finally saw the truth, thanks to Frito.
Happiness is a cat sleeping next to you in the bed. We have 3 of them every night.
My wife rescued this little guy a few months ago. He's gonna be a good one I can tell, but I don't think he'll be a great one. When she was trying to come up with a name for him, she said, "I don't know what to call him, but he sure is a pistol". So I suggested Pistol Pete. He for sure is a pistol. He gets the zoomies every evening and tears around the house like a wild man. Hasn't torn anything up yet. She was worried about the dachshunds trying to hurt him, but Pete gives 'em hell.

I was never a "Cat Person" until one morning I walked out on my back deck and felt something rubbing on my leg !! I looked down and discovered a young cat. The cat was very quiet and loving and I thought that It problely was a neighbor's. The cat stayed around the deck and I put a ad in the local paper as I was sure that the cat was lost. NOPE, no response from my ad. After a couple of days I finally gave the cat some water and later some food. This darn cat considers this is her home and gets fed twice a day when my two dogs are fed. I guess now I am a "Cat Person".
Cats are kinda like dogs, but they're for smart people.

Well, I never heard of a someone's pet cat mauling someone to death. Can't say the same thing about dogs...
I love the big cats. Was all set to make a donation to a local zoo to spend an hour playing with a baby tiger but COVID canceled it.

Animals like people all have different personalities you just have to get to know them. I have been friends with horses ,cows, and other critters as well as dogs and cats.

I love dogs and cats, but I am just not a "little" dog person. I've had at least 1 cat and at times 3 or 4 almost continuously for the last 40 years. Since I downsized, after a divorce, and moved into the city, the new yard isn't really large enough for a large dog to run but I keep looking for the right one. My current feline buddies are great company.

These would be cool if they could be domesticated:

Meh, cats are OK, but I much prefer dogs.
I like most cats and really loved some. Right now we have two feral house cats that we adopted. My wife can sometime hold or pet them, me not so much. I can pet them sometimes at bedtime. Oh well it's only been a couple years. Someday I would like to have a real cat again.
They are sneaky little devils

We love cats and have always had one. One of the things that I love about them is their eyes,,, how their pupils can change depending on what they intend to do. Always a giveaway when they are ready to pounce. I am also amazed how they can stare you down as I have had to look away many times when they make their mind up not to be intimidated. Love our Smokey.

My cat is on my lap as I type this.
Five years ago she disappeared in the first week of December. After two weeks I started looking for another cat, a week later she showed up with a very well fed look.She'd been mooching off neighbors down the row.
