So I meet this guy 6 weeks ago, on myspace. For those of you who know what happened between my ex, Mark, and I last December, you know that we broke up because of an animal issue. Well "animal lover is a must" is one of the first things it says on my page. One would think, wouldn't one, that only people who love or at least tolerate animals would apply. So I get this guy and yes, he says he likes them, blah blah blah....So then the little inuendos start coming..."Do you have a lint roller" "Is there anything we can do about the hair?" Then pushing cats off his lap, never letting them lay there, never petting them, yelling at the dogs to go lay down....you know, the classic things that seem to be my lot in boyfriends lately....Anyway, the icing on the cake, he texted me at work Monday and told me Cubby peed on the living room floor. Now, my cats do not pee out of their box. Ever. So naturally I was shocked and dismayed, cuz I knew it had to be something wrong with her to make her do that. I asked him if he would take a paper towel and blot it and look to see if it was bloody. He refused. Would not do it. He said he didn't want to get cat pee all over him (all. over. him????? What??) and cleaning up after them wasn't his job. I didn't ask him to clean it, I asked him to look for blood. Anyway, he wouldn't do it. So when I got home, I searched all over in the area to find this pee he said was there. I felt, smelled and looked at the entire floor in that area. There was nothing. Cubby has something wrong with her legs, which causes her to squat weird sometimes. Not peeing, just squatting weird. Later that night, she did it again. She was looking at something on the wall and did it, and she wasn't peeing! Just sitting weird! Man was I furious!!! He had me worried all day, and looking all over for this urine, when she didn't even do it, and if he would have just done what I asked, it would have been figured out right away. Gah!
We have had some other issues and fights and I was contemplating leaving, but this takes the cake!!!
What am I supposed to do, make a list and give it to prospective dates to let them know what they're in for? Make applications for them to fill out? How the heck does anyone find "animal people" these days???
