    I thought this was the Cat Fancy Forum. Maybe I better use my Navigational system more carefully.

    Yah, I feel discriminated against for not having a cat avatar and now feel there are too many cat avatars on PriusChat . . . especially since Gizmo, our siamese, wouldn’t pose the way I wanted - with FOB in paw - on the hood of our car. :lol:

    and there's the few of us who were on the forum for a few weeks before we realized it was PriusCHAT... not PriusCAT.

    I always assumed Cats were more closely related to Stealh Mode and Dogs were more like a Hemi.

    Hey!

    I *love* cat avatars.

    I have to admit that this thread prompted me to add an avatar (where previously I had none).

    Something about those crazy cats!

    Peace!

    I LOVE cats. I used to have a cat, but not anymore :cry:
    Talked to my gf about getting one. We agree to get a cat after we move in together (even tho she likes dog better).... when? which is still unknown :roll:
    But... did I mention I love cats?

    LOL! See...

    SEE!!!

    Coincidence? I think NOT! There appears to be a correlation between Prius's and CATS.


    I'd like cats if I weren't so damn allergic to most of them... Depends on the cat (for whatever reason, black cats won't make me sneeze unless I touch them and don't was my hands shortly thereafter), but for most, I'll go into a sneezing frenzy within 10 minutes. Without touching them either... :(

    There is definitely a connection! Note my screen name (ha ha). I have found it interesting that my Pri is the only car I have ever owned that the cats don't freak out in when going to the vet. (I have 4 cats and cats have owned me for well over 30 years, so it's not a coincidence). I think Toyota consulted with a focus group of 4-leggers before putting the Pri on the market.

    I am just going to have to get a digital picture of one of my friends' dog and use THAT as my avatar.

    So what should it be? Golden Lab, or Black Greyhound?

    Dan,

    Anything, even a dog, would be an improvement.



    Boy, I hope you know I'm kidding! :mrgreen:

    The likemindedness of folks on Priuschat about both my choice of transportation and companionship is one of the things I like most about being here!
