For Women with ADHD ADD Who Want to Connect

How many AD/HDers are also Cat Lovers?

It just seems like there are a lot of AD/HDers I have met or talked to that are really cat lovers. I just wonder if this is a coincidence. . . is there something to it or are there just as many dog lovers and I just gravitate to the cat lovers? Let me hear back.

I love all animals. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats and a baby kitten. I just lost 2 cats; very sad. My daughter had a Beta for a year then he died; she wants a hamster, another fish, and a horse; yeah, we have no space or money to keep up a horse.; ▶ Reply to This

I like dogs also. when I took a test I came out to like both equally. I prefer big dogs. but yes I have been drawn to cats since I knew what a cat was. all the big cats lions..............etc, have always been part of it too. I love leopard trim on anything, every summer I change the bedroom to the leopard comforter and hang the tiger and leopard pictures back up

Im a big horse person too though. I can't function with out a cat or horse; ▶ Reply to This
