I was asked by aunt to kill 4 adorable cats today and sincerely within me, I wasn't really happy about it.

She claimed they have been disturbing all through the night and when I visited her, she asked me to help her kill them.

Why do Nigerians hate cats? Is there anyone keeping them as pets?

Please share...

You took the words out of my mouth! The way they look at you is something else. The only good thing about cats is transmission of evil spirit tongue

my mum keeps cat as pet to avoid rats.Rats can b more dangerous than cat.she is a very godly n devoted christian.she does not really attribute too much negativity or evil in keeping cats.

I understand that they can b used as agents of witchcraft n d rest but that does not mean any cat u see is EVIL.they are animals for crying out loud!...just as u av dogs,birds n goats.any other household animals can equally b used as agents of darkness.

its funny to me how some ppl can just b frightened at d sight of it,b it far or close to dem.I tell u cats are vry lovely pets!

The other day at d office, u need to see how our new ant (lady) shouted wen we told her cats used run around on d ceiling n how we resumed office one morning to see a little puss trapped in btw d burglary proof n d glass of her window in her office. she was like 'cat! cat! I don't want to see any cat here o'.We were just starring at her.lol. The real witch may not b d cats...

We should first knw dey are equally God's creature before they were being used as agents.
so STOP the DISCRIMINATION!!! lolzzz.

There is just something about them that makes me feel all animals belong in the bush. tongue

Lol... it's the superstitions most of us grew up with and then, something about their eyes and creepy nature

But truly, it's largely unfounded angry

I adopted two stray kittens I found abandoned. I like cats, they are aloof and independent. I like animals in general. And I've met too many human "winshes" (people with bad behaviour) to be worried about any animal. I'm more afraid of humans than cats. smiley
