    one snake (maybe even one reptile) is enough to be labeled "That Guy." what's the limit to the number of cats before you're labeled "Crazy Cat Lady"?

    also if you think about the sexist implication of "Crazy Cat Lady": lots of cats = lots of work which means she pays more attention to her cats than she ever would to a suitor. maybe it's a jealousy thing? but there's definitely no jealousy when it comes to snakes; most are pretty simple to care for.
    Good points indeed.
    To me, the cat lady has too many to take cae of responsibly for her health as well as the cats.

    Cats are all over the porch and inside the house. Odor is impossible to control. The litter boxes are constantly full. There's always cats that need to be fed and watered. Neutering is usually not an option, so her cat collection grows faster than the snake collection of that $million dollar kid in Texas.

    Basically there is the appearance that the cats are not being cared for at all.

    Now the snake guy, is just considered just as odd because his pet(s) is/are something that is the majority of the population's top phobia, with the attitude of "the only good snake is a dead snake".
    The more snakes he has, the odder, crazier he is.

    My friends and family consider me "that guy".
