Cat Ladies Documentary: part 1

CAT LADIES is a one hour verity documentary that unravels the real story behind the oft-ridiculed 'cat lady' - a cultural stereotype and figure of ridicule for women of a certain age with too many furry companions. Through the intimate portrait of four unique 'cat ladies' we create a sensitive and emotionally honest portrait of women whose lives and self-worth have become intractably linked to cats.

It's not the number of cats that defines someone as a 'cat lady', but rather their attachment, or non-attachment, to human beings. They create a world with their cats in which they are accepted and in control - a world where they ultimately have value.

Ok, it's really legal to have more than 100 cats inside of a small house? I'm traumatized and I can't imagine what it smells. Say me where they live and I won't move into their neighborhoods. I love when the woman says that she has dreamed that she breastfed her cat. Why don't they interview a psychologist?

@emscollins19 Toronto has by-laws of the amout of animals we are allowed in our homes, but not everyone follows that rule. I know for my city the limit is 6 but many people go over that limit. As for your friend if that is the situation they are in you should make a call to the local human society or spca

I would love to date a cat lady.

This is depressing. Forever. Alone. This is what is being adressed as "hoarding".

[calico26]

This will be me in 20 years

I can't even begin to imagine what 16 cats would be like? Just the logistics of it. How many litterboxes? What's feeding time like?

[heat45jc]

This moron flushes absorbent litter down her toilet?

[brinegret]

Something wrong with this.

So THAT is what happened to all those man-hating Feminists of the 60's and 70's.

"I had a dream that I was breast-feeding my cat" Not creepy at all....

[oliviaisgod]

This will be me in the future if i never get laid.

[MrMap4921]

I only have 2 cats at a time because when you have 3 you have crossed over into cat-lady-dom. LOL

[AshtrayanConvict]

I've had so many great clothes ruined because I was too lazy to clean the cat box, so the cats just pissed and shit on piles of clothes.

So.....This is an illness right?!?!
