Portland Oregon: Cat-Lady Capital

[Moralgy]

I know where to move now when I start adopting my 2000 cats in a few years!

[Matchles]

So I guess Porkland is now the capital of Fat AND Cat ladies.

Waayyy off on the fat portion. Portland is ranked one of the fittest cities every year. You want fat, look to the south, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi.

LOL. I don't own a cat...pets are pretty commonplace out here, almost everyone owns a dog.

There was that chicken thing a bit back

Edit: There's a lot of pets in Oregon in general, never knew it was any more or less than other states/cities

Yeah goats/chickens are big here. I don't know if we actually have more pets than other states, it just seems like it. It's pretty dog friendly here for sure.

Hello fellow Oregonians (:

Hello How do you like Salem? Portland is getting too fucking expensive, $1500 for shitty one-bedroom apartments now, $2400 in the nicer areas.

I think 3 are enough if they say they are like children to them.

2. The moment there's more cats than people in the household. A single woman having a cat is already a warning sign tho.

I kindof think that a cat makes more sense than having a dog if you're single, dogs are more high maintenance.

it appears we have a cat sympathizer on our hands here.

[Celista]

Nothing wrong with cats, I just feel like there are more perks to dog ownership.

Once they become cat-ladies, there is almost never a way back.

Thanks to the stigma (that is usually true)

[derpkitteh]

i've promised myself i'll never get another cat or pet after my current ones die, but i'll probably wind up with a new cat one day.

proudly a cat lady, i guess. don't live in oregon though.

[Pull My Finger]

Love them pussies.

Salem grows on you. There aren't a ton of clubs and venues, so you need to make your own entertainment. Anything downtown and south is nice.

A lot of radio and pop culture associate the northwest with crazy, obese, fat single women.


I carried that assumption in my shot at Portland. I was wrong, as demonstrated by two posters in this thread I think.

Salem here too Yes Portland is insane for rent. Not bad here, we pay 720 for a decent 2 bedroom...and we have 2 cats!

I've never heard that, SF/Sea/Pdx are typically at the top of the list for fittest US cities. Even Anchorage tends to do well on that list...Honolulu too...not exactly part of the Northwest but w/e.

Bah need to move. Trying to figure out if my best bet would be to jump ship to Seattle, move directly outside of Portland, or try another part of Oregon...coast is pretty cheap..was considering Eugene/Ashland but I heard the economy there is poop.
