Several people have sent me this news item published on December 4, 2015 on Northwest Cable News: “Pacific Northwest has more ‘cat ladies’ than anywhere else“.
That article cites the Seattle Times story “Are you a cat lady? Seattle area has 2nd-highest number in U.S.” published on November 17, 2015. Their stats are based on a new Nielsen Scarborough survey. I couldn’t find a copy of the survey, although I’m dying to see the details. I mean, what about single MEN with cats? I know plenty of them, myself.
Gee, is this why Portland was the first PNW city to have a cat café? (It’s Purringtons Cat Lounge, in case you’re interested.)
Ahh… I knew there was a good reason for my moving here!
