My cats in the New York Times
By Mark Fletcher
- One minute read - 127 wordsWell, not really, but I am quoted in this article on straight, single men who own cats. It’s a silly piece, which the author Abby Ellin fully admitted when we talked. And actually, I think I laughed through the entire interview, which I’m sure didn’t make me a good interview subject. Having never, you know, been interviewed about my cats before, it was an interesting experience. I can’t say that I necessarily agree that it’s only now becoming socially acceptable for a straight single man to own a cat (or two). But who can argue with the quote that “[t]hey make the best boyfriends…” and that “straight men with cats seem to be really secure and stable.” Hey, if it’s in the New York Times, it’s true!
