Not surprised in the least. Having grown up with both cats and dogs, it was obvious to me since being a toddler that cats are just self-absorbed, manipulative pieces of shit. Dog's on the other hand are astoundingly loyal.
In fact, I'd argue that part of the attachment between cat ladys and their cats stems from similarities in personality. These types of women are damaged goods, and have an inability to love.
The similarities are endless:
Manipulative. Check.
No loyalty. Check
Will throw you under the bus in the minute. Check.
Will eat you (cats in death or women in divorce.) Check.
Will run away if given too much attention. Check.
Lounge around, and get fat. Check.
Lazy. Check.
Only nice when they want something. Check.
The list goes on and on...
