Is it normal to love my cat so much?

I am damn obsessed with my Cheshire cat, he's the best thing in my life, and I love him to death. I have developed an attention deficit disorder, every time my cat comes around I pause what I'm doing to pet on him and show him some love. I spoil the crap out of him and I just wish I could stay home all day and cuddle on him. Id rather just have him and no children. I feel like a twenty one year old crazy cat lady

1. Not normal. If you just got him that's different, if you've had him for some time, then that's not normal
2. Completely normal.......for you
3. I feel the same way about my Rubin :)
4. Haha, to animal lovers, completely normal, to others that have no obsession to animals, they may think you have a problem. I am on the animal lover side, when i was in my low and felt like i had no one else and nothing could get any worse, my cats were my loves. I now 26, still have 2 cats, live-in boyfriend and step child. And still to this day, my cats get almost my full attention over anything else. Again, some may say it's pathetic and unhealthy, but just think of it this way, will your cat leave you or hurt you? If it came down to it, and i had to choose a boyfriend over my cats, I'd be the 26 year old crazy cat lady :)
5. Who cares? You're happy, the cat's happy. It's all good!
6. Wow. A woman who speaks my language. I recently asked my boyfriend if it would be alright if we just had 20 cats and no kids.... sadly, he said no. But in all honesty, I don't think that's weird. I think its beautiful to be able to love another creature! I think it's great for both of you to have such a bond - I am willing to bet (with no scientific evidence of course) that you're both going to live long healthy lives together. Just be careful that you don't miss out on the important stuff in life, and that you don't go overboard spending money on that little boy. You're both lucky to have one another - I would find it weird if you didn't feel that way!
7. Well i admit im addicted to my kitty too / i allways wish i could put her in my pocket and take her every where i go/ every year on her birthday i spend at least $40 dollars on her buying toys / and i admit / before she got hurt and almost lost her life from being outside/ i spent $60 dollars on her a fancy wagon to ride in when i went for walks / she is afraid to go out now / so i had to buy a tiny wagon to pull her around in in the house / lol but its true. im happy to hear you are such a cat lover too !!
