Cats Are the New Dogs in Hollywood

Are cats the new dog? Both Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie were recently seen buying cats in Hollywood within days of each other, which is sure to set a new kitty cat trend.

And speaking of copycats, Paris is currently out and about promoting her album that drops on August 22. Nicole has now announced to Scotland's Daily Record newspaper that she has 6 songs done on her new album and she'll be ready to rock when she has about 10 songs finished.

Meow! More claws yet to come out in the ever-present Nicole/Paris cat fight.

I am glad Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie have bought cats. Cats are cute and cuddly and furry and fuzzy. I wish Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton would be friends again. I enjoy watching The Simple Life over and over again. I look forward to getting Paris Hilton's new album.

It seems like everything Paris does Nicole turns around and does. Instead of Nicole trying to find her own identity she seems like she's dead set on topping Paris at everything. Starting to get bored.

I wish both of these girls would fade into obscurity sooner then later. They have no substance and are void of personality.

I am so sick of Paris! She is so fake and what's up with her (crying) interview saying she is so hurt at what the public says about her. Doesnt she say hurtful things to other people (Lindsay Lohan). She is so immature and annoying. Carmas a bitch! hahaha I can't stand her. I think that Nichole Richi is great and Paris suckssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!! She is a SLUT too. She walks like a pinguin and has a weird body shape! YUCK! The only reason guys date her is because she is a pig and gives it up easy! Cry Paris cry! My family has more money than her and I'm not out emarresing my family and whoreing around.
P.S. You music sucks! hahaha

Unfortunately, all these bimbos do is set bad examples for those that follow. I doubt that either one is responsible enough to be guardian to any animal, at least we KNOW that Hilton isn't. First of all, BUYING these little token glam animals is only promoting the puppy/kitten mill business. If you feel compelled to tote around an innocent animal, think again. But if you MUST, at least consider adopting a gorgeous animal from a shelter or rescue group. These animals are literally DYING for a loving home. Set your own trends for a change.

"Debbie" just wants to be able to ask people "Would you like to pet my p***y???".
Anybody remember how they used to refer to other girls as "Debbie"...ones they thought undeserving of being in the same club as them??? Their own little private joke..."Debbies" were the losers, the wanna-be's.
So they had this whole little insnide thing going on, to make fun of others, who apparently didn't have feelings that could be hurt.
Paris/Debbie, look in the f&*&ng mirror!!! You're the loser wanna-be!!!

I like Paris. I can only say what I see but she doesn't seem to be as rude and crude as Nicole. They are both Cute.... Nicole is cute in a charpie dog way yanno so ugly she is cute, and Paris is just HOT.

These cats are not obviously from any rescue shelter you are right; never seen any that nice there when i got mine finally from a shelter. The only one time I did get one almost that nice as theirs (Paris' and Nicole's) from the Shelter, was a reddish colored longhaired cat and it gave me "bugs", in my hair everywhere I had hair!!!! Not recommended to get one from a shelter where all health problems from all over creation are put into one area unless you are ready to deal with that.

The next cat I got came from a breeder, and it was gorgeous and had no health problems whatsoever, although one day a year or two later it did catch a cold but that was from the vet's office when it when there for a checkup and shots.

WHAT IS THE RUSH:  2030 days ago

TO PARIS AND NICOLE,
YOU DO NOT CARRY A CAT AROUND LIKE A SMALL DOG, IN THIS HEAT YOU WOULD KILL THEM, PLUS A DOG. PLEASE DO NOT DO THAT. WHEN THEY ARE SMALL KITTENS ESPECIALLY, IT IS BEST TO HANDLE THEM AS LESS AS POSSBILE AT FIRST. THIS IS NOT A TREND. I'M SO TIRED OF FAMOUS PEOPLE TAKING ANIMALS AND CARRYING THEM AROUND LIKE JEWELRY. PLEASE THE HEAT DO NOT PUT THEM IN A GUCCI TOTE. THESE ARE CATS. IF YOUR GOING TO HAVE ANIMALS HANDLE THEM W/ RESPECT.
