Well, you know in America we have bunny ears for girls to wear... It's just a slightly different way of combining the animal cuddliness with a hot girl.

Having spent the past decade watching a hell of a lot more anime than is probably good for me, I have to say that I've never gotten the whole cat-girl thing. Most of the time they just look like they're wearing headbands, which is just dumb, and under no circumstances do they EVER act anything like an actual cat (obvious exceptions being Escaflowne TV and Princess Tutu, which featured a ballet instructor who was just a giant talking house-cat standing on its hind legs in a leotard). It always struck me as kind of lame and not very attractive.

Well, anime artists have a huge interest in the idea of a cat girl, also known as nekomimi, because of the huge resonance between female and feline traits.

When people anthropomorphize animals, dogs are masculine, cats are feminine.
I would argue that this is true primarily of people who have never actually spent any time with either species. In both cases, their primary behavioral traits and personality quirks don't really have that much of a human analogue. People who associate feline and female traits like that always end up portraying either women or cats in a way which is completely out of touch with reality. This is speaking as someone who's had multiple cats around the house since I was born.
I think its more the shape, cats are more sleek and... uh.. idunno streamlined i guess? Thats a more common feature of women, where dogs are big and bulky, a more sterotypically masculine body-shape, so women are assossiated with cats, men with dogs... i think nyoro~...

I've seen only half a dozen such avatars in my travels here. Not a plague or significant number.

I would like to go on record that my avatar does in no way reflect my sexual preferences or fantasies. How many people make their avatar choice based in what they find hot?

I haven't seen that many catgirl avatars around, but they're all coming out for this thread. Nice.

I have a certain love for playing catgirl... ears and collar (no tail, they get caught on things too easily) make every outfit cuter.

I could present a photo of myself in kitty ears for consideration. My boyfriend likes it too.

Cat-girls are okay i guess.

And lest we forget...

OT: Its a number of factors really. "I like cats. I like human females. Lets see what happens when i put them together. Eww nasty!" *Adds more human* "Holy hell this is hawt!"

I personally think there should be more squirrel girls [http://blazblue.jp/ct/images/trailer/c_makoto01.jpg].
You, my friend win.
OT: basically what others have said. Cats are cute and anime girls are cute, so catgirls are super cute. No fetish at all.

Ehh... I personally prefer wolf-girls to cat-girls, but to each their own..
I DEMAND (ask) to know what anime and/or manga that is from!
Magipoka..

Also, am I the only one feeling that this thread is turning into a "Reveal your fetish" thread?

This may turn out bad...
