Many women fear that if they don't meet "the one," they will grow up and become a "crazy cat lady" some day. Before I started a family, I had a cat who was my baby. I loved her like she was my child, and it broke my heart when I had to find her a new home. But you don't have to be old and alone to be a crazy cat lady. Here are some signs you might already be a feline fanatic.

You Own a Cat (or Two. or Three)
You can't be a crazy cat lady without having a cat. We usually think of a crazy cat lady as having many cats, but you can be just as crazy over one special kitty. Whether you have one or a dozen, owning a cat makes you one step closer to being a cat-aholic.

Your Cat Has a Facebook Page
Only a crazy cat lady would create social media pages for her feline friends. If you think of your cat more like a human than an animal, you might think they need a Facebook page. If so, you might be a little crazy.

Your Cat Sleeps with You
It's normal for cat owners to snuggle with their cats. But some would argue that letting your cat sleep with you in your bed is a little strange. Regardless, if your sheets are a little fluffier from your feline companion, you could be well on your way to living the life of a crazy cat lady.
