My Cat From Hell's Jackson Galaxy: People Read Cats Through Dog-Colored Glasses
TV Guide ^ | 6/20/13 | by Hanh Nguyen

Cat owners need to become more literate ... about reading cats.

Cat behaviorist Jackson Galaxy wraps up his fourth season of Animal Planet's My Cat From Hell on Saturday (8/7c) and boils down why people misunderstand their feline friends. "We really try to read them through dog-colored glasses and are trying to look for these very specific types of responses that are very much human-based," Galaxy tells TVGuide.com. "And if we don't see them, we assume that they don't care.

A boy, a cat, and a .22 - it is a beautiful thing.

Now that I have your attention, CatPersons - please tell your fellow cat lovers that dumping “winter season pet cats”, AKA “Snowbird Stray” in the Everglades should be a flogging offense.

When a cat is dumped in the woods, it usually is soon torn apart and eaten by a larger predator. Even a possum can eat a cat, particularly after poor ‘Fluffums’ has been weakened by a lack of food.

Here in the ‘Glades, even getting a drink of water from a canal, ditch, or pond exposes poor ‘Fluffums’ to “Jaws”, otherwise known as an alligator.

One reason, among many, that I dislike Snowbird CatPersons is they usually are too cheap to euthanize their temporary pets at the vet, or they are too cowardly to do it themselves. Once they dump ‘Fluffums’, they force others to do it when their Lil’ Fluffums, the “Snowbird Stray” takes up residence and kills anything it can manage to catch.

Listen up, CatPersons! Ammo prices are sky high. Stop socializing your pet ownership costs and act like a humane human.

/Rant off

Man, the cats people dump down here in the Glades is a SHAME!!!!! If not the gators, than even the birds. Or the occasional python.

Makes me sick folks dump cats here.

Jackson Galaxy, the man who broke the stereotype of what a cat guy can look like, can be like, act like...He is a musician that has always been a little different. Jackson Galaxy is a stage name that got changed because the original was embarrassing and difficult to pronounce. Next question. :)

Honey Boo Boo isn’t a douche, just a trailer-park brat.

I did wonder initially if his surname was the same as Johnny Galecki (Leonard in Big Bang Theory and David in Roseanne.) But Answers.com says his real name is Demetreos "Jack" Galankas, a very Greek name. Maybe he should have held onto it, like Melina Kanakaredes and Zach Galifianakis.

His personal style is really a shame, because he has a handsome face. Needs a shave and his teeth whitened, and cover up those snaky tats. Can't do much about the conehead, though.

Really like the show. I don’t know much about this Jackson except what he does on the show and its pretty incredible to me. I don’t really care about his personal life and don’t care to know. I mean he isn’t out there doing the things we despise like participating in a sodomy pride parade or advocating for the mass slaughter of the unborn now is he?

For me, it’s a diversion from TV ‘s sorry spectacle of debauchery, deceit and all manner of perversions. Don’t know why I should even have one these days but a show like his show isn’t one of them.

I would respect a name of Demetreous Glankas more than some DB name of “Jackson Galaxy.”

I get people who had to change their name in the turn of the century for profiling sake, but this is just stupid.
