I think all cat and kitten threads should state so in the title.
It would save a lot of clicks and time.
Those who are interested in reading about cats and kittens could go straight to the threads saving all the reading of the political crap on the DU and those who are not so interested in cats and kittens could just avoid them ..... What do you think? Do we need a cat and kitten forum?

Somehow, this thread makes me want to start a lot of kitty threads without warnings in the title just to be irritating. Cause, seriously? If this bugs ya? Ya got issues.

16. All posts that are not about cats or kittens should clearly state so in the subject
Posters who do not clearly indicate in the subject line that the post is deficient in cats/kittens should be nuked. Posters who are flippant or dismissive of cats/kittens should be nuked. Posters who do not (at least occasionally) post cat/kitten threads should be nuked. Also, we should have a cat/kitten forum to house overflow cat/kitten posts. Two such forums would be better...

27. I was not a cat person until a feral cat adopted me and delivered 5 kittens to my doorstep
I am now a thorough convert and have written 4 threads on Nikita's kids for cat-savvy people. Therefore, I have to side with placing the threads where the author thinks it is most appropriate. I personally did label my threads for cat-savvy DU'ers, but that was my personal preference and I do not think it should be a requirement.
