Talk:cat person

Does the person really have to keep cats as pets? Or is it enough for them to like cats or interact with them? Danuthaiduc (talk) 13:42, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

Basically a person who likes cats. Surely any noun can be used like this, although some like cat person and dog person are more common, they are not any more idiomatic than less common forms (motorbike person is attested for example). Mglovesfun (talk) 11:56, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. Person has the relevant sense: “(in a compound noun or noun phrase) Someone who likes or has an affinity for (a specified thing).” — Ungoliant (Falai) 15:37, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. That sense covers it, and the collocations are endless: I'm not a jazz person, not an Italian food person, etc. Equinox ◑ 16:04, 16 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete both. Oddly, we also have catperson, but it is for an unrelated sense of the term. bd2412 T 16:00, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
