THEY may look like lovable pets but Britain’s estimated 9m domestic cats are being blamed by scientists for infecting up to half the population with a parasite that can alter people’s personalities.
Infected men, suggests one new study, tend to become more aggressive, scruffy, antisocial and are less attractive. Women, on the other hand, appear to exhibit the “sex kitten” effect, becoming less trustworthy, more desirable, fun- loving and possibly more promiscuous.

Hmm, as a woman, this infection seems like a pretty good deal! ;)
"(women) consistently rated as more attractive (...) more easy-going, more warm-hearted, had more friends and cared more about how they looked,” (...) “However, they were also less trustworthy and had more relationships with men.”"
I know I'm trustworthy and monogamous, so being prettier, having more friends and being more fun-loving all sound great to me!
Here, kitty-kitty-kitty! ;)
Women definitely get the better end of this bargin.
