A cat without claws is like Bitcoin without SHA256.
Just don't let it go near your furniture, problem solved.

Apartment no but if you have a house with backyard then yes.
Cats are amazing hunters they will clear your house of any potential rats or large critters such as large spiders.

also not a good combo if you have other small animals like hamsters, birds or fish
or one big animal and that's a dog

Umm, based on all post so far, cats are useful only if..........
You have rodents (and dislike pesticides and exterminators)
You lack a significant other (and or emotionally needy)
You have children (and they get anything)
Well, whatever makes you happy and fulfilled as a person......to each their own.

I own a dog and I am thinking that it is really annoying to bring it out 3 times a day half an hour each. She is a beautiful puppy half border collie and she is very nice in behaviour but sometimes I would Bury her in the ground.
I don't like cats. It has very stinky shit. And shit anywhere.
People who don't like cats have never had a good one.
Start with a kitten and treat it really nice.....Oops
Don't let it get too spoiled.

I think that pretty much sums it up for me right there. I never had a cat and don't really trust them. I've been around some pretty cool cats and when they purr and hang around me I feel very relaxed but I'm not around cats often.
Other times I'm around cats and they are tense I get very uncomfortable and don't like the vibes they give off not to mention their claws and fangs really freak me out haha. All that being said I've always wanted to have a dog and cat that got along in the same house.
Mostly people think that cats are not so friendly (like dogs). That's not true, when I come home, my cat always waits me and looks like she's happy to see me back home. Also cats are extremely supportive - when I feel sad and start to cry, my cat is always near, purring and rubbing her head on my leg.
If you are alone , and feel lonely it would be helpful like a person is with you
It depends upon your home. If you are surrounded by rodents it is useful to keep cats in your house.
if you have mice or if you keep them in your yard
I had 2 cats, they weren't exacly house cats as they were in the yard and not allowed in the house but you get the point
they were some crazy ninja cats who killed snakes, literally
they ate fucking snakes, they killed them all
now I can walk freely in my yard

There are some good house cats indeed.
jarhed is the guy in my avatar getting Goxxed.
Other than having narcissistic image of themselves plastered all over the net.... 
Are we just a free meal ticket for house cats? I'd imagine lions and tigers would ripped them to shreds for being slackers....
How is it house cats manage to convince everyone they're smart when they're so hard to train.
Aren't house cats taking advantage of persons suffering from emotional instability?

jarhead
A member of the United States Marine Corps. When used by civilians it could be considered derogatory, but it is used often among Marines.
The term originates from the "high and tight" haircut that many Marines have, which makes their head look like a jar. It did NOT originate from their uniform or cover.
"Oorah jarhead, semper fi!"
Are you a jarhead, jarhed?
OP must add polling options to this post..!
* Do you like house cats
* Or you hate'em

Yes they are useful if your house is full of rats.
Any of your family member is allergic or asthmatic patient then avoid cats.

I'm allergic and dislike cats not for that specific reason but because I generally don't like them.
I'm almost angry because I was made to believe cats are smart and also to consider dogs stupid because they would bark at me for no apparent reasons, which I then find very offensive and disrespectful.
It's my fault really.....for taking this long to ask the same questions I'm sure dogs wonder about and was simply trying to get our attention with their constant barking.
I grew up in a pet-free environment and may now think of cats as moochers because of this.
