*** Also, her cats FUCKING HURT.
* In ''[[Harvester]]'', there's the Crazy '''Wasp''' Lady complete with long creepy rant about how the wasps' ability to sting again and again is reminiscent of multiple orgasm...
* In ''[[Dwarf Fortress]]'' it's [[The Hypnotoad|Dwarvesthe cats are the ones adopting the dwarves]]. As a result, Dwarves [[media:catsbeard_9105.jpg|have a tendency]] to become this if the cat population is left [[media:catsbeard_9105unchecked.jpg|unchecked]], though [[The Hypnotoad|the cats' areuseful theside onesis adoptingbeing the only common animal who actively hunts vermin annoying your dwarves]] and trying to eat your food. BecauseBut allcats [[Explosive Breeder|procreate like rabbits]] (and the catsmodel is loose enough that a pair doesn't even have to meet, just be ''able to'' meet), which eventually will slow the game to a crawl,. toTo counter it, [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|you can]] [[Eat the Dog|have the stray cats butchered for food, leather, and bones]]. Which is when adoption becomes a problem, since dwarves get really upset when their pets die.
* ''[[Knights of the Old Republic|KOTOR 2]]'', in the restored content there is a deranged padawin living in the ruins of an old temple who raises and trains Laigrek (large cockroaches) to kill any trespassers or treasure-hunters on sight. Noble characters can dissuade her while Villains can kill or corrupt her.
* ''[[Farmville]]'' has a series of ribbons called ''Cat Lady'' which are awarded by brushing your cats enough times.
Line 161:
* ''[[Homestuck]]'' has Roxy Lalonde, who achieves the unique feat of being this trope while only 15 years old and a protagonist.

** Photoplasty [http://www.cracked.com/photoplasty_581_17-famous-images-as-seen-from-different-angle_p2/?view=article Famous Images, As Seen From a Different Angle] shows a dozen cats on the side of the room that we don't see in James McNeill Whistler's famous portrait of his mother.
* ''[[Not Always Right]]'' has these pop up now and them. Like [http://notalwaysright.com/hiss-terical this]. And a [http://notalwaysright.com/has-no-reservations-with-her-babies crazy dog lady].
