You’re way overreading what I wrote and pretty much replacing what I meant with something else from your own mind.
I just meant it as a well known example of hoarding.
I actually live in the same building as a lady who is crazy (i.e. has deep psychological problems, if I’m not mistaken schizoprenia), has LOTS of cats and even regularly feeds the local strays - quite literally a crazy lady that loves cats.
No need to go into your cultural assumptions and presumptions about some local stereotype most of which doesn’t even apply in my own culture.
