Cats or Dogs?

Wibbs

Cats? Not the sharpest axes in the toolshed in the main, plus people mistake disloyalty with independence in them. Mostly useless as dogs are better ratters etc. They're feckless freeloaders for the most part, who will only give up affection when required. Again that's not independence it's a personality issue. The usual rant of died in the wool catists is that they're cleaner than dogs. Right so, I'll show up to your gaff and "clean" myself by spitting on my hand and wiping the results on my body. They carry more diseases than dogs. More people are allergic to them.

Dogs? Can be a bit daft, but have more variable personalities, not dependent on the owner to ascribe such to them where little evidence exists, as is usually the case with cats. They're loyal, they have the pack/family thing going on. They're far more useful and practical(except for those with part time pet syndrome going on). They're stronger, more consistent and have a true nobility that cats can't approach. Us and dogs have walked together for the guts of 100,000 years. We improved each other along the way. We have much smaller noses and sense of smell than our ancestors. Ever wonder why? It could well be that we didn't need them anymore as we had the dogs to make up the diff.

The ancestor of the domestic cat? A wild cat, small belligerent and solitary for the most part. The ancestor of the dog? The wolf. Game over.

Never trusted cat people. IME I've been right not to.

People don't choose cats, cats choose people.:D

And as for never trusting cat people.:(

Cats: 10.

Rats: 0

I'd rather own a cat than have rats making their home in the garden.:pac:

I had a cat called Heathcliff. He was very stripy. I loved him.:)

He used to watch rats and birds and never chase them. He wasn't the brightest crayon in the box, but what a cat!

I actually like both, but I have to give the edge to cats!
I have a cat named Samhain and she's a doll. She always greets me when I come in, and wants to be near me. Whenever I call her, she comes over, no matter what she's doing. And her favorite thing is to sit in my lap and purr. She's adorable and full of personality!
I like dogs too, but they're more difficult to take care of. And I don't like small dogs, I like big dogs. My ideal dog is a Leonberger. But I live in a small apartment, and I don't feel it's right to have a big dog in such a small space. So it's me and Samhain for now!

I'm not an animal person at all so don't particularly like either. Everyone always looks at me in disgust at this point!
However, I had a boyfriend once upon a time who had a dog I was actually quite fond of. It ate my vomit!!!!!! :eek: I miss that dog sometimes!

Cats are all the same, just slightly different colours. Dogs are far better. all different shapes and sizes, and different personalities. Dogs FTW. Dogs have character. If Dunphy was talking about this he's say "The cat, is a nothing animal"

ok people which do ye prefer...

exhibit a) a dog

will love you forever but tends to piss and sh!te everywhere untill trained otherwise and not the most inteligent creatures on the planet it has to be said

or exhibit b) a cat

will put up with you while you feed it but if the food is better next door, its going there instead. Can have funny expresions and does extremely stupid things when is a kitten

So, if you ever happen to go blind, I'll assume you'll have a cat to guide you, because dogs aren't intelligent enough? Dogs are great, they can be trained to do all sorts of stuff. My mate is a farmer and he has a sheepdog (called max) and he's a legend. Rounds up sheep and even cows. What can a cat do? Fúck all

My cat helps blind people! :mad:

I like both but prefer bigger dogs. As for cats, they do have personalities and some are very affectionate indeed. Some are quiet and some are vocal and some are magical!

The Cat's Diary

Day 983 of my captivity

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am. Bastards!

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now ...

I have both a cat & two dogs - all three are hilarious in their own little ways.

I love the independent nature of a cat, as I usually hate clingy, needy people.. although I make allowance's for that in my dogs, because I love dawgs!.

Dogs, definitely.

Aside from being allergic to cats, I consider them to be the femme fatale of the animal world ; evil buggers!
They make you work for their affection, they hurt you, they show no sense of loyalty.

Dogs, on the other hand, will love you unconditionally if you're nice to them. They'll protect you, they'll show you affection and they'll be a great companion.

It's so sad when they die though
You become so attached to them.
My dog, Lulu, died seven years ago and I still hate talking about it. Can't do it without crying

has to be a dog. more faithful.

Dogs, they're much more affectionate and not so snooty. They accept that they're pets and their life is going to involve being petted all the time and only being played with when the kids or owners want to play.

I do like cats, as well, but they seem to think they're equal to humans.

I personally like cats more. For a start, cats are not as dependant on people as dogs. While it is true that cats generally try to butter you up when they are hungry, they can also be good company.

Dogs by far.

We have 3 dogs one big one(Boxer), one medium(Beegle) and one small(Jack-Russell)-I love them all.
We have 3 cats, a black one, a black and white one and a gold and brown one, all the same size and shape, two have bitten me(hard, not a little nip) and the other one scratches me continuously, not fond of them, except one(the one that scratches me) I actually like him:o.

Dogs are so affectionate and loyal, cats are snooty and independant.

They're both crap!

Red panda is the ideal pet. I like their tails.
