I prefer cats. I grew up around them, so they are just a big part of my life now. I have several cats now, and they are the sweetest animals you could have. They're never aggressive, and they love attention. They also warm up to people very easily and once they do they love cuddles. I feel like cats are judged too harshly. Just because they can't detect bombs doesn't mean they aren't good pets. Cats keep people company. They are cute and they have great personalities. Each cat is different and it all depends on how you raise them.
 
Yeah those are the dogs that people trained horribly as a puppy, or had no loving family .-.

also I found this in a study: There are more dog people than cat people. About six percent more US households own dogs than own cats. In survey after survey, people who say they love dogs outnumber cat-lovers by as much as five to one.

Your constant comparisons of why dogs are better than cats is like saying parrots are better pets than ferrets because they talk.

They're completely different animals. Some people prefer reptiles, some people prefer birds, some people prefer dogs over cats. Yes, dogs can be trained more easily and are more often seen in movies, but... Pretty sure it's cat videos that are all over the internet, and pretty sure "crazy cat lady" is more common than crazy dog lady.

We get it. Dogs are awesome. I don't think anyone here has denied that. But cats are completely different animals. They bat toys around instead of fetching them, purr instead of lick, and rub instead of laying at your feet. Don't compare the two. It's not a competition. It's just about what people prefer.

(And regarding my earlier comparison of "dogs are better than cats because they can do A, B, and C" to parrots being better than ferrets because they can talk? Ferrets are awesome too. Totally not hatin' on the mustelidae family.)
 
I'm sorry you live in a world where The Aristocats isn't a movie

I mean actual real-life looking movies, not cartoons .-.

Read Up. This is a famous classic.
The best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has, he may lose. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it the most. A man?s reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads. The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog. A man?s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master?s side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounters with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens. If fortune drives the master forth an outcast in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him to guard against danger, to fight against his enemies, and when the last scene of all comes, and death takes the master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by his graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even to death. - Senator Graham Vest
 
Yeah, ignore the person who made a logical argument to do after the person who posted a link of a scene from a movie about cats when you specifically said no one ever makes movies about cats.

If anything just killed your argument, that did. xD
 
1. I quoted the person who posted it
2. I quoted them, because when I said dog movies, I mean actor real life movies, not cartoons
 
dogs.. cause i'm mostly around those i guess. i don't mind either animals really but i'm not too much around cats or know em too well so yeah dogs.
 
@ShayminSkies, Dogs are Completely from Cats and Cats are completely different Dogs, you haven't compared Dogs to other pets e.g Hamster's, saying that there awful, unloyal and can't do jobs for Humans yet you do it for Cats, your statements are unfair, don't forgot that cats are much weaker than most dogs and can't do most things dogs can do, you just don't like Cats we get the point.
Also dogs are not all as sweet as you make them out to be. : /
 
1. I have 2 dogs with me rn.
2. I didn't compare them to other pets becasue this poll isn't hamsters, snakes, birds, and the list goes on isn't it?

I don't get the conversation about films? Google "cat movies" there's definitely a good few, most that come up are cartoon ones, but not all are. Also, cats have much more "viral videos" and things; grumpy cat, long cat, the thousands of cat videos on youtube?

Anyway, I don't see how about animals ability to be "movie worthy" or to entertain humans makes that animal better than another one? Humans aren't the top of everything, and animal shouldn't have to serve us to be liked?

Neither is better than the other, actually, no animal is better than another (humans included) the questions just asking what we personally prefer? It doesn't need to be argued about? you prefer dogs? you hate cats? cool, it doesn't matter, it's not serious, honestly lmao

I honestly prefer Cats, their much cuter than dogs and they don't smell as bad to me, their very playful with me and they get all happy and purr when I watch TV on the couch with them.
I like both, but cats are WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY better! No question about. cx Lmao.

Could you please leave cats alone?
Its really annoying, just because there not your little workers doesn't mean there awful.

The first statement was Sarcastic I really wanted to see Shaymins reaction, since you were bugging me. c:
Even though the cute and smell bad was a mix of my opinion & expirence with these animals. CX
Also I wrote "way" several times and in caps to trigger you. You annoy me, I annoy you, now leave them alone please.

I said they aren't as sweet as you make them out to be, meaning they're behaviour.
Also that dog is so cute. c:

Too late you already "triggered" me and so you did that to annoy me on purpose, but I guess I know why most people voted cat, its because everyone is on the internet, but good to know that there are more people who vote dogs outside this forum

Oh yes, because an animal has to be "loyal" to be loved by humans? No. And there's no argument needed here, you obviously prefer dogs, but others prefer cats, it's cool, it's fine. lmao

side note, that is one adorable dog!! they look so fluffy and cute

She's a cocker spaniel, we are her 4th owner, but hopefully her last, the other people couldn't keep her because of issues like a sick family member, and an apartment
