... I'm curious what made you choose cats over dogs? I prefer cats because I don't have to bathe them every so often. I also like how I don't have to walk them (dogs love to get their paws all dirty and roll around in gunk). Cats are usually smaller, and therefore eat less and have smaller poops. I just think generally that cats are more attractive graceful creatures that naturally smell good. But let's hear your thoughts on cats vs dogs. Dogs are stupid, and so are cats, so why bother? Because cats are stupid in a much more "intelligent" way than dogs. This has to do with the cat's built-in independence. Cats are emotional and caring creatures, and they don't try to be that to please me, as a dog will, but because they mean it. Hans |

Humans beat canines or felines in the stupidity department any day though.
Humans are suppost to be smarter, wiser etc etc. (Emphasis on "suppost to be") s Schrøder wrote: Dogs are stupid, and so are cats, so why bother? |

"Ablang" wrote in message ... I'm curious what made you choose cats over dogs? First off..not everyone chooses one or the other. I used to have both and I know lots of people who still do. I don't "prefer" one over the other as they both have advantages and disadvantages but some of the advantages of cats are they are less demanding, can be left over night alone, tend to be smaller on the whole (my last dog was 85lbs) and are less expensive when it comes to feeding and vet bills. I also find cleaning up after them much easier and they don't require as much space. AG |

I read once (perhaps in here) that you feed a dog, love it, care for it, and it looks at you and thinks you must be god. You feed a cat, love it, care for it and it looks at you and thinks I must be god g. Cats are more independent by nature but that doesn't mean they are "smarter". Studies have proven that dogs have a greater capacity for learning. Of course we have no idea if that's because they are smarter or because the cats in the study didn't want to participate. :-) AG |
