Are you more of a cat person or a dog person? :D

**** cats.
nope.

I hate animals but cats have never tried to kill me so I'll give them a bonus for that.

I vote cats because I've never once stepped in cat ****.
2010-12-08, 10:08 AM #4
I can't remember the last time I stepped in dog ****, but cats keep ****ting in my garden. :P
nope.

I tend to prefer dogs slightly more to cats. Not to say I don't like cats, just that I'd rather own a dog out of the two. More so at the moment because my friend's cat scratched and subsequently tried to eat my hand over the weekend, the little *******.

I like dogs more, but cats are so low maintenance.

Here's just a few of the thoughts that come to me:

Cats are clean and do not smell unless grossly neglected or in large numbers
Dogs are not very clean and smell unless constantly bathed

Cats are solitary animals, generally able to take care and not require much attention
Dogs are social animals, generally requiring lots of attention both physically and psychologically

Cats are generally small, I can move them easily.
Dogs are generally large, even the smaller ones are not as easy to move.

Cats are generally easy to ignore if they happen to meow a lot
Dogs are difficult to ignore as their barking can be heard easily by neighbors

Cats poop and pee in a box which is easy to clean up
Dogs poop and pee outside, which is annoying at best to clean up

-----------------------

Just to be clear, I've been around vicious, uncool cats before (usually Siamese) and around cool dogs (usually big old Retrievers who have no interest in barking and jumping on you). I currently live in a house with roommates who own both a cat (orange short-hair mutt) and dog (doberman). Dogs I'm sure are awesome for those who live in the country, in Viking mead halls, and are outdoorsy and energetic. I am an indoorsy, lazy bum. I have no desire for loyalty, fetching, or security in a pet and every want for an animal with low maintenance and act as a soft purring bucket.

I like both but am slightly inclined towards dogs. I own a cat though, because as a student I can't be arsed to bathe the dog, take the dog on walks, and take the dog out to do its business. Cats are so low maintenance it's insane... check this **** out:

I do have to add though, that cats can be ****ing pricks sometimes, unlike dogs who are pretty much constantly nice (at least from my experience). It's hard to tell them not to do ****, they have some superpower that lets them access every area of your home, and they ****ing make you bleed with their claws on occasion. No dog has ever made me bleed... though if it ever came to that, I guess the results would be more catastrophic.

Cats are definitely not always clean.

I never said always, but I have a poor sense of smell and yet I almost ALWAYS smell dogs (and it's not a pleasant smell) when around one, whereas I almost NEVER smell anything from a cat, even when it's in my face. This may be because most all cats I know are indoor cats as well.

More of a dog person, but cats can be awesome too!

I don't understand why people just let their cats roam around outside freely as they please. My old honda civic was low to the ground and I had an OEM spoiler on the front.. well go figure one day a cat jumps out in front of my car and I plowed him... little dead ****er broke the spoiler.. If I found the owners I would have made them pay for that **** because it's ridiculous.

Cats pee everywhere.

You think they only pee in the litter box? WRONG. You think dogs pee everywhere? CATS ARE WORSE.

Also, dogs are man's best friend. We only kept cats around to kill rats. We've invented better ways of killing mice, we haven't invented better friends.

I like both, to be honest, and it's a pretty tough call.

I'd ****ing kill for a bird that was awesome, though. Like a myna or a cockatiel.

I cosndier my dog one of my closest and best friends. His name's Moses which fits him perfectly. He has ADD and OCD which makes him all the more awesome. Words cannot express the love I feel for him. He only has a year or two left :(

I agree with this. Cat's are usually soft and enjoyable to pet. I don't like petting a dog unless it's had a bath recently.

I don't consider you're point about cats to be a good thing and I don't consider your point about dogs to be a bad thing. Also if a dog is an attention whore that doesn't know when to leave people alone it hasn't been brought up right.

Dogs are generally large, even the smaller ones are not as easy to move.


This is part of the reason why I prefer small dogs. Also, see next:

No way. Dogs at least have a line of communication with humans. They can easily be trained to understand words and do what we want on command. So if my dog barks I tell it to shut up and it does. If it's bothering me I tell it to go away and it does.

Cats on the other hand will not just jump up on my lap when I'm sitting on the couch, but they will jump up on the back of the couch and start sticking their face in my ear or something. I can't move them because their sharp little claws crab the cushion and they don't let go. If I try to push them off they come right back. I've never, EVER seen a cat that will listen to a human's commands to go away, come, stay down, etc etc.

Cats poop and pee in a box that is INSIDE THE HOUSE. AT LEAST one whole room is guaranteed to stink terribly and make me never want to enter. My dog holds it's poop and pee until I let it outside at which time it goes to the designated grass area where it's trained to poop and the house remains fresh.

I generally prefer cats over dogs. My family's cat is in and out. There's no litter box because he only goes outside, and he lets you know when he wants out. Much better than a dog.

Dogs are ****en better than cats for sure but only if you have a yard. Small dogs are pathetic. Dogs liek Zell's Zoey are sexy and are "the ****" according to Ragna, a truly credible source. Big dogs rock ass so hard, they run fast and bound around the town and they can run with you and fetch ****. If you don't have a yard big enough for a dog, **** it. Tiny dogs are like pathetic. Extra pathetic if they've got short stumpy legs that can't carry 'em more than 50 feet without shattering from overuse.

Cats are ****en great if you've got no room for dogs, or in addition to dogs. Some cats are ****ing cool, their personalities are really varied so no wonder this is the case but despite it some people in here are talking about all cats being like this one cat they really hated or really liked, which is clearly dumb, so stop being dumb and think like a rational human being about this. Not all cats stick their face in your face, some are cold and solitary and serene and whatever while some are ****ing manic. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY.

Cats and Dogs are both fun to have around and they can be equally sweet, but I think dogs are generally sweeter, and clearly smarter and ****, because they rock.

Dogs are so in tune with humans. THEY did a study where two cups were placed on the floor, one with a treat under it, and when chimpanzees and dogs were given an indication (finger point) as to which cup contained the treat, chimps don't know what the **** to do. Dogs, however, go to the cup which is being pointed at. Because **** chimps. I'll take 75% DNA similarity over 95% thanks *****es.

Yeah, Zell's Zoey is my favorite dog. Gotta get one like that someday. What breed was it???
2010-12-09, 12:45 PM #31
I like dogs but I prefer cats. Mostly because they're low-maintenance (like me). Dogs are much too needy.
