I'm a big
cat person
. I tend to believe that
cats
make better pets than
dogs
. Wanna know why?
...I'm going to
tell
you anyway...
Cats respect your
personal space
. They do not jump on you when they're obviously
not welcome
.
Cats come with
built-in
potty-training
. You don't have to teach them to
respect
the carpet.. they just do.
Cats don't yowl at the
moon
, the
doorbell
, the sound of other cats, or the
garage door opener
.
Cats tend to keep their
stank-ass
breath out of your
face
.
Cats don't get all worked up if you leave them
alone
for a few days.
Cats don't take
shit
from people. They have
strong personalities
.
Cats are small enough to
share
the
bed
with, even if you've got somebody else there with you.

Problems with this list:
My cat jumps on me, my keyboard, the book I'm reading, or whatever I'm looking at at the time because
he has to always be the center of attention
.
My cat poops outside and then catches
mice
/
birds
/
squirrels
and takes them inside,
dead or alive
.
Cats
sing and dance on the fence every night even if the
neighbors
throw shoes at them.
I like
dog breath
.
Cats don't act glad to see you.
Scenario: You've got
too much shit
. How are you going to get rid of it?
My cat lies in the middle of my bed, on all the covers so I can't use them and I have to sleep on the very edge.

Bob (I refuse to use
the C Word
): I'm too nice to move the cat from the bed, even if he doesn't mind.

I've lived with several
cats
and a few
dog
s over the years. Don't get me wrong, I love cats. One of my favorite pets,
Fidget
, was a cat. But here's how I view the list:
1. I've had cats fall
asleep
on my head, sit down in
magazine
s I'm reading, hop on the
kitchen counter
for a
sniff
at dinner, etc etc. If personal space includes
automobiles
, I've had cats (mine and otherwise) leave
footprints
all over them, and one that even crawled into the
engine
and got it's
fur
beaten off by the fan when someone started the car.
2. ...unless they are
upset
with you for any of a
multitude
of reasons. Then the catbox becomes
optional
, and they will poo in a spot where you are as unlikely to see it as you are likely to step in it. Plus I don't think
vomiting
falls under potty training, since they never vomit into the the catbox. And that's worse to clean up then poo.
3. I had a cat who would
yowl
in my window from outside at night because he'd climb onto the roof and couldn't get back down. Getting tired of this, we'd leave him in for the night, and wanting to go outside, he'd yowl at the windows indoors. Another cat I've been around meows for
no reason
. Ceaselessly at times; He meows if you don't meow back. You meow, so he meows back to you.
MEOW!!!!
Yes, my dog is loud but I usually know why. ie "The mail is here", "noise outside", "someone just kicked the front door in".
4. ... but they do tend to keep their
stank-ass
poo in the house. And if you live in a small house, the poobox is in your bedroom. And I don't care what kind of odor-masking self-clumpy auto-whatever litter you've got, it still smells like
shit
. A trashcan with catpoo in it (outside, hot, in the sun) becomes a raunchy stinkbomb that attracts flies, and woe be unto him who takes out the trash.
5. See #2.
6. Try to take food away from a
hungry
dog and we'll talk
personality
. More so my dog knows his name, can follow a few spoken
instructions
, and keep track of (most of) his possessions. I've never seen a cat be remotely interested in anything anyone says. And I don't buy that "He understands you, he's just above obeying" crap.
7. Not all dogs are 190
pound
Saint Bernards
. If you want a dog that can fit in the bed with you and whomever, buy a 10 pound dog. They do exist.
So are cats better then dogs? That's like asking if
PC's
are better then
Macs
. Get what suits you.
