Just be grateful the cat allows you to serve him or her.

(28,394 posts)I can identify most breeds of dogs, but cats do look a lot alike. I started watching "Cats 101" (something like that) on Animal Planet and can now recognize some different breeds. That one in the lower left corner is a Russian Blue. I know that because I used to have one.

(50,566 posts)I've had many amazing loving cat buddy friends over the years. Plus they are so soft and they purr and they're snuggly.

(3,521 posts)I have had several cats over the years and have enjoyed their company. But to my mind nothing can compare to an 80 lb golden retriever jumping in your lap and licking your face because he is so happy just to be with you.

(50,566 posts)and when that happens to me I always think, okay, I know I really am not a dog person because I just don't want this dog jumping and slobbering on me. But, I wish them well. I like all animals, but cats are like crack to me. And mine greet me at the door and chirp at me when I come home.
