I'm fed up with Animal Planet and USA Network. (Bit of a rant)

Why?

Every year they play the dog shows on their networks, yet how often has anyone seen a cat show on either network?
I never have.

Animal Planet never wrote me back as to why they don't.

And there are far more cat fanciers than dog fanciers.

Don't get me wrong, I love dogs, always have.
I like cats more, and have two myself.

1. its because cats lack the awwww factor dogs have

As cute as a cat is, they're never awwwww cute.

2. You never saw Lucky, my b/w female.

She still has the "kitten" face, and even still mews like a kitten, and is about 5 years old.

3. Your pic illustrates the problem! What do cats do besides sleep?

You can't put a cat on a leash and run it around a ring.

I'd love to see them too but I'm pretty sure they would be boring.

9. Awwwww

Ok that kitty gets an Awwwww

5. Cats are far cuter to me, but they probably aren't as interesting.

...as dogs are in shows, because most dogs can be trained to do more things. Cats are too independent.
I love dogs too, but a kitten or lovable cat gets my attention far quicker than a dog does. I think cats have much more of a cute factor.

4. I can't imagine someone running a cat around on a leash!

6. Wasn't Animal Planet supposed to run a cat video show?

My cat Larry seriously loves that shit.

My boy cat, Basil, LOVES that show.
