I like dogs better than cats

[MrScorpio]

Because they're the best!

Edit: Reasons

A puppy won't try to scratch the fuck out of you like a kitten will

A Dog would rather hang out with you than play coy games

Your dog is always happy to see you no matter how long you were away

1. Hmmm.

Okay someone is looking for trouble in the cat friendly lounge!
:popcorn:

[quip]

2. It's okay to be insecure.

3. Cats don't drool, or bark all day long.

And my cats are desolate if I am away even for five or six hours.

On the other hand, I have a few favorite Bow Wows I visit when I need the dog thing to happen.

4. Cats don't eat their own poo.

13. That's a great point! My sisters' dogs do that!

:puke:

And kittehs are kind enough to put theirs in a box to make disposal easier! :D :hi:

[bigwillq]

5. Me too!

I am playing with my doggy right now! :hi:

6. Don thy flame retardant suit, sir!

Dogs like to roll in shit. Cats are fastidiously clean.

Dogs will eat cat poop and then try to lick your face. I've never seen a cat eat shit.

It is true that dogs don't scratch furniture, but cats don't chew shoes.

I rest my case.

12. Cats pee in shoes.

Dogs repel intruders. Dogs chase cats up trees (a tremendous source of embarassment for cats). Dogs are loyal- if your cat runs away from home, he/she will replace you without a thought.

7. And they play with you... you don't just entertain them...

that's a big plus for me.

Also they're trainable.

And they don't shit in the house! That's a huge point in their favor.

And they don't hork up hairballs.

And they don't think they're god's gift...

I could go on all day...

8. I like both and

my kitties don't scratch, they greet me at the door, and they are always up for hanging out.

[Arugula Latte]

9. A kitty attack won't endanger your life ... Unlike a dog attack.

Kitties don't stink like dogs.

Kitties don't bark.

Kitties don't slobber.

Kitties don't run up to you and stick their nose in your crotch.

Give me kitties over dogs ANY day! :bounce:

Kitties RULE.

P.S. My kitties greet me at the door. They are ALWAYS happy to see me and snuggle up with me.

10. I like cats and dogs both.

:)

[Arkansas Granny]

11. Comparing dogs and cats is the epitome of comparing

apples and oranges. I have always had both and loved them all for different reasons.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

14. True. But I'd also note that neither apples nor oranges eat their own poo.

[Arkansas Granny]

16. You make an interesting point. I would also note that I have

never seen apples or oranges make poo.

[radfringe]

15. I think we should be requesting a

Lounge-Pet forum... this way you can all go there to fight...

OHHHHH MR. or MS. MODERATOR... :rofl:

we have 5 cats - 3 dogs

youngest dog is 7 months old - still not house broken
the 5 year old dog won't poop in the snow if it touches her butt, so we have shovel out a spot
the 7 year old dog will go outside to do his business - but he wants to go out every 15 minutes to piss on a tree or the garden fence

all the cats were using the litter box by the time we brought them home when they were 8-12 weeks old

the cats hack up hairballs, usually at night, and always in a spot where my foot can find it and if not a hairball I'm stepping in it's a present from the pup who is not housebroken

two of the cats think the old coffee table is there personal scratching post - however the puppy thinks the arm of the futon is her chew toy

one of the cats sleeps on my head at night, another bats my face in the morning usually 1/2 hour before the alarm goes off to remind me I have to get up in a 1/2 hour to feed them

another cat thinks shredding toilet paper is a fun game, the pup prefers shredding whatever she can pull out of the trash can

Do you know what the best thing about them is? It's when you are bummed out, feeling miserable or just down in the dumps and they curl up in your lap, or lay down next to you and just love you

[Thirtieschild]

17. YES!!
