And that is exactly why I prefer cats. Dogs are so annoying, always looking for attention and depending on you... At least cats can shit on their own, among other things... |

After being around cats and dogs now at the same time, I see such a difference. (Big surprise eey?) |

You just have to properly calibrate yourself to cat affection, Howie. It's easy to learn... |

I think it also depends on the individual animal... |

Ignorant bliss is an oxymoron; but so is miserable truth.
Waay too much credit here!! |

They are both good pets who show a lot of affection. Cats are more like wild animals; they haven't been domesticated as long as dogs, and some of them just aren't really very tame. They can be more fun to watch because of that. It just depends on what you like. Dogs--good for walking with, barking, digging holes, outdoor stuff. Cats--good for sitting on your lap while you're on the computer or watching a movie, purring, and getting hair on you and in your food. Both fill niches in our lives. |

I have never been able to really get to know a cat, even cats I have had for pets. It is like having pet rats or deer. There just isn't much of a connection. I have felt that way with every cat I have ever come across. |

How do you know you are not dreaming right now?
yaa that's why = |

For every anti-social recluse of a cat, there is an untamed, constantly barking, canine tunnel-maker of a dog . |

Ack! I just now saw this this! |

I know why you feel this way about dogs. I don't think like that, but it's your opinion. Just to let you know! Crows make awsome pets They give a LOT of affection, they're incredibly playful and they are unbelievably smart. And they do not just "kiss your ass", you can tell, they are very loveable birds, their companionship can be seen with them all. Hence why you rarely see a magpie on its' own. Also training them is not at all like a dog, you find it easy to patronise dogs when teaching them something, but with a crow, all you really need to do is make sure they see you doing something. Me and my Dad were amazed to find that "Maggie" (my magpie) had began to tie knots in things, she has this toy which she has had since a chick which is a small circular mirror on a long piece of string, when she got older and lived in a large run/cage we used to tie it to one of her perches, she used to pull at the string at the perch until it fell off, and we would continue to hang it up there Until one day we went in to find she had taken it off the perch, and tied a loose knot to the small apple tree growing in the aviary. We were so shocked to find that she began to make "knots" a widely practised skill in her life |

I think it depends on what you want from the pet - Cats are not really the type of animal you can do a great deal with, I know my 2 cats were pretty cool to have about the house, but not like a dog, you could take to the park and play about with all day... But again it depends on the type too, if you got a great big killer dog or a little handbag dog lol. |

Things are not as they seem

...........................!?!?!?! Why are Dogs tails cut off! I have never seen such a thing, this isn't common place is it!?!?! |
|
Lugggs and cuddles and hugs for all!!
People often get gundogs' tails cropped to stop them from getting them caught, which, indeed would be more of a painful situation than having them surgically shortened, also just for show... Of course it's immoral, but... It would be more unethical to use them for retrieving and not have them shortened. |

There are A LOT breeds in which tail docking is done to conform with breed standard. Tail docking is done when the pup is 2 days (or less) old, so it is rarely up to the owner whether to have it done or not. The idea behind it is that the breeds are developed for certain purposes, herding, guarding, working, etc, and a tail may inhibit the dog in these activities. Do some research and you will see. Most of the time, the tails are docked because this is the way the breed was meant to look, and breeders are conforming with breed standards. |

If you died in your house and the cat ran out of food and it couldn't get out of the house it would eat your dead ass. I don't think a dog would. |

Yes, do please tell us how you came to this conclusion. |
