Obozo likes dogs because they help him project a certain image

"They say that cats are very intelligent but I haven't seen that yet in a cat, but I know my dog is brilliant."

Cats figured out that you'll feed them anyway.

He doesn’t like dogs. It was just PR. I don’t know what he likes. Golf, I guess.

My dog doesn 't stalk my goldfish,
he curls up beside the brooder while the new peeps grow (I think he likes the heat lamp),
he let's us know if someone has come visiting (strangers are a different bark than for friend or family),
he greets us with kisses when we get home from anywhere no matter how long or short the separation,
he smiles,
he was born 9 or so years ago at the neighbors house (that is no longer there) and he patrols that area still
often seen sitting like Balto surveying his charge .. the mayor of the neighborhood (we live rural and that 'perch' is on a hill .. very picturesque),
when my Filipina wife came to the house for the first time two years ago, Bubba instinctiveky knew she needed more than just me and my relationships and adopted her as his resposability,


and his name is Bubba, some black Lab lookin' Heinze 57.

Cats. If you understand them, they are not boring...

I used to consider myself a dog person, but (over the years) I’ve had both.

Dogs are friendlier, more loyal, and better for guarding the home. But they are also needier, nosier and dirtier.

Cats are cleaner and quieter, but very independent—they will only pay attention to you when they damn well want to. And, yes, they are awesome at catching mice.

I currently have a dog, but feel guilty about it as I don’t (can’t) spend as much time with it as I should. As a result, I think its rather lonely.

My cat owns me.

I work long hours and don’t want to walk a dog when I get home. My neighbors dog would howl at all hours and I wanted to put my foot up his kazoo everytime he started. One night he started at 6:30pm and howled until after 4am. He’s a Jack Russell! He now only barks at squirrels, rabbits, mailmen, tree leaves, the wind, his own gas, airplanes, children, clouds, and anything else that moves.

He has to be a libera. Stupid dog!

I own a pug and they a definitely one of the dumbest creatures creatures ever put on God’s green earth. And also one of the most loveable. Losing her will be like losing one of the family. It WILL be losing one of the family. A good dog is the closest thing we will ever see to true unconditional love.

When the weather is bad, I don’t have to take my cat out for a walk to poop. She has her cat pan.

We have both, but I like the company of dogs better. Cats are just so damn aloof and anti-authoritarian. “You don’t want me to walk up here on the counter? I’ll do it anyway. Nah-nah-nanny-boo-boo.”

I’m a cat lady from stem to stern. I have four right now. Jack, my little soldier, who likes to play cat-wants-in, cat-wants-out all weekend. Fluff, the Queen, who wants a taste of whatever I’m eating, and likes to drink out of the bathtub tap. Skeek, the writhing satiny sidewinder snake, who squirms wildly when you pet her, and runs in terror from anything that makes a rustling noise, and Angel the all-white kitty who will play fetch-the-toy-mouse with me. I mean, she literally fetches it and brings it back. They make me happy.

Too much dumb generalization in this article, IMO. I’ve always been a big animal lover, including dogs and cats, but cats have the edge with me. And I consider myself pretty outgoing-—not at all aloof.

there really is a difference between "dog people" and "cat people."

A dog says my owner feeds me, shelters me, pets me, plays with me, and loves me; he must be a God.

A cat says my owner feeds me, shelters me, pets me, plays with me, and loves me; I must be a God.

We have always had both until a few years ago when our last cat passed on. We decided to add a dog, but no more cats.

The reason no more cats:litter box, they run from and hide if they get outside, they get on tables and counters if you aren’t home to tell them no, they scratch furniture, rugs, etc.

For a few years we only had cats, they don’t replace a dog. Granted, dogs are more trouble for sure. You can leave a cat for a weekend with a huge bowl of food and water and they are fine. A dog, I don’t think so unless you can train them to a litter box or leave them outside which I would never do.

I like cats, but they are rodents compared to dogs like the loyal German Shepherd
