I was just wondering a while ago why dogs are called a mans best friend and cats aren't...I've kept both dogs and cats as pets and although they are very different in nature yet they both do show love to their owners. What would you prefer to keep as pets, a dog or a cat, both shed fur and both demand attention, please do let me know your preferred choice and reasons for it!

Hi dear! Given the choice, I would prefer dogs, as they appear more loyal and faithful to me and could be taught many things, in comparison to cats. One of my friends had doga and cats as pets but he would complaint that sometimes cats used to run away from his house and will return, only when they require food, they were not as loyals, as dogs were.

Hello sonz_doreen, That is great that you have both dog and cat. Since you are keeping this 2 animals, which one you thinks is the best to be humans best friend? As for me, I don't keep any dogs or cats before. I dislike keeping pet as it is not easy to keep the pets and you need time to take care of the, feed them and play with them. I have 2 kids now, it is not easy bringing up 2 kids hence I never think of want to keep any pets at this moment. But my 3-year-old daughter loves dogs. She sometimes asks me to buy a pet dog for her. I think when she grow older and know how to take care of herself and able to looks after the pets, then I will decide to buy a dog for her.

I like both animals as my pets. Dog are man best friend and cats are ladies pets. The differences between the two are in terms of intelligence and a matter of obedience. I observe dogs pets are more easy to teach instructions and could be train in a short time. More obedient, affectionate, trusted, playful and loyal guard to her man friends. While cats is more preferred by ladies and only fewer men prefers to raise cats. Cats are likely more aggressive and attention seeker. Both pets are affectionate but their differ also in terms of their hygiene. What very bad about cats over feeding leads them to become greedy and worse they scratch things all over the house. The worse is the smell of cats feces and they hard to discipline to remind them the place where they have to do their things, you have to repeat, it even their own names for them to recall..The good things about cats in the homes, mice are afraid of them..While dogs get more good memories and you could teach them easily with new tricks. Then, cats always like comforts and sleep all the time..This is what I observe with the behavior of cats and dogs..

I love dogs more than anything. they are really sensible & loving than any other animals. so I prefer dogs more. I had a dog long back, but since then I never had the chance to own one. may be in future I'll have one hopefully.
