Dog Vs. Cat as home pets

Our cats a boy and a girl are very sweet. They bury their poop in our backyard so we don't smell their poop. Cats are very cautious and very playful. I have not heard any cats who knows tricks.. We have four dogs. One of them is inside the house because he is gentle and behave. He doesn't wreck furniture and doesn't bite people. Though his litter are scattered all around the house, that's the only disadvantage of having a dog. But overall, having pets are very nice and is healthy for every household *it's a fact, i have read it on a magazine*. I even read that it extends the lifetime of a person *fights depression*.

I have 3 catsand they are each very different. Rocky is very clean, he hates it when their litter box smells. The other two cats know it well, they are brothers after all, so they keep it clean. We had another 2 kittens for a little bit and the boy kept on making a mess in the litter box, so after he would use a bathroom, Rocky would come over to the litter box, sniff it make a disguasted face, cover the feces and go to the kitten who did it and slap him. It lookes very funny lol. He is very lovy dovy and he wants attantion all the time. Before he was too shy to ask for hugs, but now he figured out that if he askes, he wil get them, So he follows me around all day long and asks for attantion. he would meow at me till he gets what he wants. Baron is a very playful and very sweet cat, he is very fluffy and he likes to clean himself and other cats. I don't know how he does that, but he always smells different, usually sweet smell though. It's strange, i never seen a cat that smells like sweet. He is the smallest of the 3, so he used to get picked on by his brothers until he learned that he is the fastest. Now he runs into other cats and pushes them into walls. He is a little crazy too lol. Very sweet though. I computer is close to their furniture, so when he wants hugs he comes over to a shelf behind my chair and taps me on a shoulder when he wants hugs. Boss is... well... the boss. He is very protective of his brothers and me. He would rather put himself in danger but save his brothers. When we got them (rescued from previous owners who abused them) we tried to catch other cats first, but he would run to us and scratch to give his brothers time to get away. When his broher's games get too wild and someone gets hurt, he is the one to come over and stop the fight. He also thinks i'm his girlfriend lol. All 3 of them used to scratch me, but they stoped. One day i got tired of getting scratched so i just sat down with Boss after he scratched me and told him that it hurts and asked him not to do it again. Not only that he stoped scratching me after that, but he made sure his brothers ween't scratching me ether. Rocky scratches me sometimes though. If i touch his head a certain way he remembers the abuse and gets into protective mode, so he scratches the hand. He also sometimes scratches my legs through the blanket. He likes hunting thinks under the blanket, i guess becasue he thinks it's Barron because Baron likes to hide under blankets lol. As for dogs greeting you when you come home, my cats greet me when i come home. They sit by the door when they hear me coming back :) once i enter Baron usually tries to run away to show how unhappy he is that i was gone for so long. If i don't try to stop him he gets even more upset though lol.

I have 3 cats and 3 dogs. And I appreciate both for their different personalities. So for your list I will add Cats 8. Can stay by themselves for the weekend while you go away. 9. Will curl up on your lap when you are upset. 10. Don't need crazy toys. All you need is a box and a ribbon. 11. Will purr sweetly when they are petted. 12. Take very small amount of space on your bed. 13. Will bring you small gifts, sometimes not so nice ones though! Dogs 10. Will bark if a fly passes by! 11. Will put their head on your lap when you are upset. 12. Love to go for car rides. And hang their heads out the window. 13. Will occasionally have accidents inside the house! And that really stinks. 14. Will always protect your family. I'm sure I can think of lots more, but all for now.
