Im definitely more of a dog person. While i do have a cat and a dog, i just think a dog is much more fun to have. You can walk or play fetch with a cat, and cats never seem to care what you do. My dog on the other hand acknowledges me everyday and shes awesome

My dog is pretty much affectionate and he loves playing with me like your dog we also play fetch a lot. They seem to know when your feeling sad and when you need someone to hug on a rainy day :)

I would consider myself both a cat and dog person. I have many of each and I love them all. My boyfriend claims he doesn't really like either one but I catch him playing with both all the time so I know better. But dogs tend to be more social, at least in my house. The dogs are good companions while the cats are good for entertainment.

My boyfriend hates cats cause he hates the way they rub their necks on your feet. But I do agree with you that cats are good for entertainment and dogs are for companionship.

I've had both dogs and cats, and tend to prefer cats. But I don't dislike one or the other. At times, I think I'd like to have another dog. But that isn't really a possibility now since I already have cats. And knowing them, they wouldn't be too thrilled about me letting a big, loud, slobbery dog into the family. I think the reason I prefer cats is that they are very self sufficient and independent. They aren't demanding of your time and attention like dogs can tend to be. I know a lot of people don't appreciate the independence and aloofness of cats. But I'm okay it.

I do agree with you. Cats are very independent and they are very clean animals too. What I dont like about them though is when they scrath things in our house - read that its a way for them to clean their claws. Anyways, I have nothing against them and we even have one in our house. I think that the kind of pet a person choose would depend on the kind of personalty they have. My sister doesnt like the attitude of dogs thats why she has a cat and I on the other hand love giving attention so Im into dogs.

Like you I love both, in fact Ijust love animals. But I am definately more of a cat person. I just love them. I get so much peace watching them. They are so independant and they let you know it. I don't really care for neediness. I get lost of companionship from my cats. They rub up against me, the sleep with me, the play with me or rather let me play with them, they jump into my arms when they know I am feeling down, the massage my tired back when they are kneading on me, they make me laugh, they give great kisses, and they are very loving. They also keep me calm, because wathcing them play and sleep just seems to relax me and get peace throwing through me. I think they are adorable and they are so curious. They help keep me young.

I am definitely a dog person. We have two dogs at home: one is a poodle terrier and the other one is a shitzu. I love dogs..they are really man's bestfriend. I HATE Cats!!! I hate cats rubbing on my legs...my mom adopted a number of cats and I hate them especially because they brought fleas and ticks in the house. Major bummer!!!

Looks like most of the people posting here are dog persons. I really wanted to have a shitzu but we couldnt get one before because most of the dogs we have a big breeds. Im planning to get one before my birthday. Probaby a shitzu or a duschund so they can sleep with me. As for the cats, hmmm looks like your mom adopted them for good. Just get some good anti- flea powders for them from the vet and have your house cleaned.

I am definitely more of a dog person! I love all animals, but cats are not very high up in my favorites. I have a cat whom I adore, but he acts much more like a dog then a cat. I find that dogs are more interactive, and it can be more on your terms rather then when the cat feels like it. My personality is just more like a dogs' then a cats'.

I have a simease cat and a mixed breed cat. I also have an eskimo spitz puppy. I love them all for different reasons. My simease cat seems to sense when I am sick and she will not leave my side. she lays at my head till I feel better. My puppy loves to play and lays by my feet when I am on the computer. I dont think that I love either of them more than the other but I do love them for different reasons

definitely dogs. though cats can be the cutes pets on earth, i find them boring(no offense to cat lovers! ^_^V ). besides, we're not allowed to have cats for pets anyway.
