Poll: Which Pet is Superior, Cats or Dogs?

[Evil Smurf]

look at my avatar and guess what I chose, Dogs are idiots whereas cats are geniuses

 

[Jinxzy]

1. Rabbits
2. Pigs
3. Cats
4. Dogs
5. Velociraptors

Velociraptors all the way!

I would have to say cats. My friend though that loves dogs always says "A dog will lick your face then try to get help if your hurt, a cat will eat your face if its hungry." Always thought it was funny.

Dogs have souls, cats do not.
Case closed.

Also dogs give less people allergic reactions, therefor they make better pets in general.

 

[Arakasi]

I don't think either of them are inherently better and thus cannot vote.
Nor do I think either of them are better in my eyes.
If the poll is any indication, they are too close to call.

Dogs and Cats are pretty much tied with me. Honestly I have a closer attachment to my Lovebird than I do to my dog though. Even if she is an evil green demon summoned up from the darkest pits of Tartarus.

 

[Diddy_Mao]

All I'll say is that I've never walked past a house and thought to myself. "That place smells like they own dogs."

 

[vashthblackseed]

Neither, fancy rats are the only way to go.

 

[Overusedname]

It's a matter of preference.

I like the energy and affection of dogs far more than the 'oh, you're home' attitudes of Cats. In general, cat's are a simpler animal, but that has it's benefits.

Cat's tend to have fewer health problems as well.

 

[prophecy2514]

if I was to be objective i'd say a dog, because they have a greater emotional impact on their owners than a cat ever can, even though they are smellier, stinkier, stupider, and more insane. Posting this here for relevance http://fun.nuencias.com/2012/10/my-dog-paradox.html

Voted Dogs
(20 for cats 21 for dogs when I voted, I am the tie breaker wheeeeeeeew!)

Anyway. Dogs make the better pet, no matter how you look at it because Cats are not pets at all, they are tyrannical overlords made of pure spite and... you get the picture.

Dogs are just better company and they don't take you for granted (Which is the impression cats give me).

Well I just voted and broke the tie 42 for cats to 41 for dogs.

Honestly...dogs have their charm but I can't favor an animal that has to turn around in a circle 3 times before it can lay down.

And cats Purr!!!

Lastly cats are scientifically proven to have a greater effect on humans than dogs!!!

Spoiler: Behold the Grand Truth!!!

Grrrrrr![footnote]Cats are still superior. Have you noticed how puppies smell? Kittens don't stink like that.[sub][sub]Cats are still superior![/sub][/sub][/footnote]

Souls are overrated >.>

Cats all the way.

Dogs make so much damn noise, demand so much attention and poop all over the place.

Cats, on the other hand, are the quietest creatures ever, appreciate your attention but don't CRAVE it and they conveniently go to the bathroom in a box. Plus they meow adorably, not bark or growl loudly. And they're 190% more adorable than dogs (except hairless cats... those are just... *shiver*)

So yeah, cats.

 

[Trippy Turtle]

I am going to say cats because I normally prefer them but my favorite ever was a dog. His name was Beans and he will be avenged!

 

[Sutter Cane]

I personally prefer dogs since they tend to be more personable in my experience, while cats are much more aloof. That's just not really my thing.

 

[shrekfan246]

Why not both?

More seriously, I prefer cats. They're fluffy and soft and cuddly, and once they're not kittens anymore they're usually not extremely hyper-active at the slightest sounds.

 

[someonehairy-ish]

Cats are lower maintenance but I rarely see a cat that seems to give a shit about its owner. Contrast with dogs, which can be a pain occasionally and usually cost more in food and other supplies, but then they go berserk with happy waggy tails when you come through the door and it makes all of the day's frustrations go away.

Both animals have lovely and nasty individuals, much like people. But dogs get my vote.

[sub]We have a puppy. Her name is Bella (after Bellatrix Lestrange) - she's adorrrraaaabllleee [/sub]

Isn't your avatar technically a cat?

Are you saying Klonoa has no soul?? D:

OT: Personally, I prefer dogs. There's just something about them that I can't quite place my finger on, I just love them a lot.

 

[shintakie10]

I love both since I grew up in a house with both and they were all adorable, but if I absolutely had to choose I'd pick dogs since I've had more dogs than cats. Cats are cool and they're exceptional for people like me who are ridiculously lazy because you can play with them and never have to get off the couch to do it (laser pointer ftw), but dogs are just more fun.

 

[StormShaun]

I like both but I feel like a dog is more fun to be around.
Still like both though, they can be so fluffy and cute.

I would like to see what owning a Husky is like though...must be tough but rewarding. ^.^
