No, dogs just want you to play with them. The only reason they hang around you and do what you say is because they think they will get something out of it.
My cat is more loyal than any dog, she almost never wants to leave my side.
Dogs. Cats are very pretty, but seem too uptight in my opinion.
Definitely dogs.
Reason number 1: Look at my sig.
Reason number 2: They're just oh-so fun to play with when they're pups. ^_^
Reason number 3: They don't leave as much fur lying around as cats.
Reason number 4: No hairballs > hairballs
Reason number 5: Dogs poop outside.
Reason number 6: Dogs are more active and have super noses and ears.
Reason number 7: Dogs are loyal.

When my friend had this kitten, my other friend and I would put our fingers in its mouth and it would chew on our fingers. It was so cute! ^_^
Counter reason 4: Hyper jumping dog welcome < Quiet little Meow welcome.
That also depends on what kinda dog you get. Few dogs actuallah do that.
Reason number 5: Dogs poop outside.
Counter reason 5: And you have to clean it up.
You have to do the same with kitties and litterboxes. The point I was trying to make is that litter boxes really stink up the room you put them in and adjacent rooms.
Counter reason 6: Cats are more cudly and have super super ears.
*Does a dance, then eats TP*
Counter reason 7: Cats are loyal...they don't run away as much xD
*Clones TP, then eats 'em*
I like dogs more, they seem more loyal then cats. I dont like big dogs though, like the rotten lab we have out back in the yard, I like small dogs because they dont trout as much as big dogs like the rotten lab. Like big dogs are like suv of dogs, they poop and pee more then a tiny dog... :\
Breathe on the border of my country and you will die a slow and happy death.Quote:

Cats are WAY better, cooler and cuter... and lazier! :) Yea being lazy is :thumb: all the way!!!!!!!
As creatures, both have their merits. However, cats are low maintenance, and thus more practical and satisfying to own for a lazy person such as myself.
i cant decide,dogs are fun and playful but are too playful sometimes and just get annoying,and cats are fun too but all they do sometimes is eat and sleep sometimes but they are pretty cute
Dogs > Cats. 'Nuff said.
Do I really have to say it?
Cats don't make your house smell like a rubbish tip.
*votes* :)
I prefer kitties! Because they are just pretty, and my kitties sit on my lap and make me feel better and stuff and they are quieter than dogs and do their own thing more and are less slobbery. Dogs are okay though. But living in a house where we've bred cats and owned cats and kittens all my life, it's natural that I'd say cats I guess ^_^

Dogs all the way. Cats are inherintly evil. I've had both a cat and a dog. The dog was overall more loyal, cooler and it ate what I fed him. The cat on the other hand smelled of rubbish most of the time because he was always searching through bins for food, so he wouldn't eat what I fed him, the food which smelled really bad. And his loyalty was questionable at best, as he left to go live with some Irish woman round the corner from me. Also I had to keep checking my cats fur for concealed weaponry. I just couldn't take any chances.
When my dog died I missed him really alot. When my cat left I didn't really care. Shows which I prefered really.
I have five cats.:D
I like dogs too, but not as much as cats.
I like what Leeza and Dr Unne like. :)
Cats. I'm allergic to almost all dogs, so I don't relly have a choice in the matter. Although cats do bug me...they seem to die quite often, which is annoying. ;) Mine never wants to be held, even though I like to hold. Oh well. I still voted for cats. I'd love to have a dog though...
:D
i picked cats because i do not like dogs... sure they're cute, but you have to like... be with them every single second or they will trout on the walls and eat everything. they're just pains. cats are so much sweeter that dogs, they crap in a box, you dont hafta walk them, you can leave them without worrying... and they smell better. they are just overall BETTER than dogs.
C-A-T-S
Cats are kicking canine butt.
I love cats more than dogs. They're soft and cuddly. So soft I own two. xD
The next person that doesn't vote for dogs will kill this dog and every other dog that's as cute and cuter.
*stabbity* *stabbity* *stabbity* *stabbity* *stab*
Dogs may die for the glory of kitties.
CATS!!!
DUDE!!! CATS!!!!
THEY PURR AND ROCK AND STUFF!! MEOWMEOWMEOWMEOWMEOWMEOWMEWOMEOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chaos
Dogs are far too superior to cats. I don't really like animals that are arrogant by nature. "Ok, pet me a bit then, but then I'll have to get back to ignoring you again". Dogs are so much more dedicated. A friend for life, I guess. Cats run off oftener than dogs too, so I don't really get attached to cats :p Oh, and they're better to cuddle with. Because they're bigger, or at least some of them. I don't like small dogs, they're practically cats.. only not.
Dogs. No doubt.

No they are not, they jump to us and it's awaful! I'm always scared when I see at huge dog! :(

Dogs they are playful, loyal, and when you come home it welcomes you instead of just staying on the couch and you don't have to buy a litter box and cat litter noone wants to clean a litter box but nobody wants thier house smelling like crap. Dogs > Cats.

I think the real question is "has anybody ever seen an ugly puppy?".
i myself prefur cats since i recently had to bottle feed 5 kittys cause my DOGS killed their mom the third day after they were born. and your dogs might chase their tails but my kitty chases his too. his is infact in my lap right now purring. He sleeps with me dosent poop on the floor like my inside dogs even thought they were just outside. He follows me evrywhere i go cause im his mom and he doesnt get as annoying as my dogs. and as sumone said earlier that dogs dont jump aroung and stuff i have four reeds of dogs and three of them jump around the only reason the fourth doesnt jump around is hes way to fat and hes old poor black lab. so there and thats talking about only one of my cats i could talk about my other 5 but that would be too long. Oh and in my whole life of having cats i have never seen a hair ball.
*Cries* You thoughtless jerks just killed 12 puppies! :'( :cry: :shame:
Cool, puppy burgers all around!
Yes. This thing is not cute in any way, shape or form.Quote:

The I Hate Cats Collection
That puppy is adorable, you sick, disgusting freaks.
Cats couldn't give a damn about you. My dog loves me more than anything else in the world. She only jumps on me when I say 'Jump.' I kiss her on the lips and everything. She lays in my lap and takes nap. It's the cutest thing.
Cats run away when you get close to them and scratch the crap out of you.
Cats don't give a damn about you? My cat won't leave me alone, she sleeps at the foot of my bed every night, she constantly "talks" to me and always greets me with a kitty bow (streching front paws out) and meows a hello, then rubs against me. You have to earn a cats effection. Dogs are so stupid as long as you give them food you are cool to them.
Cats are the incarnation of the Dark Lord Lucifer and/or his minions. They are spiteful, cocky, un-loving little ghouls.
My puppy, however is fun and playful, and chicks dig her. I can't take a damn cat to Chick-Fil-A and get swarmed with girls. No sir. Probably get rocks thrown at me.
Go dogs.
Ever see Homeward Boud? Yeah. No one gave a rap about Sassy. It was all about Shadow, man. He was DEAD. He was stuck in a damn MUD PIT with a BROKEN LEG. And he got out JUST SO HE COULD SEE PETER. That's loyalty, man. Sassy would have layed down and DIED. But not Shadow. No way Jose. When the cat was all "oh i hate nature im a WUSS" Shadow was all "SHUT UP, BITCH, I'M RUNNIN THE SHOW HERE" and the cat was all ":(" and Chance was over there going "Hey Porcupine!", but he doesn't count cause he was stupid. But he was also Micheal J Fox, so that makes him instantly cool. Because he would later transform into a real boy and travel back in time.
But the point is, cats suck. Micheal J. Fox said so.
I watched that show a million times, Sassy even got the dogs to agree that cats rule. Not to mention she was always the funniest and smartest. She always knew how to get what she wanted,she wasa survivor, she got fish for both dogs, she always had a witty come back and her master was hawt if I can remember that far back. She also realy wanted to get back to her master.
But did she climb out of an right foot mud pit with a broken leg? I don't think so.
Plus if it wasn't for the dogs that bear would have eaten her.
She didn't climb out of the mudpit because she was too smart to fall in one and didn't hear anyone falling in to begin with (if i can remember.)
Cats are cute and cuddle with you and purr and are soft and nice. Dogs smell bad and stuff. :(
She did fall in. >:(
And Shadow fell in because the board broke and the boards fell on him and broke his leg but he STILL GOT OUT AND WALKED ALL THE WAY BACK TO PETER.
Didn't you see the deleted scene where Shadow bit Peter and gave him Rabies?
See? Cats have the ability to jump out of mud pits without injuring themselves. Another plus.Quote:

Yeah and I also saw the other one where Sassy up and killed everyone else with her Satanic powers and then lowered herself intot he depths of hell where she revealed herself to be high priestess over the Underwold.
Cats rule and Dogs drool, Cats rule and Dogs drool, Cats rule and Dogs drool.
People declaw their cats...they never declaw dogs.
Yeah, they debark them instead.
Dogs. :)
Doggies are all of those things, except they don't smell bad and stuff.Quote:

Dogs have saved many people. What have cats done? Spit out hairballs? Stink up rooms with litterboxes? Clawed people? Dogs r teh own. :moomba: (Closest thing to a dog)
Dogs do smell. My sister has a dog and her apartment has a verry strong yucky dog smell.
It must depend on the dog. Nonetheless, dogs own cats like burning. Why do you think dogs are more expensive than kitties?
My cat was $500
And yeah, you get what you pay for. My cat is a realy great cat.
I sure hope it was one of those wrinkly, furless cats.
She was and is a very pretty Siamese kitty.
You can say that SB's puppy was ugly (though it's not), but there's no way in hell that it's uglier than that sphinx cat kitten, which is the poster child for true evil. Didn't you see that episode of Friends where Rachel got a cat and it scratched the crap out of her? Then in another episode they got a dog and everyone was like 'OMG SO CUTE <3' and stuff.
I've noticed several people say that dogs need your love. That's not really true. Dogs don't need your love, they want it. They want to know that the master that they love so much loves them back. They would give their lives for their master, and the least any person could do is love them back. And why doesn't a person want a super-hyper doggie welcome at the door? Think about what's going through their heads at that time. "HEY! You've come to see me! I love you so much! I'm so happy that you took time out of your busy day to come see me, who loves you so much!" A cat in the same situation? "Meow. Oh, it's you. Neat" *cat walks away*
Dogs are without a doubt the superior animal, which is the question being asked. With all the stuff that SB mentioned of what they do for humanity as a whole...dogs love humans, us, far more than cats ever will. The love that they show for us on a daily basis, how happy they are that we would even want them, plainly shows that a dog will always be your friend, in good times and bad. They will always be there for you. Cats, on the other hand...run away from you way too much. They scratch much more than dogs do, and they throw up on the floor a lot.
My cousins, who live in Oklahoma, have had 4 dogs and about 10 cats. Why have they had so many cats? Because 8 of them have run away. Right now they have 2 dogs, because they sold one (because he was a hunting dog) and the other died. Cats run away much more. Yet, I've noticed, it doesn't seem to effect the owner that much when a cat dies. Why? Because they don't love the animal. Dogs affect an owner's life so much more. They become emotionally attached to the animal in such a way that it's even more than a friend. It's a bond that lasts forever, because people will remember that no matter what, it was their dog that was there for them. I've never heard a story like that with a cat. People have always loved dogs more than cats as a whole. Why? Because it's easy to see that the dog loves them more. This friendship that exists between man and canine far exceeds a bond that can exist with man and feline. This, above all, makes the dog a superior animal.
Oh, and Shadow pwns.
Ok so a cat clawed a person on a t.v. show. Which is staged. A Dog tore an eldy womans arms off while she was babysitting it. Thats real life.
Show me a link and maybe I'll consider giving a counter point.

Doing an internet search and finding random tidbits. I will post em as I find em.

So, thats... 16 so far including my previous post.
Still more but im done reading about dogs.
These reminded me of something. My $500 Siamese kitty-baby was violent shook in the air by a grayhound. She then ran inside and hid under my parent's waterbed for 2 days. From this day she cant be anywhere near a dog without giving a violent "hissy fit"
That's it! Tastey have shown us that dogs are PURE EVIL!!! :eek:
Well, people were saying Cats were evil just because they liked to hang out by themselves. I had to say something.
Dogs end up violent because of their surroundings. Any animal could be trained to kill. The only reason dogs are used instead of cats is because, well, they're bigger and more powerful.
Dogs are losing? Weak sauce.
What about the PUPPIES who attacked a toddler who recieved 40 stiches and lost a toe permanently. Puppies man, PUPPIES. They weren't raised in a hostile environment. I mean, they wern't raised at all.
http://www.igorilla.com/gorilla/anim...er_attack.html
Besides in some of those cases the owners said that the dogs were usualy timid, like the one that attacked the 3 year old in the park. who was doing little more than being held by his mother.
http://www.igorilla.com/gorilla/anim...ttweilers.html
Look, there's no use trying to convince each other that dogs/cats are evil or that dogs/cats are superior. It's all a matter of personal preference. Sure, some dog might have mauled an old woman, or some cat might have scratched a child's eyes out, but these are just bad examples of each species. For every crazy animal there are a hundred cute and lovable ones.
I personally prefer cats, because I find taking care of a dog to be a chore. Other people prefer to be involved with their pets, and take a dog because it is more sociable. Different pets for different people. Neither is overall 'superior'.
Nope, cats rawkQuote:

I like dogs better, ones that you can play catch with lol :p
Cats. Dogs are stupid and I believe they have no real personality. All of my 5 cats have their individual personalities which are all likabale.
BEANS-Loyal, mellow and very human like
TOAST-Loner,homosexual-like and gentle
PUD-Agnsty, Caring and active
MARMITE-Playful, loving and decent
CRACKERS-Insane, Disturbed and craves love
(Crackers we rescued from the street, hence the behavior. She is better 2 years down the linem, then she was when we first got her)
All equate that Cats are better than Dogs.
Cats rule! I love cats.
I like dogs too though only a few breeds.
Shlup's cat should be enough to settle this question.
