Oh, my. How to choose. I have a cat, and I'd have a dog, too, if I had room for one. I love cats and dogs. Dog sitting as we speak. Actually, dog sitting is a good deal for me (besides getting paid) because I have all the fun of a dog (sometimes more than one) and none of the expense!
I love Kitty cats, but you have to keep up with the litterbox, so I choose Puppy dogs, just open the door, and they're out the door to do their business. :tapfoot:
Tough one for me too, as I have a cat and a dog. I guess if I had to choose, even though I can call myself a cat person, I'd choose a dog. They can accompany me on walks outside of the home, and rides in the car. Butttt....if I was older and not able to get out much, I'd prefer a cat.
At present we are pet-less...but it would be tuff for me to choose. It has always been the individual dog or cat that won me over...I'll hav'ta sleep on it.
I love other people's dogs...but I am and always have been a cat person. I am just always happy to see people happy with their pets and treating them well...
I prefer my tarantula spider! We have had loads of cats and dogs over the years, but when the last one died in 2002 I put my foot down. I was the poor idiot who had the job of looking after them, and walking the flipping dogs!
Definitely a dog and a smaller one at that.. We now have a toy Pomeranian and we simply love her..
We had both cats and dogs before but my wife was always sick from the cat.. Allergic to the dander..
Can't leave ANY animal out the door alone around here.. It wouldn't last one minute with all the wildlife just outside our house....
Besides, responsible owners always "stoop and scoup"......
We do not have a pet now but over the years we had two lovely border collies, one at a time.
They lived to a good old age and were great companions. If we got another dog now it would likely out live us
and someone else would have to care for our pet, so we just remember the good dogs that we had.
Two dogs have shared my life; a red poodle and a white sharpia. One as a young man, the other in retirement. I have never been owned by a cat. Of course if necessary I would choose a dog, but my dog days are over. There will be no more animals in my life unless I meet them on the trail. I have owned two raccoons. One rode a bike with me for several years. When I'd start up my old Harley, he'd coming running and jump up on the gas tank, always ready to go.
