If You Could Only Choose ONE, which Would It Be: DOG or CAT??

I have 5 cats and 4 dogs.. They all take turns being my favorite... but I must admit to having a soft spot for Pete my Australian Shepard mix. But he is the most challenging for sure. A real pain in the patoot.
 

If I really wanted a pet and could have one where I lived, it would be a dog. Dogs aren't allowed where I live so decision made for me.
 
I've had many cats over the years but none now. I really love cats, but lately have started to appreciate dogs. However, I think I'm going to be without a pet for the time being and see if I can get used to it.
 

I love dogs, but I'd definitely want to be reincarnated as a cat.

I have this theory: dogs were used car salesman, TV evangelists, or sleazy defense lawyers in their previous lives. They have a lot of karma to work off before they can shuffle off this mortal coil, so they patiently put up with a lot of stuff from humans...having to do stupid pet tricks, kids crawling all over them, getting stepped on a lot, etc. The more they suffer, the faster they'll get to move on to a higher life form, so they're only too happy to suffer. Cats, on the other hand, apparently have been saints, martyrs, and elementary school teachers in their previous lives and thus have nothing left to prove. They don't have to atone for anything and they *won't* suffer human fools gracefully. Cats do not subscribe to the Burger King credo.....you either get it *their* way or you don't get the sonofabitch at all.

How could you NOT want to be a cat?
 
CATS!!!!!!! I wouldn't want to live without them.

I did for six months after my last old girl died and I adopted the two kittens (they'll be 4 this April) I finally had the apartment all set up nicely and then had to take everything away as the little angels took over their domain. It's their home too.
 
Dogs, always. I love labrador retrievers and I always have at least two -- rescues, of course. Couldn't live without my doggies. I have dog doors into my enclosed backyard, so they can come and go as they please. Poop-scooping is not my favorite pastime, but it's a necessary evil and a small price to pay for the love and companionship and laughs they give me.
