Are you a cat or dog person?

DOG:D

Im a Cat person.Although it is a bit disconcerting when they look you up and down with a dissaproving look that seems to say "That new shirt looks crap on you".

And there is the theory that a cat knows a human better than a human knows his or her self.

I've tasted both, and can't say I was impressed with either.

Suppose I'd go for dog, if I had to choose.

Silly, everyone around knows I'm a lost puppy.

More like a wet PUSSY!

cat. although i like some dogs. one of my teachers has a really nice dog that i met last night. it's the small, ugly dogs that are annoying.

While it's nice to occasionally have a slobbering mongrel jump all over you, sometime it's better to have the cold distance of a steel-eyed pussy....oh, you meant "dogs or cats"! My bad

100% cat person. Sara's talking about that she wants a dog. If that ever happends, I'll divorse her.

She couldn't argue with that.

Hopefully not, but she really has her own will.

Yeah, it's always a downer when your significant other has their own will.

Cats. Can't stand dogs, was bitten, in an unprovoked attack, by a German Shephard as a little kid. Then, whilst in high school, my parents had a couple of dogs that ruined my plants inside the house (horticulture at school gave me a green thumb).

Forgot: here's a pic of a cat that lives at my dad's farm; KC weighs in at about 33 pounds, his brother OJ tips the scales at 23, so it must either be genetics or way too many meices torn to pieces.

I Am The King!!!!

Sorry, what was the question again?

Pussy ((^))

I'm a cat person. Definitely.

We're keeping my wife's parents'dog during their hollidays. Holly fuck, I can't stand it any more. They'll be back in two days, and I think I'll be happy to see them as never before.

The simple fact of having to walk the dog four times a day, even in the rain, even in the cold, is a torture for me. And rain makes the beast stink. I definitely prefer the smell of a wet pussy to that of a wet dog. :D

dog person, definately - life with a dog is much more rewarding if they're properly trained. same goes for a man too. ;)

I'm probably more of a dog person, although I have come to appreciate the finer qualities of cats over the years.

I dunno, it's a tossup...

Dogs.. no, ca... auugghhhh

Cats just sit there-- they're very demeaning and they think they're better than you... but at least they're not hyper.

i love cats. love dogs too but its easier to take care of cats. but dogs you can take to the park and and play frisbee with. i love my cats, they're friendly and like to play and be pet, i couldnt livbe without those little ones.

Great screen capture!

DOG

Hate cats - except dead ones

I prefer no pets. Let them all live free in the wild as God intended.

What is the underlying emotional need that drives people to have pets?

cat. the barbs on their tongues ensure that they don't slobber on you; they require little maintenance, but if treated with respect and love they bring endless joy.

as for why people feel the need to have pets: they bring people happiness and help people live longer because of the companionship! also, as for these animals being in the wild 'as god intended': cats and dogs do not belong in the wild; they've been domesticated. the argument that cats, for example, need to be outside is a myth. as long as they're provided with entertainment and exercise they're better off indoors. an indoor cat is unaware that it is supposed to be outside--felines do not possess the equivalent of the jungian collective unconscious (whether humans possess it either is a whole different matter entirely); they don't dream about being outdoors and running wild if all they know is the comfort of their owner's home. also, because cats (and dogs) are not native to most environments, outdoor cats result in the destruction of wildlife. not to mention, there's nothing more sad than seeing a dead dog or cat lying by the side of the road because it had been hit by a car!

Hey, we need more cat lovers in Wisconsin. Feral cats are becoming a problem. There has been an effort to legalize hunting feral cats. Read the news at:

Maybe we need an underground railroad for the cats to move them to more cat friendly states :D

Don't like pets. Dogs is tasty though, like brisquet!

Harriet Tubman and like-minded individuals are always needed! :D

Check out the news story at the link below - a service to help you understand what your dog is saying when it barks. We need a volunteer to test it and report back.

I love any animal. All animals are our friends

When we still had a dog I was a dog-person (he died in 1994 after nearly 16 years ). Since then we gathered 7 cats - now I'm a cat person... (accordingly they gathered themselves - cats are like Tribbles).

Well...er... they didn't reproduce by...er...you know...:sex: . They just were there one day... (1 wished, 2 saved, 4 strayed to us)

Dogs have masters, cats have servants! it's a well known fact of life :D

this is (queen) Lizzy in our house

May I introduce our maddest cat: Hildegard (aka Hillu) (ca. 11 months old now)

"Come on touch me! - I won't hurt you!"

And our fattest cat: Dicky (which means "Fatty")

I'm sorry to hear that.

We lost one of ours at the beginning of this May. The poor boy was old and rickety...

So how much does that fat cat in the post above weigh? Dunno if you saw the link to a photo in my first post in this thread to a cat that my parents have, KC weighs in at about 33 pounds.

Well... Our Dicky has about 10-11 kilograms. She was already in that shape when she strayed to us. She is obviously a house-only cat who in mysterious ways got lost, and stood in front of our door some day. She is not very interested in going outside. She can't pass through the cat door anyway :\ohwell: .

She slimed (does this word exist?) a bit in the meantime...

I have two cats. They are shit. And they´ve pissed systemstically over my entire record collection. One day, I will microwave them.....

Ah, the downside of having cats, the ruination of furniture and record collection, I do sympathize with you on that.

Oh, Bere, yes there is a word that exists for that, you just forgot one "m" , it'd be slimmed :) I think that my dad's cat has got the edge on yours, weight-wise.

Oh thanks I remember - slime is something else... Thanks...

As a reward: Link to the full horror

My cat

my two boys are lovely.

gorrie--named after john gorrie, the refrigeration pioneer, who was from the town my parents lived in when they got him. he used to climb in the fridge every time they opened it and they couldn't get him out, hence his name. a few months ago he took off out the door and went on a five week 'vacation'. my parents, convinced he was dead, got another cat. gorrie returned and, as they could not have three cats in their apartment, gave him to me where he joined...

tyrone--16 pounds of pure love. named after christopher guest's character in 'the princess bride'. i fell in love with him at the pound a few months back when my parents and i were there looking for gorrie. he was full-grown and getting close to the dreaded 'last cage,' the cage after which lethal injection is the punishment for not being a cute and cuddly kitten who is easy to adopt.

sadly, my parents' older cat (who i consider my brother) was put to sleep two weeks ago after a short illness (possibly the early stages of cancer). he was 14 or 15. we don't really know how old he was as he was an adult when we adopted him; we had him since 1993. his ashes now sit in a tin on my parents' dining room table, his favourite spot. the new cat, ernie, hates everyone but my parents and has attacked me, unprovoked, while i've been on the toilet, talking on the phone, and doing laundry, among other things. i call him patty mccormack, after the actress in the film 'the bad seed'. i can picture him perfectly with that long blonde hair and those braids, the little twit.

Voted: Other. Cows are such wonderful animals. http://userpages.umbc.edu/~dschmi1/cows/sounds.html

I just love Pussies!

Felix Da Housecat

My old cat. He was a Russian Blue. He died aged 1.5. Some strange infection took his life

I once had a gerbil and it got some spine grippling disease and had to be put down but I got over it!

Whilst at the subject of cats ;)

Am a bit tired of that gerbil myself.....

Or I might tell him that our Birma cat ate him
