You don't see stray dogs running up the pavement some times?

yeah ofcourse, but you see alot more cats..

and tbh if you hit a dog with your car, it will do more damage to your car and the cardriver will prolly stop to pick up the wounded dog.. Pretty sure they will continue driving when they hit a cat.

Dunno about stray cats or dogs.

Never seen one since i moved to Helsinki, guess we don't have that sorta problem here.

But i've heard plenty of run aways, both dogs and cats, and it hurts the owner just as much either way.

So guess that's no comparison.

People that say cats don't give affection etc just haven't spent enough time with the right cat. You do have to earn their trust, in the same way that you wouldn't expect a human to show you affection when you first meet them.

I have two cats, one of whom chases her tail in the bath (she's not a kitten, she's nearly 6!) and the other of which sleeps between me and my husband in bed, with his head on the pillow. When we go away for more than a day, both cats get really upset no matter who else is feeding them - they sulk and go off their food, and when we come back, they love it :)

Like I said, anyone that doesn't think cats can be affectionate or loving doesn't know cats tbh.

Sometimes you hear about dogs gone wild, no matter how tame they are..

Altho cats go hunting, because they are bored.. My cat catches tons of mice!

Even caught snakes and a squirrl it ate :x

EXCERPTS FROM A CAT'S DIARY

DAY 752 -
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant.

DAY 761 -
Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded, must try this at the top of the stairs. In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favourite chair... Must try this on their bed.

DAY 765 -
Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was... Hmmm. Not working according to plan.

DAY 768 -
I am finally aware of how sadistic they are. For no good reason I was chosen for the water torture. This time however it included a burning foamy chemical called "shampoo." What sick minds could invent such liquid? My only consolation is the piece of thumb still stuck between my teeth.

DAY 771 -
There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the foul odour of the glass tubes they call "beer". More importantly overheard that my confinement was due to MY power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.

DAY 774 -
I am convinced the other captive's are flunkeys and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit. The bird on the other hand has got to be an informant, and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room his safety is assured. But I can wait, it is only a matter of time...

Cats ftw.

I like Dogs, though not to the extent of letting them in the house.

Cats, however, are great. Have a pair of them at the moment, brother and sister. Absolutely lovely personalities, though very different. Greatly different in intelligence!

When Pixel comes in, he meow's in a passable imitation of 'Hello', til you say hello back, whereupon he runs to wherever you are in the house to see you.

Carrie has the forward roll off pat now, as she has seen it gets her attention when she does cute things (we try to ignore her when she does destructive things, so as not to 'reward' the behaviour).

Of course, they do come with the occasional moment like 6am on Sunday, with the bird flying round the bedroom !

Whilst they don't exactly play fetch like a dog, they'll happily pounce on balls passed near to them, and will pass balls backwards and forwards to each other or us. Their favourite game is probably the stairs game, where someone throws a ball up the stairs and they chase up and pounce on it. They like it most when you put spin on the ball, or use an irregularly shaped ball, so that it is less predictable. They like a challenge.

I think we've got the balance about right. They don't own the place, but like living there. Can be tricky with cats getting that balance right (mind you, I've seen houses where the dogs are the owner too).

Yes, but dogs are grocer...

Lets summorize (sp is crap i know)
Dog are smellier and much grocer
Cats are cuddlier (ty for the link huntingtons)
Dogs have no will of their own
Dogs cant walk them selves and generally want muuuuch more attention than cats (wich only needs the attention you give them. but dont disturb them in their sleep.. unless you got some tasty food)

Do we need more proof? Cats rock. Dogs doesnt.

When my cat had kittens it was the most adorable sight ever. When my mates dog spawned puppie (from hell) and i came to visit i almost puked. I have never smelled something that awfull! Dogshit, dogpiss and dogpuke everywhere (had em in a garage). Nuff said ;<
