I can't choose, because I love both cats and dogs, they surely are different, but it doesn't stop me from loving any of them less :3

Sometimes I think that cats think we live in THEIR houses, not they live in OURS ?

I love cats, but I think I'm actually a dog person. I just love dogs' attitude towards people, how they enjoy spending their time with us, how they express their love. Cats are colder in this case :)

I love the illustrations that are made, and indeed there is some truth to that, even though the cat is very cute they sometimes suck.

Both!!

Amazingly accurate! I loved it.

I love both, but I'm fundamentally a Cat person, because they so match my own personality. I would be a Cat, if I wasn't human. Dogs are in your face, and slobber all over you. My friend has four Jack Russell's and when I come in, Arnie rushes over to me, and frenziedly rakes my legs with razor sharp claws in excitement, so I have to dress like a bag lady to avoid my clothes being ruined. My Cats ruin my Clothes BECAUSE I WANT THEM TO!
