This is why dogs are better than cats

Those dogs are the worst kind! Every time I go for a walk, some pissant toy dog runs out of his yard and across the street to bark at me and nip at my heels. Of course, the moment you turn to look at them they run in terror, only to come back as soon as they think the coast is clear. Bigger dogs don't act like this. Cats certainly don't.


Not all toy dog breeds, or all dogs within a given breed are like this, but many are. It's a genetic survival technique. What the small dog lacks in stature, it makes up for with aggressive posturing. Also, sometimes the yappy ones are simply alerting everyone in the area to the fact that "a stranger is here".... again, a survival technique.

That's a myth. Although it's conceivable they might lie on a child for warmth - but that would be very uncomfortable. Moral: keep your pets away from your babies, just in case.


I dunno... Since I've started getting into metal lately, the idea that cats might be evil is starting to become a turn-on!

There was a thing in the paper the other day about a dog attack... The dog (pitbull) somehow got out the back fence of this house and closed its jaws around a little girls head. Luckily some brave person came along and wrestled it off, saving the child, but her face has very bad scaring. The owners of the dog say that their dog attacking is very weird because it was normally a very gentle dog, and their 3 year old daughter often played with it. They had no problems with it having to be destroyed.

So the owners didn't neglect it, and they gave it enough attention... And yet it still almost killed someone?


that's what was REPORTED, and the person could think they are giving it lots of attention when they aren't, bad owners rarely admit to being bad owners. Not saying all dogs are good, there are vicious ones out there but don't just believe the media word for word right away.

Also, as he said, the "dog (pitbull) somehow got out the back fence "... Since the dog "somehow" got out, then the owner was not doing their job.

I read recently that there was a cat that could "predict the death" of people in a nursing home... Hmmmm..maybe the cat was killing them? Where is "The Amazing Randi" when you need him?

Both have good and potential bad points.



What are you talking about?

Stealing breath?


I have had both cats and dogs. And love them both. Poor thing my dog died not long ago.

So now I only have my cats. Funniest things ever, follow me around and always looking to get into trouble.
