Cats vs Dogs

[Rodion Romanovich]

Which pet do you prefer? Remember to take all factors into account:
1. cuteness
2. how social they are
3. how intelligent they are
4. what tricks you can teach them
5. what sounds cutest - miao or woof?
6. how good at hunting they are
7. in times of misery/war, which taste better and is most nutritious?
8. in times of boredom, what is more fun to watch - staged fights between cats or dogs?

1. cuteness
Pigs are cuter
2. how social they are
Dogs win this I suppose
3. how intelligent they are
Pigs can play computer games, 'nuff said
4. what tricks you can teach them
Pigs win. Watch Babe
5. what sounds cutest - miao or woof?
Oink.
6. how good at hunting they are
Wild boars can hunt very well.
7. in times of misery/war, which taste better and is most nutritious?
Pigs are yummy and nutritious

8. in times of boredom, what is more fun to watch - staged fights between cats or dogs?
A pigfight wins, it's just so amusing.

What can I say, pigs own 'em both.

Only 3 voters so far... Why do I get the feeling the frontroom community at large isn't taking this topic entirely seriously?

As a wise man once said:

Dogs are hoplites; cats are horse archers.

I'm bi -- I have both kinds of animals. No fish, snakes or hamsters, thank goodness, but cats and dogs live together in Casa Lemur.

I'm so bi I even have a Mac and a PC. (And back when the PC was dual-boot to Fedora Linux, I was Tri.)

I know a certain taxi driver who goes out to feed dozens of cats, dogs and birds at various places in the city every night, feeding each species with different kind of food.

I voted "none of them'.

I prefer other animals...

I had a frog once...

And horses are still the most sublime creature on Earth (next to good people)...

Dogs

[yesdachi]

Stinking, eating, crapping, slobbering, always needing something. None of them!

Come here you cuddly little thing, let me rub your tummy, yes your daddy’s good little baby… hey stop looking at me, get out of here!

We have one cat and two Jack Russell terriers at home. That said:

1. cuteness
No contest. Cats all the way.

2. how social they are
Our cat is just social enough, the dogs are way too social. Also, socialness is overrated anyway.

3. how intelligent they are
Again, no contest. I don't know how their tiny dog brains manage to keep them alive at all.

4. what tricks you can teach them
Cats are above tricks. Besides, our dogs don't know any.

5. what sounds cutest - miao or woof?
Not only does a cat sound cutest - the constant loud yapping whenever the dogs imagine a leaf has fallen the wrong way out in the garden is prone to induce cardiac arrest.

6. how good at hunting they are
Our dogs favourite hunting method consists of running towards the target at full speed while making as much noise as possible. The cat seems to kill on a regular basis, even taking on big rabbits.

7. in times of misery/war, which taste better and is most nutritious?
I imagine cats might taste a bit like rabbit, but I guess it all comes down to how big a dog you have. Mastiffs might provide more nutrition than Jack Russels.

8. in times of boredom, what is more fun to watch - staged fights between cats or dogs?
Our dogs fight daily, but it's only a game. I imagine cat fights would be a whole lot more exciting.


Also, the cat digs himself a little hole to go potty, and covers it up again afterwards. The dog came in one day smelling of the poo in which he had been rolling.

Cats

Dogs are too needy.

[Justiciar]

I swing both ways.

dogs. cats have hairballs.

[Blodrast]

dogs. cats have hairballs.

Cats for teh win !
I have two cats, and I've had cats for 19 years or so (my parents still have an 18 year old one).

The Spartan: not all of them. out of the 5 cats I've had throughout my life, only one has had hairballs, ever. And that's because it's a medium long hair. The short hair ones usually don't have that problem.
