Honestly, we can't really decide which is better. There are some amazing cats, and some amazing dogs. There are also bad cats and dogs. We would have to be talking about a specific cat/dog.
My dogs: Daisy, Tyson.
Tyson's average day: Wake up, go outside, drink a lot and leave it on the ground, watch people trip in it and laugh, lick my paws, take a nap, cuddle master, annoy people, go outside, stare at ducks, go inside, lick my paws, eat loudly, shed, go to sleep in masters twin bed with her, and HOG ALL THE SPACE!
Daisy's average day: Wake up early, say good morning to my stuffed animal, lick everyone, go outside, bark a LOT, eat, bark, shed, bark, watch the cake making show and get scared, play with my toy, chew on Tyson, bark, watch my grandma, sit under the table, bark, go to sleep with my master and Tyson (ON HER TWIN BED!!!).
My cat (we have three, but only one is mine): Layla.
Layla's average day: Wake up, Eat, drink from the sink, sit in my litter box, clean myself, nap on the bed, stare at the fish, chase my kitty friends, sit in the litterbox, eat, drink, meow at people, nap on the bed, shed, go to sleep.
They all poo/pee, and barf the same amount. I honestly like them both, but USUALLY people only base their opinions on their past experiences with them... I don't know if this helps the conversation, but it's just my say.
