Nope. Cats are emotionless parasites. They aren't social animals by nature, so they don't really form social bonds with people; as far as they are concerned you're just a mobile part of their environment that feeds them.

Dogs, as pack animals, do form social bonds.

Your dog likes you. Your cat just likes your house.


are you seroius?

that's maybe a little bit harsh but i think there is truth in it. i have a cat and i really like cats but i think many people who own a cat see something which isn't there between them and their cat. many believe the cat has a deep relationship to them and don't realize that as example when i'm in their house, get the same attention from their cat if i want to. sure she trusts someone she really knows more than someone she doesn't know but i donÄt believe a cat really cares about you.

if you die, i don't believe a cat will sit on your bed and will mourn your death as long as she knows there will be someone else to feed her. if a dog will see your dead body and will realize you are dead, he will cry a lot. if a dog will see you have problems, he will try to help you.

you know what a cat will do seeing you are dying? i say a cat will not even try to help you most of the time even with her intelligence.

1st paragraph kind of BS, but I would prefer not to go into detail.

 

2nd and 3rd paragraph, honestly when I am sad my cat would notice from across the room and try to cheer me up, while my dog would just keep on laying on the floor.

I like cats more then dogs. But I like both them a lot. Pretty much like all animals :).

Also it depends on the dog/cat of course. Most people who have cats have regular domestic cats, while people with dogs could have chihuaua or great pyrenees etc.
