Which do you prefer cat or dog & why?

Dog, my dog has so much more personality, and he wants to be with me constantly. I don't mind the extra expense at all. ☺

I love both, but I'm way more a dog person. Relationship with dogs is more interactive, I want to share my happiness and receive the happiness of a dog.
Cats are ok, but usually more independent, they don't care a lot of what you do or say.

Let me tell you something about cats! If you look after them well without all that silly pampering that most do, they are one of the most demanding beings with whom you can share your home! Heaven help anyone who gives them a choice of food! Once they know there's a choice...you're doomed!! Having said that ...and, ohh, that's just about one percent of their pickiness...cats are absolutely brilliant! I love dogs, too and I think they don't suffer so much with that ridiculous coddling that cats receive. Half these dim-wits who have cats screw them up by having them de-clawed or they put little nail coverings on them - retards!!

I've had both but prefer dogs. I find cats far pickier than dogs - and I prefer a dog's easy and open affection to courting a cat 24/7. Cats are fun, too, though.

I love both and I've had both. If I could have only one, I think it would be a dog but not entirely sure. It would be a hard decision to make.

Cats, because dogs are high maintenance.

cats are more tender but there is more met on a dog!

picky? What have you got, some little yapper?

Have both, prefer cats. They aren’t as loud as dogs.

I love cats. They are my brethren.

Dogs. Dogs are way better than cats.

I’d get another cat for the same reasons. I don’t think I’d get a dog unless I moved into a house with a yard.
