Is it normal to wonder why dog owners are more likeable comp. to crazy cat ppl?

It's funny that you call people that own cats "crazy cat people" when you are judging people and determining their worth by the pets they choose. Sounds pretty crazy to me!

I have 2 dogs and 2 cats. Love all 4 of them. Which catagory fits that? Haha!

That is so unfair. How the freak does PMSing have to do with owning a cat. Try having blood gushing out of you every month and crippling pain and see how you go crazy. Cat owners have been proven to be more shy, but also more artistic, compassionate and intellectual. And no, I don't own a cat.

Perhaps you are right. I have three kitties. I prefer their idividual nature-traits. Though, in saying that my cats all play fetch. They are intelligent creatures, I don't so much value obedience in an animal. I'd rather let them be themselves. Hmm, it seems that dogs are limited in terms of *personality*...

The comparison to lawn gnomes is just sinister. I have never encountered an endearing one yet! Yeuch!!

To Randomjelly,

I was at the pet store a couple of weeks ago and the ASPCA had a few cats for sale and there was a nice kitty that on each front leg was an extra toe. They called him Thumbs. What do you think? A new beginning for the new world order?

Bigeyedfish, thank you. I agree, cats and dogs are equally awesome.

guys calm down! dogs and cats are both amazing! no need to pick favorites! and owners - dog and cat owners - there is NO superior one!

Some dogs scare me shitless. I personally prefer cats, because they're more indepdendant creatures

What I challenge is that dogs giving unconditional love is better than cats, whose love you have to EARN. This applies to humans too - unconditional love, selflessness and charity all suck balls, in my opinion.

Oh, and I disagree that dogs are more intelligent - the wiki on cat intelligence makes for interesting reading.

because most dog owners are intolerant assholes and judge everyone who has a different opinion, labeling them as ''crazy'' simply because they don't understand them. dog owners are not more likeable, once again that's just their ego which is pumped up by having a servile dog instead of real friends.

Dogs + humans = codependency
Cats + humans = genuine relationship
Dog people need to be greeted at the door, they need to know someone is waiting for them. Dogs are so stupid, they hang on our every word, plus they chew and slobber on anything and anyone.

Cats are genius :)

No, you are LOCO!
Cats are genius
Dogs are stupid they hang to our every word, people who choose them just need a security blanket.

I agree entieely, i could never marry someone who greatly preferred cats and didn't like dogs, I think that somehow, it says something about their personality lol

Dogs are not smarter than cats..
Cats can actually look after themselves wtf

I have met equally nutty dog and cat owners, it's just one of those things - where you get hobbies you get nutty fanatics. I honestly cant believe that people on here have to justify their arguments by slating a species. Some people like dogs, some people like cats, some people like both, deal with it! If you don't like cats or dogs for whatever personal reasons don't try and justify it by slating the species just because one human prefers type a over type b. The bottom line, all animals are better than the human race, at least they don't waste their time arguing over pathetic random crap. And that is my opinion!!

i have dogs and a cat and they are too different to compare. but it has been proven that dogs are smarter than cats. just because an animal can kill to survive, that doesnt make it smarter. they are actually training dogs to sniff out cancer in a person. can you teach something like that to a cat? i love all animals and generally the more social an animal is, the smarter it is. that is just how nature is.
i dont have a problem with people who think one is better than the other but i do have a problem with someone hating an animal and abusing an animal. there is just no need for it and it just shows how weak that person is to have to resort to that kind of horrid behaviour.

Cats realease some kind of chemical that causes you to go crazy lol. I learned that in Biology today(: I happen to be a dog person just because I like to cuddle and pet and I'm just a very loving, touching person, so dogs suit me better. I still like cats though cause I like all animals. Saying dog people are "superior" to cat people is a bit much though.

This is the greatest story IIN ask ever on this site. So true, but the crazy cat nuts will stuff the ballot box in their favor.

While dog owners are out and about enjoying live with their dogs, cat owners sit at home all day with their pathetic and mentally retarded cats on their laps doing nothing at all.

What a life.

Are any of you catlovers reading your posts? You do sound crazy. You flocked to this post in a heartbeat..

Cats tend to shit in the house and are to prissy. Dogs are more fun to have and friendlier. Cats are disgusting and minions of the devil. Dog is God backwards!

I don't think this site is made for that kind of questions, go away, stay away, die please...

Well my dog is very independent and rarely greets me at the door, mostly because she's too lazy to get off the couch. In my opinion dogs are waaay better Than cats and more lovable and enjoyable.

I like dogs and cats but prefer dogs. Id rather use a popper scooper to clean up shit on the outside, then smell a damn litter box. Depending on the pet in general they all have different personalities. But I like a pet that is more active and doesn't give me the evil eye for no reason.

Hahaha randomjelly!
I swear I didn't tell!

Wtf 2010? Shit. My time traveling secret is out.

"I" am a cat.

^^I'm pretty sure that her post was meant to be humorous....

Tori, they may not be opposable now but wait until 2010.

Aussiewolf: how can the will of a dog to help you mean it is more inteligent than a cat who doesn't care? I think the fact that cats CHOOSE to do their things on their own makes them more inteligent. Dogs need leaders to order them to do things. Then again i love dogs, particularly for their dependance

"It's a well known fact that dog owners are simply superior human beings compared to cat owners."

Opinion =/= fact... I would like to see your research and proof of this statement before you state it as fact.

Cats are evil geniuses... And if they had opposable thumbs they would rule the world.

I have both :0/

Thank you dappled! You're sweet! :)

I can understand you prefer dogs to cat however saying dog ppl are superior to cat ppl is a little too much. I love both cats and dogs, each has its own characteristics. Cats are more independant as dogs need constant attention, it depends of one's lifestyle. Many people buy dogs and dont take care of them properly, cats only need to be fed.

I agree with wigsplits.. A dog attacked me one day and I told the owner that he should keep his dog on lead and he said, its alright, it's plqying with you... What the fuck, why dog owners think that their dogs are bloody wild end of the day

I don't know....I've had problems with both cat and dog owners, more with dog owners. For the most part, the cat people kept their cats to themselves. The dog owners on the other hand, their dogs constantly bothered me.

The barking, the people who just let their dogs run around loose-they get into the trash, they dig up plants, chase and sometimes kill my chickens, shit all over my yard and not to mention some of the dogs are big and might be dangerous. But try to tell a dog owner to shut his dog up or keep it in his own yard and they go ballistic. I don't care what kinds of pets anyone has as long as they take care of it and keep it to themselves.

In many respect I agree with you, you're gonna get a lot of complaining cat people though.
They would say very much the same thing though: dogs are too rambunctious and busy, cats are subtle and calm.

It's a view, stand by yours, repect those of others. I'm both a dog and cat person, however I lead a busy, active life, so a dog would be my first choice (maybe a late night movie in bed with the cat). :)

Tori: those thumbs are not opposable. In fact, they make the kitten a little more clumsy. Lol, however.

Not sure if that crazy commentwas directed at me, but let me say it again. I am not a cat person. I just get pissed off at stereotypes. Do you think it's when ignorant people judge others on the PET they have? Come on, people, get a life

Yeah, you're wrong.
