Cat people and dog people

 

Early on growing up we had mostly dogs.  An occasional cat but mostly canines.  My folks picked up a stray mutt on a street corner once.  Had Mickey for a while.  Had a couple of German Shepherds.  Beautiful animal, good for protection but don't seem to live that long.  Sometimes they have problems with the hind legs.  Then for whatever reason we shifted totally to felines.  They're low maintenance compared to dogs.  For the most part you don't have to housebreak them unless they have some type of emotional issues going on.  You don't have to walk them three times a day even in Arctic conditions.  They sleep much of the time and as a bonus help control the rodent population.  They're also cleaner than dogs.  We had a dog once and every now and then we'd put him in the car and drove to a wooded area.  If there was a dead animal around he liked to roll around in that. A cat would never do that.  Am I biased?  Maybe.  Dog may be man's best friend but but a cat ain't that much work.

It's a cat thing.
