I heart both. I'm allergic to cats though. But that didn't stop me from owning one before. I have a dog now. She's my BFF0

You know, "stupid, needy, obnoxious, noisy and destructive" and "requires training to behave appropriately" because it's not "naturally well-behaved" sounds an awful like kids...
This is very true. Which is why children, like dogs, are not for everyone.
I will go ahead though and make the very glaring point that I'm sure an intelligent guy such as yourself (no intended sarcasm) has already noted:
Children, as obnoxious as they can certainly be, are in no way, ever, comparable to pets of any species, as a pet will never grow to be a contributing member of society. I looooove my cat, but that's all she is. A cat, and a pet. A pet will never become someone's lifelong sweetheart, a mother, father, best friend, and impact thousands of people and help shape the world.
Of course not all children will be upstanding citizens, some will end up bottom-feeding, government-leeching sh!theads, but I'd say the majority turn out ok.

Individuals of both species can either be really cool or really annoying. It largely depends on who owns said animal and how much effort they actually want to put into it.
I'd probably go with cats because I spent a lot of my life with a very cuddly kitty.
I'm only keeping a few plants at the moment because there's a lot in my life I need to sort out first.0 -

Telling someone to go away because they love cats..... makes me want to say to you... 'Go Away'.
I have a black lab- she's my baby. No cats but I love 'em too. The last 2 years have been the first time in my life where I haven't owned a cat.

I will concede to this. There are some great dogs, and some really sh!tty cats out there, and I attribute this largely to the animal's owner.

And to say that a pet could never be a best friend isn't necessarily true - and while they may not impact *thousands* of lives they can certainly impact a few - and thats really their true purpose in life.

Dogs are disgusting. They are stupid, needy, obnoxious, noisy and destructive. And they smell. Any animal that requires training to behave appropriately is not worth owning, IMO. It should be naturally well-behaved.
Plus I prefer to know my animal poops (and then kindly buries it) in ONE specific designated place where I say it's ok, versus having to hunt outside on my pretty lawn for fragrant little *kitten* bombs strewn all over the place. In honesty I've only known ONE dog in my entire life that I liked enough to actually want for my own. So for me, if it's not a cat, it can get out.
Thats so cute .

What's wrong with loving both? Whenever dog lovers complain about cats, I automatically think of this, haha.
