In the annals of pet ownership, two species reign supreme – Dog vs. Cat. They’ve become integral parts of our lives, and each brings a distinct range of traits and characteristics. Heralded as “man’s best friend,” dogs are known for their loyalty, playfulness, and ability to form strong bonds with their owners. Cats, while also deeply attached to their human companions, showcase independence. They are agile, graceful, and often mysterious, keeping their owners constantly intrigued. The choice between a dog and a cat often depends on personal preference and lifestyle. Let’s explore the unique qualities of these beloved companions in this article.

LOL...”Just say no to cuy though!”

That was the reason I asked DallasBiff. He posted a great article about Cuy in Peru a few days ago that the mods deleted wtih a snotty “Taking ou the trash.”

My son’s girlfriend is Peruvian and they are going to Peru in September.

This is hilarious, and true. For some cats.

My two cats, Mr. Inky and Admiral Halsey are different! Of course, Admiral Halsey, when he can't attack mainland Japan, will settle for my hand!

Okay. He didn't eat my hand, he was just pretending he was going to, and I got him in mid-pretend! Here are the two of them at rest:

I enjoy them both. They are brothers from the same litter, and are quite dog-like. But...still cats!

Dogs are genuinely man's best friend because they are pack animals and naturally want to do what their pack leader or higher ranking pack member human wants to do. Properly socialized and trained dogs regard even humans they do not know as higher ranking pack members. Yet cats can get also strongly attached to their owners and want to be with them.

After the next door neighbor died suddenly, out of respect for him and for pity sake, my brother and I put food out for his homeless and skittish black and white tuxedo pattern male cat. After a year, the cat now lives inside, spoiled, sweet-tempered, and devoted to me especially since I do most of his feeding. Yet every evening, the cat insists on going outside to sit in our driveway looking at the backyard of the house next door for an hour or more, hoping to see that his former owner has come home.

Who knew? Enduring love and loyalty from a cat.

Had another (walk on) cat that dropped a live mouse on my sleeping face in the middle of the night. He was incredulous when I immediately grabbed it and spiked on the concrete floor.

I guess the congregation was lucky that cat wasn’t licking his butt.
