I think it depends on your stance towards authoritarianism. Dogs follow commands, cats do not.
Cats follow rules. Your mistake is believing you are in charge.
Cats can absolutely follow commands. Tell your cat “watch out” as you sit near them for a week. Then just say it one day and watch as they get up.
It’s just a different learning and motivation system than dogs.
Lesbians famously have several dogs, what?
Instructions unclear (13 cats).

The inability to know the difference between “one” and “on”.
I prefer neither and don’t like pets at all… Straight white guy.
Anon is an odiot.
I prefer Cats
What if you’re a guy that prefers dogs but somehow ended up with a plethora of cats since your last dog died a few years back from cancer?
Am I gay or a closeted straight guy now?
You’ve got the big sad and don’t want to go through the pain again
That’s probably not far from the truth… I still have her favorite toys on a shelf in my living room.
I think you might be traumatized
I think its called toxoplasmosis
What’s going on here?
Stereotyping and overgeneralisation!
Hush now, I’m busy psychoanalysing people for their choice in pets.
Oh, right. My mum has a budgie and I keep an ant colony?
Owning a dog is the intersection between thinking dogs are the best, and actually having the time, energy and headspace to look after one.
If dogs looked after themselves like cats do, I’d be inclined. But then they wouldn’t be dogs, I suppose.
Fair enough!
Dogs are still awesome!
This exactly! Cats don’t need to go for walks or be let out at regular intervals. You can even leave them home without a sitter for a week or so if you have automatic litter box and feed set up. (I have cameras and a neighbor who is available for emergencies). Cats are so low maintenance, but also I don’t do well with dogs smothering tendencies.
Cats are awesome. I love dogs too but I travel for work and have a very small house so I can’t really have a dog. But the range of cat personalities is so wide, I’ve had four girls in my life so far that are deceased and currently have four boys. Every single one is so different, I love it.
I like my dog’s energy because she motivates me to move at least a little bit each day. Of course I’m not gonna get a husky because no amount of motivation would let me keep up with them, but a good energy match in a dog is heaven to me.
I like cats too, but I feel like I just don’t “get” them as intuitively.
Huskies are weird because while they require a ton of interaction, during the time in between they act very catlike and just kinda fuck off and do their own thing.
Dogs are so loving and in my case have always been obedient, but the first two years they behave like a dinosaur on meth. And then cats are so calm but they just ignore me except for when they want food.
Do you try to play with your cats? If you don’t try to need any of their needs other than food, water, and litter, why would they care about you beyond that? I have 3 cats and a rescue kitten I’m fostering, and all 4 of them seek me and my wife out for attention every single day. Play with your cats and respect their boundaries, and they will come to you for their emotional needs as well.
I have two cats and one of them is motivated exclusively by food and the opportunity to rip cardboard boxes apart and spread to the contents over the floor. He’s not interested in anything else.
The other one is perfectly friendly.
Sometimes you just have to have the right kind of cat.
If you have to spend time playing with it, then what’s the advantage of having a cat over a dog?

Oh man, the first dog I ever got for myself was a rescue at around 2 years old so we didn’t get much of a puppy phase. I was thinking “I remember my parents’ dogs chewing things up for years before they settled down, I guess it just seemed that way because I was young.”
Then we got a six month old rescue and holy shit, he’s a menace. A very cute and sweet one, luckily for him, but also smart, stubborn, and playful, which is dangerous combo. Thankfully he’s improved a lot over the past year or so and we’ve learned how to not give him attention when he’s being bad. It’s really satisfying to see him learn and grow and start to chill out, but by God I don’t know if I’ll ever get another puppy. Still love him to bits, though. Great napping buddy.
we all just like animals, and none of us have the real estate for dogs anymore
Guess I’m not a straight man… Hey honey…
I thought I was a straight male, but clearly the science has spoken. Hey honey…
Hi
It’s supposed to be heeeyyyyy
No, its supposed to be Caaaarrrrrrrrrlllllllll
No, is supposed to be Coooooorrrlll
But that kills people.
On a good day. 😈
Is this a reference so something, or did you just admit to having a secret crush on Carl?
Gay, but prefer dogs. Cats are boring by comparison.
Are you sure you’re gay? The op clearly states you should love cats, and science doesnt lie now does it
My worldview’s in shambles
You’re no longer allowed to listen to beyoncé
We have 2 snakes. But i call my ( cornsnake ) sometimes my puppy. My partner his snake ( hognose ) we lovingly call the kitten.
So from now on i am a male and he is female. Got it. Good to find these kind off rules. Otherwise we would suffer in unknowing and make mistakes against statistics. ;)
I know it stresses them out but god damn do I love seeing hognoses playing dead. They’re so dramatic!
What happened to white women fuckin’ their dogs?
That used to be a thing among that list, so you’d think they end up on the “prefers dogs” part.
Someone spending too much time on r34 sites…
What
I didn’t make that up, for a long time i saw loads of claims and insinuationz that all white women fuck their dogs.
Not me who thinks that, but those chronically online, disconnected from the real world people did.
Yooo. My friend, step back and take a look.
I just assumed since this is 4chan shit, the breeding ground of disconnected and chronically online mentally unstable people ya’ll would recognize it as it’s you where it comes from.
But apparently not, so i’m gone. I’m not one of you even though you’re assuming i am.
That’s the kind of claim that should never be taken seriously and you’re not doing anyone any favours by spreading it
