Cats v.s. Dogs

by Savannah W.

Which is better, cats or dogs?  The battle between who is better is debatable.  But, I want to break up that fight for the best and figure out which may be better.  In my opinion, cats and kittens are better than dogs and puppies but, that's just my opinion.  But it depends on the person's personality; if you're a cat person or a dog person.  But, if you are both a cat person and a dog person and you can't decide, I will help you!!  First things first, you need to know what having a cat or kitten is like and you need to know what having a dog or puppy is like. I have 4 kittens, 1 cat, and 1 dog.  So, I know what it is like to have and own dogs and cats.  It also depends on the animal’s personality. For example, I had a cat who acted like a dog.He was also really funny so we loved having him but, he ran away so now we have a lazy cat named Lacy.  (We should have named her lazy!!) And she does nothing and we always talk about if Lacy could talk she would say “Feed me human or I will make you have to call the ambulance!”  So, before you get any type of pet, not just cats or dogs, spend some time with the animal then you know what it likes and you know if it is the right personality type for you. Now, here is some facts about cats and dogs. Cats are pretty easy to take care of because they clean themselves and don’t shed as much hair as dogs. Some cats (not all cats) are cuddly and are willing to sleep on or with you. But dogs can be cuddly but not as much as some cats and kittens. The main problem with cats and kittens is THE POOP STINKS!!!!! I hate cleaning out the litter box because the stuff in it is disgusting. So if you hate having to clean out the litter box and if you hate awful smells you may not want a cat or kitten. Unless you train the cat to use the toilet then it shouldn’t be as bad.  Now, dogs, however, are no better because they just poop on the ground and leave you to take it and it smells pretty bad too!!!  Kittens, cats, dogs, and puppies are all playful and cute. Puppies and kittens will eat and get into anything and everything, unless the kitten or puppy has been trained.   Kittens and cats are WAY WAY WAY harder to train!!!  I still am having trouble training our kittens and it seems like I am making no progress at all and I’ve been training them for a month or two now!!  Cats won’t scare away people or animals by barking like dogs.   Instead cats will prefer to chill out and not care about it. They might meow but most cats probably won’t. Kittens will play with whatever they want to whenever they want to. They are way more likely to meow at things. So kittens probably won’t be the best choice for peace and quiet. The truth to who is better, …………… ;NEITHER!!! It depends on your opinion and perrrrrsonality!!!!! So choose the one that fits you best!!

Look at that cute face that just wants to play and cuddle!!!!!!!

And look at that baby puppy who wants to lick your face and chase you!!!!!!!
