Howdy!.

My researches are always trivial.
Not because of a lack of effort, but because of a lack of brains.
This one is about how you relate to either animal.
Even if you don't own either at the moment.
If you have it right now, by all means, let us know.
I'm a dog person. My wife is a cat person.
We have two dogs and a cat. Dogs: Whiskey and Lola. Cat: Lilly.
What are you?.

Cat person all the way.

I want to be Murphy (he's our cat). He's always chilled out, sauntering around with this cool expression, sleeping by me. He's big and puffy and black. I wish I could be that relaxed! lol

I LOVE dogs! Had several growing up and have one now. He's a cockapoo and his name is Samson. I got him when my last child left the nest. I consider him my 4th child and he is spoiled rotten.

I like them both but have only had cats. I do love hanging out with friends' dog though. Maybe if I had some outdoor space a dog might be a more realistic option.

p.s. shatteredsanity, you made me smile when you said meow!

I like dogs.
Though I appreciate cats and their carnivorousness. I can relate.

Dogs! We have a black miniature schnauzer who's name is Bella. She is spoiled rotten and thinks she's a person.

I'm extremely allergic to cats. If I wasn't I would probably have a cat too. RU a Cat or Dog Person.

I love both cats and dogs. They're just different. I've had cats most of my life but can't have them anymore because my son-in-law, with whom I live, is severely allergic to them. But we do have several dogs and he's fine with them. I have a sweet Pug mix and my son and SIL have Pomeranians.

I'm a cat person just because I can't have dogs In my condo complex. But if I could, oh boy. I sometimes watch my aunts little terroir and the neighbors *****. I tell them it's temporary and mind their business lol. I assure them I've talked to management (white lie lol). Growing up I had a furry tiny dog that protected me. He died. I also had a Labrador that died of cancer. But the only reason I have two cats is because I have no other choice.

A temperamental boy cat named Claudio (lead singer of a fav band) and a sweet little girl named Tigger. I also have a cockatoo and a bearded dragon. I love my pets.
Thanks for this!

I had a dog just like that named chivas regal (after the liquor, nice mom and dad lol). He was so mean to other pets and strangers but protected me when my brother would pick on me. He was very protective.

I like cats but I am deathly allergic to them so I can't be around them. I like their personalities though.

I LOVE dogs. We have two and I could easily turn into that crazy dog lady, but I stay at two. We have a Scottish terrier and a Chorkie (Yorkie/Chihuahua mix).
Thanks for this!

I dig abstract algebra. Calculus integral and differential are a walk in the park.
What I can't figure out is the result of my research.
No idea how's ahead. IDK, everything is hard to figure out.
I didn't calculate the variables, like "I like both." "I'm allegic to eiher or none". etc.

I need help. ICARE!!!!!!... where are you!!!!!.
Or maybe more participants. Maybe I called Icare too soon?.

I love both and have had both, but am a die-hard cat person. I love them and have been consumed with all things "cat" since I was a little girl. My cats have long, elaborate names. I had a Corgi for years and hope to have another one some day, but I will always, always be surrounded by kitties.

I'm an animal lover in general. I'm highly allergic to cats but have rescued several over the years. Currently we have 3 dogs. A German sheaperd named Kida, a cockapoo named Aimee and a cockapoo named Obi but we call him doobie. My parents bred and raised Greats Daines and I've had dogs my whole life.

My dogs are my protectors.....they are the best security you can have. Dogs have higher levels of oxytocin (the love hormone) than humans have. This means they love you more than a human is capable of loving. Cats have practically none. They barely even like you. Lol. But cats are so sweet, clean and fun. It all depends on what you are looking for in a pet.
