Your poll is missing some choices both or neither. I love all animals I have 3 cats 2 ferrets 2 dogs 4 rabbits and 5 chickens and 4 ducks. Cats are interesting because they seem to have a sassy attitude. Dogs loyalty and willingness to please is also a great attribute.

Cats have more personality..and easier to take care of than dogs

I am an animal person. I had dogs growing up and cats as an adult. Now I have both from different rescue shelters. My best friends have a horse ranch also with dogs and cats, that I have often worked on.

Dogs. No litter box in the house needed

Doggies don't make my throat swell up and my eyes and nose run simultaneously. Plus they're cute

Dogs as a companion but I like most creatures. my fave animal is the elephant but I can't keep one of those. I do want to rescue a young bitch soon.I love my fish too

All cats know me by name

I like that the cats are more independent and not so "needy" as dogs are. Also they can purr.

Dogs require a great deal of tiem and attetnion. If you dont' have the time to give to the dog, then I dont' think you shoudl have one. An animal isn't a toy you can put aside until you want to play with it.

By contrast a cat wont' let you ignore it. They will TAKE the time and atention they need.

As the sayign goes, "Dogs have masters. Cats have staff."

I’m cat because dogs are a little too affectionate and they are not independent like cats are. Dogs tend to get on my nerves. Too much licking. If they are chill dogs. Then yes, I like them. But otherwise, no.

I love all animals, even the ones who most people think aren't so cute, like snakes, opossums, and rats. None of them have ever done anything to fuck up the planet.

Cat person. Because cats are better than dogs.

I prefer dogs, they are usually easier to get along with. Princess Gaia (cat) would suddenly get tired of being petted and you’d be bleeding. Just no.

All animals! But do favor doggies! Have 7 and 3 cats ????

Both,

Both. Also, almost any other critter.

I can relate to the "I'm no ones cat but my own" attitude

Need 3rd choice-both

I like them both, but I prefer dogs because cats are assholes.

I like them both. Had a Yorkie but came home one day and my future ex wife of 36 years had moved out and took my dog, that was a year and a half ago and I still miss the dog. I asked her to watch my cat for a week when I moved recently and it got into some anti freeze and died, I don't like to think she did it on purpose.

Dogs mainly because they mind better, and potty outside.

I like cats but am allergic to them. I've been a dog person since childhood.

I find cats to be far too independent to be perceived as loving as much as dogs. Though, I've known some cats who loved me and I them in return. Ideally, I like having a dog and a cat as a pair, though, sadly the cat will outlive the dog and will probably know another dog.

I actually love both, dogs and cats, and especially the dogs and cats that get along.

I love the walks
