Cats
Now I like dogs, but I like cats more.
Really are amazing creatures, and a real lazy persons pet! (Unless you have mine that is a ball of pure energy)

I like all the creatures. They each have their merits.

My dog of 15 years is gone, the cat survived the flood. Down to two tropical fish. We still have a few roaches hanging around the new apartment. 2009 has been a sucky year.

just when they want to eat... - and when they want love, warmth and companionship
other way theyr'e on neighboor roofs and climbing anywhere... - yes, ridding the neighborhood of rats and mice
Dogs are really the thing here..!!! they really care bout you... - of course they do, without you they're finished, but a cat can still hunt and do quite well
guess you never had real friends... jajaja..!!! - well you got me there

The problem is that they decide when they want it... not as the dogs that are always there for sharing...
other way theyr'e on neighboor roofs and climbing anywhere... - yes, ridding the neighborhood of rats and mice
And leaving their disgusting smell that get stock on the roof and walls and never goes away...!!! but it's Ok.. my dogs can reach out the silly cats that want to pass in the back yard, so they really never get to leave their smell in my walls... jejeje...

After pet-sitting for some neighbors, I have decided that cats are way cooler than dogs (I've never had a cat). And it doesn't hurt when they crawl all over you for some attention.

Yes, they are. And they need to be. The most adorable dogs are just plain silly, and absolutely incapable of differentiating their tail from the rest of the nature. My friend once said "why would anyone want to have a dog? It's like wanting to have a retarded person at home." I guess he won't understand. I love both dogs and cats equally. And - just as a dog needs to be silly, cat needs to be lazy. Another friend of mine had a fat cat who would sleep on a sofa. When he wanted to sit there, he would just grab the cat and drop it on the floor - that cat wouldn't wake up even for a second.

Actually dogs are fairly intelligent. They are highly trainable, and understand more than some people think they do. Dogs do have selective hearing though, tell it to go do something and it can't hear you, say dinner and they run from across the house.
