Neither. I own a house to keep animals out. My favorite animal is veal.
Dog 100%. Being deathly allergic to cats helps.
We have Siberians. Hypoallergenic, but you have to take out a loan to buy one.
Along with the cats, we have a Husky. The oldest boy got him from a breeder in NY and paid about $500.
Brown fur, blue eyes, and steals my easy chair when he gets tired of imitating a rug at your feet.

I also don’t like them enough to bother or pay that much.
Just did a day trip to Tijuana and Rosarito Beach. I am now wondering what was in those street carne asada tacos. Was it dog or cat that was so tasty?
When I retire, if I ever retire, I’ll breed Labrador Retrievers. That to me is heaven on earth. Surrounded by puppies… 😊
Do dogs, pets make it to heaven? I think so.
I ask, with frequency. I don’t see why not.
Dogs and cats probably ask each other the same thing.
So that presupposes that animals are incapable of sin.
That’s my Happy Thought for the day.
They are innocent.
As the story goes, a missionary was in the process of converting Inuit-types to Christianity when the convo turned to the subject of heaven. “Do caribou go to heaven?”, asked one native.
The padre replied “No” and promptly lost that potential flock.
Yes, emphatically, Fido and Fluffy will meet us at the Pearly Gates. I miss mine.
All Dogs Go To Heaven.
All dogs go to heaven.
Happiness is… 😊

Get these false dilemmas outta here! Next you’ll be asking whether someone is into boobs OR butts OR legs. Both or all should be valid choices.
Except feet. The equivalent of feet would have to be a pet iguana or opossum or something.
A shoe fetish is kinky.
A foot fetish is perverted.
cat
although, I’m pet-free now, and plan to stay so
pets aren’t cheap, but a $1 kitten calendar is
Cat man.
Always have been, always will be. Their behaviors and style match my introverted personality and I enjoy the fact they’re still socialized predators with a fondness for humans. Nothing flies or crawls in our house that doesn’t eventually get caught. Cats will come, and cats will go. As pets age and pass on we miss them, but the true lover of animals will always find a place for them in their lives – and sometimes, even in death. I’ve had my animals cremated and their remains stay with me. I’m weird like that, because for me, loyalty and good friendship is to the end of days and beyond death – whether you’re an animal pet or the rare human I tolerate.
One of my favorite quotes in life comes from cat owner Robert Heinlein. He was very wise to the ways of things like women and cats. He said they both will do as they please and men just have to get used to it if they decide to live with them. The best quote was this one, though.
“You can judge (the character of) a man by the way he treats a cat.” Parentheses are mine.
For some fun humor, especially regarding cats, go find Matthew Inman’s website ~theoatmeal.com~
Guaranteed, you’ll literally laugh out loud.
love ’em both, but never had a dog shit on my pillow when it was pissed off
I never had a cat roll in horseshit then get in the truck for the ride home. I love them both, too.
I knew a guy with a bit of acreage who had two Great Pyrenees. He took them camping and they would NOT go #2 on a leash. After a few days on the drive home the dogs exploded in the car.
If I understand a recent Bloomberg article correctly, pets can be a very important source of protein in a pinch.
That professor-lady who wrote that piece for B’berg will NOT be going to heaven: no reptiles ever do.
Dog. Period. For thousands of reasons.
I go absolutely crazy over puppies. 💛💛💛
That’s a cute one!
Can’t you just imagine kissing his little face all over and smelling his sweet puppy breath??
So cute.
I have read on TBP that cat’s are the devil’s spawn and agree 100%. I love dogs, but currently do not have one as the wife will not allow animals, other than me, in the house. I was raised with the neighbor’s black lab who was more mine than anyone else’s. His given name was Charcoal, but we called him Nigger and he was the best dog ever.
We are a cat house – with 13 cats… and a neighbor cat that hangs out back most of the time as of late. We had a dog as well, she passed a couple years ago – and she was an incredible pup, cause its tough being a dog in a cat house, and she did it all too well. RIP sweet Pris
Cant buy dogs again after the last two passed and we have five cats ad well as a nature preserve for birds in the front yard. Cardinals, Bluejays, buntings, woodpeckers and doves.
Names redacted for privacy. Not gonna get me that easy you fucken fed snoops. Do some real work.
Dog family. Always have been even before we were together (40+years). Mostly Poodles and Rhodesian Ridgebacks (yes, at the same time) and an Afghan Hound rescue once. Called him my Taliban dog. Current canine residents are:
Miniature Poodle “Cash” 9 y/o/m
Standard Poodle “Lucy Petunia” 4 y/o/f
Rhodesian Ridgeback (#4) “Eli” (Whitney) 2 y/o/m
Both favorites.
Dogs!! We’re on our 4th dog who’s 11 yrs old, saved her at the rescue shelter as a new born pup of a litter of 9. Little black terrier mutt. M-i-L was an Aussy and came up with the name of Kari, meaning “little smoke” in the Aboriginal language. She will try and turn anything I do into a game. With terriers “it’s all about the fun”!!
Just lost my 12-year old tabby in the last month. GF is threatening to come down to stay and bring a puppy with her.
Always had dogs as a kid and am looking forward to it. Prolly replace ‘Puddy’ with a new kitten.
I love ’em both and don’t wish to be without.
I have been both, now I’m neither and lovin it.
This was a damn fine post in April of 2019.
If you missed it, for whatever reason, I think you’ll love it.
If it reads familiar, then keep going, because it’s worth the revisit.
It took some time to find it, but I’ll tip my hat to Hardscrabble for this one. Again.
Check out who was commenting back then, too. Lots of good personal “Can Relates”
~Cheers.
Depends on how hungry I get in the future. 🙂
What do you call a Vietnamese family with two dogs? Ranchers.
What do you call a Vietnamese family with three dogs? Cattle Barons.
Dark- Tough crowd tonight… no sense of humor. Thanks for the laugh. 🙂
I gotcha covered, BL.
AA- All of these famine articles today, just thought it was relevant to today’s theme. Like Bartles & James…..thanks for your support.
Dogs are the Best.
I am not much for cats.
Really? Huh- hadn’t noticed.
Hurts like Fucking Burning Hell to lose a pet, but we wouldn’t trade the memories for anything.
Tell me I’m wrong.
Humans live longer than cats or dogs.
The Universe arranged it that way so we can have more of them in our lives.
Up until six years ago, cat. Now, dog. Doubt that I will change back. I will never own either.
I’m a plants person. They don’t piss, puke, shit or shed in the house and they don’t wake you up in the morning. The upkeep is near zero.
Cats are only useful as dog food.
Well, they’re also useful for excuses.
Mine walks on my keyboard at night and inadvertently orders ammo and tactical gear.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Meow.
