    I'm a cat person. Don't like dogs,am afraid of them. Dunno why,always have been.

    Woof woof!


    Cats are little furbags. Give me a loyal hound any day!

    where's the both option?!

    i liked dogs all my life, then i warmed to the neighbours cat.

    i have a cat now, love him, he's a poncey bastard.

    so.. both.

    Oh, good point, probably should have put a both option in really.

    Although which animal do you prefer as a pet?

    Cats are interesting but evil.

    Dogs obviously, not all dogs though, not those horrible ****ty mongrol terriers that bite and nip at your ankles, they should be put down along with their owners.

    The majority of dogs are nice though.

    Dog!
    Because they are loyal and fun. I think that they look hilarious when they get really excited at something like the beach, and run around like a mad yoke.:D

    However, I strongly dislike small, yappy little things that try and bite me when I go for walks.

    And you could spend hours petting a cat and it would get up, stretch, look at you in disdain and walk away.:mad:

    2 other pets I really want to get are a rabbit and a pygmy hedgehog....Don't know where my fascination with them came from, but I think they're cool.

    You're obviously not cooking them right!

    I have both and love both.

    People always think I'm a cat person because I have had a good few cats. However, if for some reason I was forced to choose between cats and dogs for the rest of my life I would have to choose dogs. I hate living without a dog.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,814 ✭✭✭Nemanja91


    Both, had a few dogs, last one died almost a year ago from old age and a heart problem, was supposed to get one of my uncles kittens but his dog killed it when he was playing with it, other option is a snake which I will hopefully be getting one once I have my own place.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭anniehoo


    Im Bi..love them both :D the little hairy fur balls that they are.

    Oh my god, Damn you!! I just had to go and bloody google pygmy hedgehogs didnt I.. :D I want one!! Ive always loved hedgehogs, but now I found out there are even smaller ones Im soon going to get obsessed! :o:o Rabbits by the way are gorgeous pets, used to have them when I was younger and Im determined to have some again when I get my own place :) You should definately get one (or two ;))

    I have 2 cats, so I must vote for cats.

    I like dogs, but I just cannot imagine having to bag up warm poop when you walk a dog. With cats, you simply change the box.

    Plus, a cat won't hump your leg!

    hehe me either ..i couldnt vote for just one or the other. I feckin adore both of them...for different reasons. I had an amazing dog for 14 yrs (put to sleep in Jan), have a sound fella of a cat now. Cant in a million years compare the 2..Bi-lover! What can i say :D

    I love the complete love you get from a dog,their smell, little looks, excited faces, moods...but equally as love the "couldnt care less" but secretly do-care attitude of cats. Ah..deadly little things both of them!

    For balance in life, you need a cat to ignore you and a dog to adore you.

    Dog!

    2 other pets I really want to get are a rabbit and a pygmy hedgehog....Don't know where my fascination with them came from, but I think they're cool.

    Jus looked them hedgehog things up and cant decide if theyre cute or creepy :confused:

    Anyway Im definately a dog person.

    Have had my dog for the past eleven years, n I love her, shes like a wee fluffy person :D

    Couldnt imagine ever not having a dog.
    Kittens are cute, but they grow up to be evil little bastards :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,433 ✭✭✭✭Mr Benevolent


    Both.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,731 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    Dogs are good, cats are also good...but better. There's no both option so I chose cats:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,902 ✭✭✭johndoe99


    i have a 16 year old cat, my mother got 2 dogs last year, and they are scared sh**less of the cat. They'll bark and run after other cats, but as soon as my cat enters the room they cower in the corner, probably all the wallops she gives them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 62 ✭✭Niche market


    I would have to say dogs... simply because my wee doggy is just gawrgous :D and is well cuter then any oul cat! :p

    And also i did get scratched by a cat when younger, which threw me right off! :mad:

    I still would pet the odd pussy though...if required too ;)

    Love dogs, hate cats with a passion no soul and a evil stare:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,264 ✭✭✭Pretty_Pistol


    Prefer cats. Dogs are far too needy.

    Although my cat has F all loyalty!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    I prefer cats, they can actually be quite friendly and sociable contrary to popular belief.
