    dogs are brilliant, they will sit and watch you eat and then enjoy the bit you give them at the end before their own dinner. cats on the other hand would just rob rather than wait
    the only good thing for a cat is a pillow case, bricks and the nearest canal/river

    I caught a cat trying to get in to my dustbin last night. Scavenging, if you will. I threw things at it until it went away. I wasn't actually aiming for it, but I didn't tell the cat that.

    Dogs > All other pets. Except maybe a monkey butler.

    There's a cat crying at night for the last few nights.

    Sounds like a new born infant left outside

    I think if you took a closer look you'd see the cat getting a bone of her own.Cats make a terrible noise when their rydin.

    Nope, because they have no grip with their paws, If they did there would be a whole load of **** going on all over the place

    Cats work on thought transference and don't need to talk. When my cat looks at me, I hear "fuck you, where's me dinner" in my head.:(

    Maybe you should talk to a professional about this attitude to a defenceless animal.

    The Cat's Diary


    Day 983 of my captivity.

    My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.

    They dine l avishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash
    or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations
    perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my
    strength.

    The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an Attempt to
    disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse
    and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike
    fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities.
    However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little
    hunter" I am. Bastards!

    There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed
    in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear
    the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to
    the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to
    my advanta ge.

    Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my
    tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this
    again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.

    I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and Snitches.
    The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to
    be more than willing to return. He is obviously Retarded.

    The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicate with the Guards
    regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have
    arranged protective custody for him in an Elevated Cell, so he is safe.

    For now.

    If there was re-incarnation, a dog would be my first choice. They have the way to live life down to a tee!

    In fairness, when has a cat ever saved someone from a burning house. Cats probably start the fires to watch the humans suffer. Evil animals.




    Ah no, I'm growing to like cats more.

    I love cats but dayum if they were human, they would cruel lovers!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,047 ✭✭✭Da Shins Kelly


    Cats are so much better. Dogs smell, they are the biggest attention-seekers of all time and can barely look after themselves. Cats, on the otherhand, are low maintenance, independent and don't stink to high heaven. My cat and I have a mutual understanding. She doesn't love me or anything, she just wants to be fed and given a comfotable place to sleep for 16 hours a day. I'm happy to provide this, so long as I don't have to wash her or bring her for walks or constantly play with her. Sometimes she brings me gifts in the forms of beheaded birds and mice, which is thoughtful, and I bought her a nice collar. We don't require anything from each other except the bare minimum, with the occasional bonuses. It's the perfect relationship.

    Yes, sh1t wouldn't be the only thing that they'd bury in the garden.:eek:

    I love dogs. Especially boxers dogs.

    Whenever I see a dog I love like a boxer or king charles, I go up to them, pet them and might give them a kiss. They always return the favour with licks.

    Can you imagine humans acting that way? I would be greeted with a smack if I was to walk up to a hot stranger and kiss him.

    I wouldn't call that a favour, not after it's licked every dog's arse in the neighbourhood.

    I've a fairly strong dislike for dogs as pets.... They're fine but I'd need to get to a very bored stretch in life to ever get one.

    I've eaten dog before.. It's actually grand and was probably the most joy I got out of them in the last five years.

    This is why I avoid excessively "catty" women as a point of principle. You can tell a lot about a person by the traits they project onto animals. And it is projection. I've known excessively needy cats, that went doolally when the owner was out of sight. Hell I've know two high rise apartment cats that freaked out if brought outside at ground level. I've also known very standoffish dogs and disloyal dogs. It's not the species, it's the individual animal, but most of all the owners projected personality.

    Though no matter what ones opinion on the two species, dogs are by far and away the most useful to humans.

    Me I like wolves.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    Dogs are high maintenance, cats are low maintenance. I like it :)

    You ate dog meat! thats awful. I could never imagine a dog ending up on plate. Mince or mutton or any other type of meat on the menu could have done you but dog?

    This is complete balls. Cat-loving people aren't all alike and often share few traits even. :rolleyes: Such a stereotype. Judging people on their pet preferences, whatever next?

    EDIT: And whilst you may occasionally find a needy cat, they are very rare indeed.
