Have you ever wondered an interesting animal
facts question: why we love dogs much more than cats? Here are the reasons:
1. Cats go MIA
Dogs want to see you every day, all the time every day if they could. At the very least they like to know where you are. Cats disappear for days on end, sometimes you haven’t seen them for so long you’re not sure if they’re missing or just out. What’s the point?
2. Dogs bark
Just to say hello or to let you know the postman is here or that the house is burning down. Cats make a noise only if they want something or if you do something for them – a rare meow or the odd potboiler purr (I don’t trust any animal that can vibrate).
3. Cats are creepy
Let’s not disagree about this, it’s true. Not for nothing does the archetypal witch travel with one on her broom. Dogs are open, cats keep it hidden.
4. Dogs are happy
Happy to see you, happy to be alive, just happy. And they make you happy. Cats are happy too but they will never show it or share it.
5. Cats get pleasure from hurting you
On the rare occasions moggy makes it onto your lap you’ll end up in pain as the cat paws and claws you with delight. You, so pleased to actually be in contact with your pet, puts up with it and show off the scratches as a badge of honour. Sick.
6. Dogs know important stuff
Like when you’re sad or ill and will act accordingly. Cats don’t even know you’re alive, and yet you still have to spend money on them.
7. No need for food recycling
Never feel guilty about out of date or left over food again, your dog will willingly take care of it for you. Cats only want to be fed delicious morsels carefully selected for them and served up by beautiful women like Eva Longoria and Christina Hendricks, they won’t eat your plate scrapings.
8. Dogs welcoming soldiers home is literally the most adorable/wonderful/beautiful thing ever. Please direct me to a cat who would ever behave like this after their owner has been at war.
9. Dogs help save endangered animals.
Dogs are saving the world, one whale at a time. A black lab mix named Tucker, for example, has been trained to help scientists track killer whales by sniffing for their poop. By studying the whale feces, researchers can see how pollution is affecting certain whale populations.
10. Dogs may prevent people from developing allergies and asthma.
Children exposed to "dog dust" may be at a lower risk for developing allergies and asthma later on in life, based on a study in mice. Dog dust seems to contain microbes that influences the number of immune cells in the animal's airway that respond to allergens.
