I think there’s no doubt that dogs make much better pets than cats. Dogs are very fun and nice to be around. Dogs are also very playful and active, no matter how old they are. Dogs are also very smart and helpful. It’s no reason they call dogs mans (or woman’s) best friend and why they’re better pets than cats.
I run into cats on my paper route and they sure aren’t nice to be around. There’s this one cat that just hisses and snarls at me every time I deliver the paper. I feel like it’s going to attack me. There’s also a dog at the same house and it’s always wagging its tail and looking like it wants to play. I also used to run into this one cat I called “cranky kitty” walking up Requa Rd and one day he chased me and Dimitri up the hill, hissing and acting like it wanted to attack us. When my first dog, Tioga, was 13 years old he would still run around the house and play tennis ball with me for hours. I’ve never seen cats his age do anything except walk around slowly and maybe purr a little or rub up against your leg. They basically just want to be left alone and they’ll decide if and when they want to spend time with you. Dogs are playful but they don’t bite or scratch you like cats always do. We have lots of friends with cats and all they want to do is scratch me with their sharp little claws which isn’t very fun. Kittens, just like puppies are very playful and active but once they grow-up they become pretty boring. Dogs will only bite you if they’re being protective or feel very threatened. Cats just seem to want to scratch you all the time. Dogs also love to be around people. My dog Misty love to wake me up in the morning by racing into my room, jumping up on my bed and giving me kisses. She also jumps all over me and wags her tail when I get home from school and lets me lay down on her like a pillow when I’m tired. I don’t think a cat would do these types of things.
