At some point in your life you were probably asked if you were a dog person or a cat person. Some people love both of these creatures. But if you had only one to live with, which one would you choose?

A longstanding debate has been taking place between dogs and cat people. Now it's time for fun to face off. Let's look at some of the explanations why dogs might be better than cats.

Cat lovers, don't worry! There are many reasons why cats can be better than dogs as well.

Even only cat lovers don't enjoy litter boxes is probably fair to say. There always seems to be a residual odor, no matter how well you keep up with them. Additionally, litter also tracks throughout the house. Finding a good place to put the litter box in a small house is virtually impossible. It is stinky then dusty to scoop the material.

Dogs do not need buckets for litter. They can be raised at home, and most of them can stick to a schedule. They can use the yard or walk around the neighborhood to do their business. You just need to vacuum up the poop, not the pee the way you're dealing with litter boxes. And you can just use poop bags on walks and a feces-scooper in the yard as for the feces.

The only thing you can do with your cat is not so much play. Most cats enjoy playing with string toys and they're going to knock their little cat ball toys around, so they're more like humoring you. They can play, not just with people, on their own.

Dogs love playing, and they often want interactive play— especially with you. You can use a ball or a disk to play fetch. You can take advantage of an exciting tug-of-war game. In the yard, you can play the chase. You can even set up a doggie "playdate" with another pet if your dog gets along well with other dogs. Just make sure that all dogs are safe and get along with each other.

Yes, cats can be taught theoretically, but even cat lovers know it's usually not as easy as a dog's reading. Often food-motivated cats will soon get bored and walk away from training sessions. And, they're then going to smell the food out of your side and still eat this. Cats generally teach us humans more than we have ever been able to train them.

On the other side, in fact, many dogs enjoy reading. It seems to give a sense of intent to them. It's a job, and love to work for most dogs. Food and love are also highly motivated by many species. We would be able to sit down, stand, shake, lie down, and turn over for a tasty bonus.

Given this, it doesnt really matter if you have a dog or a cat. As long as you love them and treat them well.
