10 Benefits To Owning a Cat Instead of a Dog
I love my Dogs, but...
My dogs are cute and fun and loveable. They're great company-no kidding. But my cat, now there is a low maintenance relationship!
- Dogs need to be walked, Cats don't.
- Dogs have to be let out to potty, Cats don't.
- Dogs will eat as much food as you give them, Cats don't. They eat a little bit several times a day and they generally eat less overall and their food is typically less expensive.
- Most dogs have to be bathed and groomed on a regular basis, Cats are very clean and keep themselves groomed for the most part.
- Most dogs will help themselves to a sandwich left on the coffee table for a bit, Cats would never.
- Dogs Bark, loudly. Cats meow.
- Dogs require you to interact with them, cats would prefer that you do not.
- Some Dogs eat their own poop. Cats? Not so much.
- Dogs will bark at people who stop by for a visit, cats just ignore them.
- Dogs will try to sniff your crotch, cats wouldn't dare.

It's actually meant to be funny, not serious. Both cats and dogs have many benefits. I have three dogs and one cat myself, so I know what I'm talking about.

Hmmph, thought this was a unique idea for a hub...
