I'd rather have a cat than a dog...

Too damned lazy to have a dog... All that walkies, and taking it with you everywhere you go, cleaning its mess up when it fouls...

Na, not for me, get a cat... :D

I like cats, but sadly the dog does too, so I never get any of the good bits... :roll:
(actually alergic to the damn things, so I have no choice but to be a 'dog person'!)

I'm 26 btw, amazing girlfriend who appreciates good cars (most of the time), contemplating moving at the mo but not sure of the details as she's got another year at uni & I don't fancy buying a house right now (especially on my own!).

The Prophet Mohammed was a cat lover also. So in theory you shouldn't be questioning where exactly the 'beef' in a curry comes from. 8O

Cats are superb and have perfected the art of indifference.

The difference between cats and dogs:

The dog sat back and thought, "these people I live with are so nice to me. They feed me, give me somewhere to sleep, take care of me including almost every little whim. Wow, they must be Gods"

The cat lay down gracefully and thought, "these people I live with are so nice to me. They feed me, give me somewhere to sleep, take care of me including almost every little whim. Wow, I must be a God"
