Cats vs Dogs
As we all
know dogs and cats can be the most popular pets around the world, but they
have different characteristics that require us as owners to
deal with them in different ways.
Dogs and cats can be considered as excellent pets, but
depending on the owner a cat could
easily be considered a better pet than a dog or a dog could
be considered a better pet than a
cat. In order for anyone to make the right decision on
either pet, it all comes down to
dependency, pleasing, and training.
Cats
are far easier to care for and dogs are typically more responsive to their
owners. Cats
may be independent, but it’s the dependence of a dog that
catches everyone’s attention when
they own one because they release the love hormone, which is
called oxytocin. Scientists
discovered that dogs produce such a high level of oxytocin
when they see their owners. Cats do
too, but not nearly as much.
When choosing
between a cat or a dog, you want to try and consider how much time you
can dedicate yourself to your pet each day. Dogs require
more time with their owner than cats
and dogs don’t like to be left home alone like cats do. Dogs
are more expensive than cats so you
want to make sure how much you are willing to spend for
either pet.
Cats make
friends with humans just like dogs do. Dogs require more training than cats do.
Dogs require more affectionate and daily walks 1-2 hours a
day. You may train dogs how to use
the restroom outside when cats just know how to use their liter
box. You may train a dog by
using your commands of sit, stay, down and you really cant
use those commands in a cat.
At the end of the day each animal requires a
different level of attention and as an owner
you must decide if you want to care for either pet.
