I have always been scrutinized for my unpopular opinion that cats are better than dogs, but I have living proof to back it up that no one seems to realize! I've had two cats for most of my life, and let's be real, they're kind of my best friends. There are so many reasons why cats are better than dogs, but here are just a few for you "dog people":
No baths! How great is that? Giving a dog a bath is a true struggle for most people, and even if you take your dog to the groomer, cats still save you money!
2. They don't smell bad
I still don't understand how people deal with that wonderful wet-dog smell.
3. They do their business on their own
Who the heck wants to pick up dog poop? With cats, you just have to throw the litter away! Easy clean up!
4. Which means you don't need to take them on walks outside
Sure, taking dogs on walks might be relaxing for you or a good time to exercise, but how often do you really feel like taking your dog outside to poop?
5. They don't eat your homework!!
Plus, "my cat ate my homework" just doesn't sound right...
6. They don't follow or bother you when you have your own food
Cats don't want your fancy food, they want their Fancy Feast!
7. They don't bark loudly or annoyingly
They just meow, which is cute!!!
8. They usually have cuter names
Doesn't "Snowball" sound way better than "Max"?
9. They kill bugs for you!
No need for bug spray! Cats kill bugs for you (and sometimes eat them...)
10. They are entertained with simple items
Cats love playing with yarn or boxes! You have to buy dogs bones or play fetch with them, which means more work for you!
11. They're much cheaper to adopt
If you really wanted to, you could get 12 cats for the price of one dog!! How exciting!
12. And finally, they're so cute!
Ugh, OMG, I'm in love.
