The differences between cats and dogs.

1. Dogs say wow, this human is feeding me, loving me, grooming me, and picking up my poop. This must be God. Cats say, wow, this human is feeding me, loving me, grooming me, and cleaning up my poop. I must be God.

2. When I yell at my dog, he sticks his tail between his legs, and runs away whimpering. thinking, "Bad dog, I'm a bad dog, God hates me". When I yell at my cat, he sits there, stares me down, and than looks at the dog, "No really, the DOG peed on the carpet, not me". As I continue to yell, he boredly walks off and thinks to himself, "For the yelling, I'm peeing in your shoes the next time I get the urge".

3. My dog will eat anything, at any time, and tries to eat stuff off of our plates before getting stuck in his crate. My cat is finicky, rarely eats his cat food, and would only eat off of my plate if there was a big good cut of steak on it.

4. My dog whimpers as my children tug on his ears, and than I have to make them stop when I hear him whimpering, saunter into the room, and realize what is happening. When the children tug on my cats ears, their scream and whines bring me into the room as they show me their cat bites and scratches.

5. I tell my dog to sit, and he sits. I tell my cats to sit, and they roll around the floor, and is that purr sounding something akin to laughing?

6. I bring my cats to the vet for shots, and afterwards, the vet charges me for antiseptic ointment for his arms and makes me run to the store to buy him a new box of bandaids. I bring my dog to the vet's office and he whimpers and cries, until they give him a doggy treat.

7. I walk my dog down the street on his leash. I carry my cat as he flat out refuses to walk on the leash and just lies there until I pick him up.

8. My cat kills a bird and leaves it on my porch. My dog picks up the dead bird and tries to give it to me, as if he is playing "fetch", and he doesn't drop it until we are screaming at the top of our lungs for him to "DROP IT!"

9. My dog chases the cat around the house. My cat gets sick of being chased around the house and the next thing we hear is a whimpering dog that is shaking all over and trying to lick his private area.

10. My dog hides under the bed, and cries during a thunderstorm. My cat jumps in the window and watches the storm as if it is calling to him.

My cats and dogs are quite different from each other.
