Five Reasons Dogs Are Better Than Cats
Before all you cat people get angry with my blog, please take a look at my previous post titled "Five Reasons Cats Are Better Than Dogs" .. I am a DOG and CAT person. I love all things furry. But I do see the benefits of having one or the other and I also see the downside of having one or the other. Whether you're a dog or cat person, the most important thing is that you are a good pet owner and give your pet a good home with lots of love.
Five Reasons Dogs Are Better Than Cats:
1. Dogs Fetch
Cat don't fetch. They chase things. They chase the red laser dot. They jump and play. But if you throw a ball, it's highly unlikely your cat will retrieve the ball and bring it back to you. There are of course some exceptions but majority of cats don't fetch.
2. Dogs Bark
This isn't always a good thing. Especially if your dog is a yapper. Never the less, the loud barking of your dog can scare away unwanted visitors and intruders. Meows are cute but probably wont scare away potential robbers.
3. Dogs Don't Need a Litter Box
Dogs, if they're trained correctly, poop and pee outside. Cats can be trained to do the same but even if you let your cat outside, you still need to keep a litter box in the house. In the event where your dog has had an accident, poops in the house, you might notice the smell is not as bad as cat poop. Poop never smells good, but if I had a choice between having to smell cat poop or dog poop, I would pick dog poop.
4. Guilty Dog! Kitty Shaming - Does it work? Nah.
Whenever a dog is shamed, they often give you a look like they're definitely embarrassed and also kind of remorseful. You can often observe this sense of guilt by seeing on their cute furry faces. Cats have a tendency to display absolutely no regret or sense of guilt. It's possible to place signs on the cats or even next to them, and then take all the snap shots you wish, however I’m quite certain that felines are not pondering their shame in a similar fashion their humans are thinking about it .
4. "Here Kitty!"
Cats don't always come when you call. Sometimes you will call your cat and wonder where in the world they are. Meanwhile, your cat is just lounging around on under the couch, ignoring your calls. Dogs on the other had, will almost always jump right up and come running over for affection. Some cats also have a low tolerance for petting. Dogs often can't get enough of it.

Five Reasons Cats Are Better Than Dogs
I realize this is a controversial blog title, but before all you dog people get angry with me I'm going to let you know now that my next blog title is "Five Reasons Dogs Are Better Than Cats".. Because I am both a dog and cat person. I like all furry things actually. Except for wild rats and skunks. Skunks are cute but they really make it smell bad for miles and miles. Rats are kinda cute but they tend to carry diseases. I have been a dog person most of my life but I recently rescued an adorable cat and am just in love with my little furball. She puts a smile on my face every single day just like my dogs have always done. I'm so glad I have her in my life.
Moving along, here are 5 reasons that cats are better than dogs:
1- Cats are not as needy. You can leave a cat at home for a few hours and the cat won't give you a guilty look when you start putting your coat on to head out the door. You dog folks know exactly what look I'm talking about. The look a dog gives you when they know you are going to leave them alone at home. That look like "..you're leaving me? here? alone? how come? what am I going to do while your gone? I don't want you to go.... I'm going to pee somewhere because I'm upset you left me here. In fact I might even chew up your shoes"... You won't get that from a cat. A cat won't usually even bat an eye when you start making preparations and start heading towards the door.
2 - Cats are cleaner. Cats don't go outside and roll in the mud or other animal feces. Nor do they eat other animal feces. In fact, they hate their own feces so much that they bury it. They meticulously clean their fur anytime it gets dirty or messy. They don't like to get wet or into anything that's going to make them smell bad.
3- Cats are not as loud. There are a few exceptions as some cats can pack a fairly loud meow. For the most part, the sound of a cat meowing isn't going to make nearly as much noise as a dog barking. When was the last time you heard a knock at your front door and your cat started meowing? Does your cat start meowing every time someone new walks in the door or when they hear the mailman dropping off a package? Nope. Chances are your cat makes the most noise when they want you to feed them. Once they are fed, the talking is done.
4 - You don't need to walk a cat. Some cats don't even need to go outside. Cats have their own toilets. Its the litter box. Some might argue that cat poop smells worse than dog poop, but the actual size of the poo is usually much smaller than a canines and easier to dispose of.
5 -Kitties Purr.. Dogs can't purr. They can wag their tails and bark, but they just can't make that soothing sound that comes from pure feline happiness. Kitty purring makes everyone happy.
I hope I haven't offended my fellow dog people out there.

Epic #SochiFail: Wolf in My Hallway - Jimmy Kimmel Hoax
Jimmy Kimmel punked the entired internet by filming a video of a domesticated wolf in his studio and then giving the footage to Olympian Kate Hansen. Hansen then posted on YouTube, claiming that she was pretty sure she saw a "wolf roaming the halls" of the dorm she was staying in while she was in Sochi! The video went viral and several news sources picked up the story believing that this was actual footage of a wild wolf roaming the hallway. It was all a hoax.
I don't see how people thought that this was a wild wolf. This is clearly a friendly domesticated animal that appears to be perfectly relaxed and friendly. It looks like a happy pet..but I have to say it was quite a funny prank. The wolf is actually adorable.

More Funny Pet Shaming
If what this sign says is true and this dog does indeed like to hump the cat, it looks at though the cat isn't very happy about it. Especially considering the cat is either the same size or larger than the dog. I think this picture is hilarious but I feel for the cat. In this case, dog shaming is definitely justifiable.

Funny Lazy Bear
Bears are funny creatures. They're like puffy furry humans with claws and paws and teeth. They break into cars and sometimes into houses.. yeah I wouldn't want to encounter one in the wild or anywhere else actually. But they are still funny to look at in silly bear photos. Especially this one!
