As for me being a dog person or a cat person...it depends on the moment I'm in. I would say I'm equally both, just because there are things that cats give that dogs don't, and, vice versa. I love having both when I can. I don't think I could decide. When I moved out of my ex's apartment, and, our cat, Lock, stayed with him, and, Finn went with me...it was based completely on housing. Chris had a good sized apartment and Lock was better there...I moved into a house with a yard and Finn was better off there. But, if I had been given the opportunity, I would have taken both.
