Here is a the hardest poll ever!(to me at least)

[SemaviLady]

I'm a confirmed horse nut from my teenage years (I had to board mine in the early years when I could finally support my horse habit). I'm a long time cat owner (I had pet rodents and many fish as well) but after I finished school, married and bought a home with small acreage -- I was finally able to have dogs and just about any critters I wanted.

For me dogs win hands down!

In one package, you have portability, a cuddler, loyalty/love, a guardian, a companion and interested partner, one who watches while you sleep, who can help carry things for you (help me keep my balance, I'm disabled), work (oversee livestock) and play to make me laugh, alert me to danger (on coming car, I'm deaf)... and they accept all the same benefits in return. For me, there is just no comparison to the versatility and the partnership one can share with a dog!

Thus was a hard poll for me, but I chose cats. when I'm older I would rather have more cats then dogs, that is really what I based my choice on. It's not that I don't love my dog that I have right now as much as my cats, I just would prefer to have more cats then dogs.

This is very hard ...
I don't think I will vote because I love my cats and dogs dearly.

Well, I voted dogs. Dogs are my kind of animals. Cats are... just... not.

[sandragonfly]

ohh I'm crying here! why did you had to me even to think to choice?!

...no vote.

[Twisterdog]

I definately chose dogs. I've owned dogs all my life, and probably always will.

I'm very allergic to cats, and could never touch them or pet them, for as long as I can remember. So I guess I just "wrote them off" as a pet I could ever own or love. If that weren't the case, I'd probably be torn between the two as well.

Well, if I have to choose....

I love them both so much, but I would pick dogs. They are more friendly than cats and easier to train!! Don't have to worry about litter in between your toes if you go a pup!!

[Taz_Zoee]

I voted cats. Because I've been a cat lover longer than dogs. Not that I didn't love dogs, but my sister was the dog owner and I was the cat owner growing up. I only liked the dogs while they were puppies. Of course that's all changed since I've grown up. Now I love ALL dogs and cats!!

Dogs!

Dogs hands down! No offense to cats, I've met a few cute ones but I prefer the bigger cats like leopards, tigers and lions but you can't have those in your house! So I'd have to go with dogs...plus I'm allergic to cats.
