People Online Are Choosing Who’s Better Between Cats and Dogs, and Their Reasons Are Intriguing
It doesn’t always mean the end of the world for cats and dogs to coexist. Despite their vast differences, these two species can coexist successfully.
Dogs are pack animals that group together into packs in the wild, where they work together to locate food and protect themselves. Domesticated dogs have a strong pack drive that makes them naturally sociable, friendly, and eager to join a family or even just one person who can take care of their needs for food and leadership.
Dogs crave affection and companionship. Cats, on the other hand, are solitary hunters.
The majority of cats in the wild are solitary nocturnal hunters, with the exception of lions. Cats can jump and climb, unlike dogs, which aids them in hunting and makes it easier for them to escape danger. Cats don’t need to cooperate to take care of themselves.
As a result, they become territorial. These tendencies give domesticated cats more independence than dogs.
They may appear distant due to their independence. They enjoy wandering the house at night and often snooze during the day.
In addition to preferring their own space, cats, especially those that have not yet been spayed or neutered, may be inclined to spray outside of the litter box to mark their territory. People on Quora have been asked to decide which is better: cats or dogs, and they provided remarkable replies.

Daisy is my little girl. The day I got her from a quilt shop in Kentucky, she was so chubby, and now look at her.
She is an amazing, very affectionate, and loyal cat. Cats know when their owners are sick, just like dogs. They stay by us when we hurt, too.
I love when they purr; it's a soothing sound. Cats can communicate with their owners.
My cat Daisy loves my husband, even to the point that he has a hard time tying his shoes.
Daisy is a snowshoe, and she is two years old. We are empty nesters, so our Daisy is like my child. My husband is tickled with her.
PS: I couldn't live without a cat; it would be painful for me.

20. Haha...
I personally like doggies more, but some kitties can be sweet as well. :) I especially like ginger tomcats with brown eyes. XD It's funny to tease them and make them grumpy. LOL. XD
21. An interesting thread
Are dogs better than cats, you ask?
22.
Well, this cat says HELL NO. Clover W. Cat is an expert on dogs since he has the extreme misfortune of living with one.
23.
This is Clover's dog, Gatsby. Gatsby is some kind of giant idiot breed. He's a mouth-breather, and he occasionally smells like dead fish (and not in a good way).
24.
Gatsby enjoys the great outdoors, mostly because he lacks the introspection and imagination of cats. See, here is this filthy mongrel actually voluntarily getting wet. Does he even have a brain?
25.
Clover says that the only real life that happens is the LIFE OF THE MIND. He may be an eccentric recluse, but that's only because he is so busy thinking deep thoughts.
26.
But Gatsby, this goddamn idiot, enjoys activities like car rides. If his IQ were even 0.5, he'd know that cars are terrifying and dangerous.
27.
Better to stay inside and sleep. Sleeping is safe and pleasant.
28.
And if the dog tries to nap near the cat, Clover can just whisper disturbing things in the dog's ear: "I'm going to rip off all your whiskers, Gatsby. Then Mommy won't love you anymore, and she'll abandon you at the pound. Shhh, shhh, go to sleep."
29. Or, just kick him off the bed entirely. "There is no dog bed. There is only the cat bed."
30.
The dog is such a large moron that he can't even fit in a box. "I've never seen him sit in a box," reports Clover, "because he is a dunce. He doesn't even know what he's missing."
31.
Clover admits, though, that the dog is occasionally useful for body warmth. That's about it. Otherwise, he's a real waste of space.
Being left alone, especially for extended periods, is extremely difficult for dogs because of their pack mentality. Cats have a unique advantage when it comes to hunting prey and defending themselves from larger predators, thanks to their razor-sharp, retractable claws.
So take your pick on who is better. Drop your thoughts in the comments below.
