Smarter cats or dogs

[Shadowdrake]

Dogs being more loyal than cats.., that depends on the cat...

Some cats don't care much about people certainly, but it often has a lot to do with how you 'raise' the cat from when you get it. Just about any cat that I have had, has grown quite attached to at least one person in the family.

Take the youngest of the two cats I have now for example-- she comes running to greet me and play just about the moment I go outside. Both she and the oldest cat enjoys going for walks(without leashes too), as long as I don't go too far from the house.

Dogs are slaves.

Cats are royalty.

You order a dog. He complies, that is about it.

A cat you request and if you have done it correctly he might grant your request.

A dog eats his own poop.

A cat buries it.

If you are staving a dog will kill his own food but won't share it with you.

A cat will bring you food. You might not like mouse but it’s the thought that counts.

If you go down and can't get up the dog might try to get help.

A cat will watch you die, morn your death, then go find another human to enslave.

Cats are much smarter by my standards of smart.

No dog can do anything to a LION.

The Queen of England would say her corgies are indeed royal LOL

As for cat and dog poop....you can get rid of the smell of dog poop easy...but try getting rid of the smell of a cats poop/pee its needs a mirical

And thank god dogs dont leave half chewed up vermon on my door step LOL

Ya they just went out and rolled in it. mmmmm... good smell.

LOL

[Beckys_Mom]

LOL

LOL they roll in it for a reason to hide their scent LOL its a known fact

I own a Springer Spainal...those dogs are normally used as gun dogs and police dogs ...I live in the country and I have lost count the amount of times when I have gave Charlie a bath and the sec I take him for a stroll...he dashes accross the fields and rolls around to hide his scent...I have seen him go after rabbits, birds ect..and catch a few LOL

[Grandpa Greenman]

Springers are smart. I had a dog crossed between a springer and shepard. He was the best dog I ever owned. Wish I still had him. I had trouble teaching him to fetch. After he brought the stick back about three times on the fouth throw he would sit there and cocked his head and look like he was saying, "If you want the darn thing quit throwing it away." That was the end of the game. I would say that dog was every bit a smart as a cat. Saved me from stepping on a snake a few times.

This is my Springer Charlie...mad as ever..likes to chase rabbits and birds but kinna fears the swans in the lake cuz they hisssssss at him..so he is a lil apprehensive on diving in after the swans LOL although he would just love to!!!

I still think dogs are smarter but cats are better kick boxers LOL

[skratch]

In my opinion, it entirely depends. I know some REALLY stupid cats and some REALLY stupid dogs, but I also know some really smart ones. Just like there are really smart humans, and really stupid ones. I think they both even out, but since dogs are loyal pack animals, they seem to be thought of as stupid.

My auntie has one of those , but I don't like it because it attacked me.

Well a dog can smell out bombs, detect land mines, smell out drugs (Family Guy, lol ),save a drowning person, pull a sled and retrieve a duck you shot.

But I put cat because dogs scare me.

A dog can sense if you are scared of it thats why some with growl at you LOL

I read in another thread about meat..you said you like to hunt and eat your kill...so I imagined you had a dog with you....like the one I have I posted his pic above..springers are used mostly as gun dogs and love to go hunting...but as you are scared of dogs I take it you go a hunting alone lol

My 8 month old baby girl loves dogs..when they bark at her she goes into fits of laughter

[Luvkittys7]

if cats are so smart how come they didnt invnt a can opener my dog once ripped open the dog food bag. stupid cats with there loud music and smoking Marijuana. Hey cats. YOU GEAT A JOB!

This post makes absolutely no sense unless the poster was smoking with the cats. Then it has perfect clarity.

But you have to put in a lil consideration ...like his age..he may be just a kid himself and hasnt grew up yet and is only trying to understand things...I picked that up from a lot of his posts.....not saying it to be funny...after all its a family forum and kids of all ages post...he could be one of them...*shrugs*

PLZ note the above is not saying for sure he is a kid...I am only guessing...not putting him down...

[Celumnaz]

What's in my pocket?

robbie,

ADHD is a product of calorie-rich nutrient deficient diets. A by-product of the "western diet".

As sheri says, "you are what you eat".

[robbieb]

WHO DO U THINK YOU ARE? DON'T U DARE TALK ABOUT ME LIKE THAT. and if you knew anything about ADHD you would know that is not true. so i'm asking you to never talk about me like you know me. thanks! ADHD is agreed my a vast majority of doctors is caused by genetics. diet, brain trauma, parenting, and allergies are no longer consided to be causes. because 2 children from one family who eat the same things and brought up the same way one might have it the other wont. brain trauma has show that children with adhd ususaly have no brain damage at all. and heres something for u i know someone who is vegan and has ADHD. do your research next time.
