In my experience cats are OUT dogs are IN. They have to be the right dogs, though. My dog is extremely intelligent and obedient, thanks to genetics and training. His sister, owned by my brother-in-law and his wife is a waste of space. As are their kids, but that is a parenting issue :[. I can tell you dogs are closer to people than cats: my dog has epilepsy, and takes the SAME medication for it that people take. If a cat has eplilepsy, there is no medicine for it. My dog can make many expressions, cats all have one: disinterest, unless it's catnip, then it's feverish madness. I have met some ok cats, though, in that they were like dogs.
