>>13039307I like dogs, but I've always been a cat person.
The thing about dogs is that they need attention. They are, for the most part, in need of at least some level of affection. That's why they freak out when you come home from work or where ever you were. They whine and jump all over you because they missed you. They need affection. Cats? If you leave to go camping for a week, just leave a big mixing bowl of food and water, and they won't be too bothered that you're gone. Cats can be and are affectionate. But they are a LOT less needy than dogs. Cats mind their own and often like to hang out alone. And even with the ones that like laying on you and want attention, they don't NEED it like dogs.
