    Au contraire.

    Which would you say is showing more intelligence, the animal that gets waited on hand and foot, does what it wants, when it wants and comes and goes when it pleases, or the animal that lives it's life as a servant to a human (and sometimes cruel) master?

    While that's a slightly dishonest argument, it should be noted that it is an argument made possible by the fact that cats have far less in common with dogs than we do. Humans and dogs have complex social instincts and behaviour, while a cat does not, at least not in the same way. It lives in your home because it wants to. Your dog lives in your home because it needs to, and as a result is far less independant.

    Some people are attracted to independance, and I suppose I must be one of them. Dogs just don't have that assumption of superiority so great that it has no human parallel outside of the secure prison.

    Cats are so good at manipulating us it's even got to the stage now that many cats are not in fact following in their forbear's footsteps and catching mice and rats. They do, but only when they want to.

    So, work when you want, as much as you want, spend up to 20 hours a day asleep. Cats laugh at dogs, with their oh-so-eager-to-please tail wagginess.

    "Hello master, hello master (bounce), happy to see you master (bounce), can you see me walking on two legs master? Can you seem me master, are you happy to see me master? (bounce) Here I am master, here I am...(bounce, bounce)"

    "Ha! Look at that. No self respect, no dignity, just spit and drippy tongues and the vacant look of the village idiot.'

    cat's are like a spoiled teenage princess...
    they are a part of a family... and should be treated as such. if you're unready to take care of a child you shouldn't have a cat. plus... psychologically speaking.. you'd like cats more if you're sensitive... and i'm sensitive. plus look at their huge eyes. and their cute little bodies... and their beautiful clean fur... and their baby face... and the fact that they love to hunt and bring you presents lol. they bring you presents of dead animals because they don't think you eat if they don't see you eating. so they panick and bring you food. plus it's in them to hunt.

    Cats are clearly superior.

    They get human beings to wait on them hand and foot and they provide almost nothing in return. Only a species of real geniuses could pull that off.

    Now the cat wants to have a word with you...;-D...

    Cats are good for nothing but wrecking your house, killing local wildlife, crapping in flower beds and puking up whatever foul gunge they've been ingesting on the sofa or freshly wiped food preparation surface, not to mention bringing fleas into the house and spreading them all over your upholstery and bedding.

    Dogs on the other hand can be trained to perform a wide variety of helpful tasks, and whilst not immune from the problem of fleas, will at least have the decency to appreciate those who feed them.
