ChooseTheSun Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 Used to be a cat person, but now I'm totally about the dogs! What a happy thread! Quote
Dravin Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Cats generally, but I don't dislike dogs. Except the ones the same size as cats, for some reason people find their displays of dominance, or just plain bad behavior, cute. Quote

pam Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Looking at the poll, I think annewandering is swaying voters to the cat side because of her cute little kitten avatar that we see every time we read this thread. :) Quote
Jennarator Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 I think someone is padding the ballot box. Quote

JudoMinja Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 I'm a lover of all animals and it is hard for me to pick one over the other, but... I want to own a dog more than I want to own a cat, so I'm going with dogs. Quote
Blackmarch Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 I really do! So we have an I hate cats thread, I think we need an I love dogs thread.Bring on your cute puppy videos and pictures!!! cute puppy whistle - YouTube I like both cats and dogs.. altho i prefer the smarter dogs. Cats get by by pretending to be smart I miss our old dog, kita, a husky/malamute/ golden mix. she was a really smart and strong dog, totally silent too. had the husky markings but instead of ending in the white fur it blended to a light golden color.

Madriglace Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 Gotta stand up for dog folks ... dogs rule! My avatar is Lily a 8 weeks ... she is a cutie now as a grandmother. Quote

I have a feeling that it would be trouble with a capital T! Quote

I have a feeling that it would be trouble with a capital T!Did you know there is actually only one place where tame foxes have been bred? You can read about them here. It is a very interesting research/genetics project that was developed to help us understand the domestication process of our current dogs. As it says on the site, the now domesticated and tame foxes are "''as devoted as dogs but as independent as cats, capable of forming deep-rooted bonds with human beings", so they would make a good happy-medium for someone who would like a dog-like cat or cat-like dog. It is a project that I have been following since I first heard about it a couple years ago, and I think it would be awesome if the domesticated fox became a regular pet. Quote

I'd love to see the tame strains get introduced as pets. Probably still higher maintenance than regular cats and dogs tho. (still would love to have one ) Quote
