to think that we always knew that dogs liked us better than cats?

Love the video. But have to say I'm still a cat person, was out with the dc and a dog owner friend with her dc at the weekend, one of the kids desperately needed to poo and went behind a bush without telling us ... the dog ATE IT!!! I was beyond horrified, how do you snuggle up to an animal that does that??

You stop it from eating the poo. And/ or don't let it lick you.

I like cats but dogs are so loyal and loving. One of mine is quite independent - and whilst she's pleased to see you and likes to come for a fussing, she won't stay. She likes going off and playing with her toys and doing her own thing.

My other dog is like velcro though. I know he loves me; he shadows me everywhere and always likes to be close to me. If I go away he pines and doesn't eat properly. He is old though and I am dreading the day he is no longer here

And then let it lick you. Eweeeee

Well my cat loves me. Either that or he's trying to suffocate me.
And cats smell much nicer than dogs. Well mine does, he's a house cat.

Sorry for double post.
Bloody phone!

I love dogs, had a spaniel for 16 years gawd bless her, but cats are waaay more intelligent. They've developed a whole special way of communicating with us (meowing) in just a few thousand years of domesticity. If they can evolve to that extent in such a short space of time then we're screwed - they'll take over the planet within a few thousand years, mark my words
