Cats V Dogs: the debates rages on.

As most of you know, I have two black cats. Now that H and I have a new roommate, there is also a dog living with us. Here are some thoughts I have about cats v dogs.

Sometimes dogs attack people. Not the one I live with, she's very well trained, but other dogs. Sometimes they attack people, and its almost never people they own.
Cats also attack people, mostly babies. While some people don't believe this, I do fervently think that cats will try to kill babies if they feel threatened by them, such as a new baby in a formerly cat-focused household. My grandma's cat tried to suffocate me when I was a baby. Happily, I did not die.

Dogs and cats are both very territorial.

If you own a dog and you suddenly die, the dog probably won't let anyone get near you. This is a sign of the dogs loyalty.
If you die in a house with cats, they will eat your face. This is because cats understand that the body is just a vessel, and the real you has discorporated. I don't think cats actually know that word, but they are aware of souls and auras and "ghosts". Generally, cats are good to have around because they see thins we can't see.

Dogs and cats both have to investigate everything new that comes into ones home. But cats are much slower and more cautious about new people than dogs.

Dogs are very aware of who, in a group of dogs is the alpha dog. There is a sophisticated hierarchy. Cats are similar, but include all members of the household. Clarence, my alpha cat, wants to sit in my chair, sleep in my spot on the bed (though taller than my head) and be taller than me at every possible time.

Dogs are good at scaring people who knock on the door. Cats do not care who's visiting.
