Cats are better pets than dogs.
Did you know that cats have 30 teeth and dogs have 42! No wonder cats are cheaper, easier to train, self-sufficient and well-balanced. Cats make better pets then dogs because, they are cheaper, self-sufficient and easier to train then dogs.
Lower Cost
The annual cost of dogs and cats are different. According Financially Fit blog, Annual bill for feeding and vet bills varies for small dogs $1,314 first year, $580 per year after. Medium Dogs $1,580 First year and $695 per year after. Large dogs are $1,843 first year and 875 per year after. Where cats are $1,035 first year and $670 per year after. No matter the breed away it always stays the same for cats. This estimate does not include if and or when you travel. Dogs you have to either bring along or pay extra money to have with you, get a dog sitter, and board them somewhere or a dog walker while at work or away. Where cats just need to have enough food and water for the time that you are gone, or have a relative or friend come and check on them. These estimates include food, annual vet bills, they don’t include extras like toys,. According to the ASPCA, training and grooming for a small dog breaks down like this:• Long hair grooming – $264 • Training class – $110 • TOTAL - $374. Ever see a dog's playthings? Shredded rawhide bones, torn tennis balls. They're in tatters (unless, of course, they've been swallowed). Cat toys tend to be hugged, carried and carefully hidden in beds or baskets. Cats keep their prizes safe from intruders who might steal that square felt thing with the bell in it, or the sparkly ball that squeaks. And cats firmly believe in stockpiling: A calico named Cassie once stashed 27 ping pong balls under a skirted rocking chair, apparently sensing a global shortage. Her owners thought the balls were lost. Instead they had become "cat collectibles." Cats also make better fashion choices than dogs -- have you seen some of the outfits dogs allow themselves to be seen in? But no self-respecting feline would don a hot pink hoodie without clawing it to ribbons first.
Easier to train1
Dogs takes weeks if not months to fully potty train, then you have to make sure they can be walked while either gone or at work, not including to train them to be nice, sit, stay, come. There is more than these commands, these are just the basics that takes weeks to conquer. You also have to fully house break them. That depends on how often you can walk them or let them out to go potty, even then it can take a long time if you don’t stay on top of it. Whereas cats take matter of minutes to potty train. Show it the litter box, lock it in the room with that litter box for a day or two, and it will know what to do. As for further training for cats, after you train them for the litter box, which is easy, just lock them in a room for a few days with food and water and litter box. Then the rest of the training is just making sure they don’t get on the counter, come to their name. A thunderstorm shakes the skies, drenching the dog walker as she waits for her trusty pet to take care of business. Its cold, it's midnight and this is all so inconvenient. In snow, sleet, heat or rain -- the dog needs a walk. Demands a walk. Bring the scooper, the scented disposal bags and patience. Meanwhile, a contented cat sits smugly in the window, unaffected by the downpour outside. A quick trip to the litter box and the cat's set for the night. Even on a sunny day, cats wouldn't dream of asking for a walk. Wear a leash? Yeah, right. Try placing a harness or leash on a cat, and watch how it squats, thinking that colorful ropy thing has somehow tied it down. What, you want the cat to lead the human around while wearing that? Please. Save it for the dog. Who must be walked again?

Self- sufficient. Dogs are social-pack based animals, they need human contact daily, hourly to survive. They depend on humans to go to the bathroom, to eat, to play more so then cats. Cats can be social to their owner when they want to be yet they don’t depend on them to survive. They can go weeks without being petted or touched as long as their litter is clean, there is food in their bowl and water available they are content with life. Dogs need toys to play with granted you can get a stick and some dogs will be content with it and play with it. As for the cat, they can make anything into a toy. I have seen cats take a hair tie and make it into a three hour toy for them. No need to spend outrages money for cat toys, just give them things they can throw around on their own. That is another thing, dogs need you to play with them, and they don’t know how to play by themselves. Where cats can play for hours by themselves.
Not only are cats better to have, they are cheaper, only have 30 teeth! They need less contact and time. They need less training, no need to spend a bundle on toys they can be good with a milk ring, when you need to travel just need to give them enough food and water! I have three cats and a dog, and I wo Most dogs will always vocalize their moods. A cat will keep it to itself. Upset, happy, excited or just talkative, dogs bark. Loudly, dogs announce every news event, from a stranger at the door to a new flavor of treat. Cats, even with protesting meows over a flea bath, lack the chops to compete with a dog's decibel level. Feline complaints are mostly mews and occasional hisses, barely audible from another room. Your neighbors will never call to inform you that your cat's hissing is keeping him awake. Before the moving red dot became a cat's most favorite activity, felines had to settle for chasing a flashlight's beam. Boring! Then, the arrival of that dancing pinpoint turned cat play into a fast-forward ballet. Cats never tire of racing after that elusive speck. Slapping hopeful paws over it, they're baffled when it seems to escape. Where does it go? No matter, they're hot on the trail, and getting a cat-cardio workout while they're at it. While a dog will chase a ball, he has no interest in whatever that flashy, red thing is. Why pursue something if he can't fetch it for a reward? But cats know the laser pointer's real reward is the chase itself. And someday they really will nab that little red sucker
Elderly and Kids, for the elderly the best animal are small dogs or cats. When I mention cats I am saying older than two. For the elderly you will not want a big dog or a kitten, and if you have your own place and not in a helping home, then a dog is great. Usually you are in a home where people check on you so you might not be able to get a dog, also you might not be able to walk the dog, meaning the elderly sometimes are unable to walk so the cats are better. As for kids, either can be great animal can be great with kids, yet if you have small kids it is recommended that you have cats, or older dogs that are set in a routine. Again if you have a newborn having new animal’s period is not a good idea.
Friendly animals, when friends arrive at your home, a dog goes into a frenzy, barking, leaping and pawing at the newcomer. "Pay attention to me!" he begs, as his excited nails rake a guest's linen blazer. While the dog does everything possible for approval, from racing around the room to bouncing like a basketball, the cat is usually nowhere to be seen. Cats prefer to observe new arrivals from afar. For instance, under the bed or atop the refrigerator. Maybe, if the cat is in the mood, she'll come out to acknowledge this New Person with a tail twitch, a cautious once-over. But that's it. No effusive greetings, no jumping on laps or humping of legs. Invite a cat to your dinner party. She'll stay discreetly out of the way, while a dog lusts for -- and sometimes runs away with -- the main course.
