Cat: I think a cat is better as a pet because:
- You don't have to spend time on them. With cats, you can either be with them for a long time and they will love it. Or, you can not do anything at all with them (You still have to let them outside/clean their litter box, feed them, give them water."
- They don't annoy you. Cats are very chill and relaxed so you don't have to worry about getting harassed by your own pet.
- Most breeds are affordable. Cheap cat breeds that are very cute are Turkish Van, Ragdolls, Siamese, and Manx.
Therefore, I think cats are better pets than dogs because of the reasons listed above.
Dogs: I think dogs are better as a pet because:
- They offer unconditional love. Dogs do love us because we provide for them. This is the same reason that in the wild, dogs will remain with their pack.
- They offer emotional support. They relieve social anxiety because they provide a common topic to talk about. Hence, pets counteract social isolation.
- They offer many, and I mean MANY cuddles. Just like you, the number one reason dogs like to cuddle is that they love you.
Therefore, I think dogs are better pets than cats because of the reasons listed above.
Hope this helps
