Cats and Dogs as Pets

Have you ever owned a cat or a dog? You may think cats and dogs are very similar pets. However, if you not only adopted a cat but also a dog, you would find some differences. I owned a cat and a dog two years ago. When I compare the two kinds of pets, the advantages of owning dogs are clear.
First, dogs are more handsome than cats. My dog, who was Alex, was a big furry white dog. He had big brown eyes, pointed ears, an all white body, and he weighed 100 Ibs. Cats, even though they are delightful, they are too small. My cat’s name was Scotch, and he was a cute little ball of fur. He had orange and white fur, green eyes, and long white wiskers but weighed only 10 Ibs. I like bigger pets!
Second, dogs are friendier than cats. Dogs are man’s best friend. Alex was like my family member. When I came home, he always ran to the door immediately to greet me. We often played and were dependent on each other. Scotch, on the other hand, was somewhat unfriendly. Scotch always scatched, bit, and slept on the sofa; he never got up to greet me or play with me. he was too individualistic and very selfish.
Third, dogs are smarter than cats. Alex was highly intelligent, so he understood my needs. He often helped to look for my keys, watches, and shoes when I forgot where they were. Once, I forgot my keys, and Alex looked for them under the sofa. However, Scotch was silly, so he never understood my needs. At the time, he just woke up and jumped to me for his food. I gave it to him. After he ate, he went away.
As a result, adopting a dog is better than a cat because a dog is more handsome, friendlier, and smarter than a cat. If you’re thinking of finding a feline friend, don’t do it. If you own a dog as a pet, you will have fun in your life. Dogs’ traits make them man’s best friend.
