Some cats are as loyal as any dog. I have a male red tiger cat, he follows me everywhere and howls when I leave him in another room with the door shut. He is like my shadow, my tail.

generally speaking, exception to the rule imo.

I love this thread. Thank you.

I used to think this too, until I got older and found how I related to cats changed. I am now more patient, and I also do not try to use old methods of disciplining them.

When I was younger, I learned from my parents how to interact with cats, as well as discipline them and I was using force and intimidation as my primary method, as you see people do with dogs sometimes which I think is wrong too.

Once I grew up, and learned on my own how to properly relate to cats, as well as discipline them with positive reinforcement and not "spankings" my enjoyment of cats has only grown.

I really seemed to have unlocked a key to making the cats happier as well as my relationship with them far surpass any I ever had as a child or younger person with cats.

I have had 3 cats since I became woke to cat behavior and how to treat them, and these three different cats ALL show or showed remarkable loyalty and outward affection and love for me. I can't express how loyal these cats were/are.


TL;DR

Cats are misunderstood by many people and treated improperly as pets. As a result, many people miss out on the amazing true qualities cats possess.

FUCK A CAT!

According to cognitive neuroscience, dogs have a higher encephalization quotient than cats. Objective science proves dogs are more intelligent than cats. Encephalization quotient is expected brain size from a creature's body mass divided by actual brain size. Let the "REEEs" commence.

I found this shirt in a store... "I love all of God's creatures. Put them next to the Mashed potatoes."

This doesnt mean a whole lot since we know very little about "brains" and how they work - certainly not enough to say something is more "intelligent" then another and judging by humans "intelligence" doesnt mean all that much not to mention human history and "oh we know how this works now"
