Beg your pardon, Could have****
Cats do smell
Dogs rule
especially border collies
Hyenas are not canines. They are actually closer to being felines. And cats are much better hunters than dogs.
I love cats but after two nearly all white cats, one is still alive, I am not planning on any more cats.
I'm done with the hair.
Cats don't smell. I'm going to kill you.*
Report that fuckers!
Kill me with your accumulated cat hair ? force it in my mouth and suffocate me?
Crack on and when your sat on your cat fur covered chair with the Macbeth style blood on your hand you shall realize something. Cats bloody well stink.
And then your going to realize your itchy. You'll be itchy. This is because cats carry shed loads of fleas.
The first two statements are true.
Hyenas are in the sub-order feliforma, superfamily feloidea.
The last statement, I think, needs to be qualified before a subjective value can be assigned. At best, it would be more accurate to state cats exhibit a wider range of hunting strategies, everything from solitary ambush hunters to cooperative pack hunters.
But when it comes down to it, a hunter is either successful and eating, or isn't and starving.
A pregnant fish is probably better off without a cat, indeed. For her fishy babies you see.
Though shall have a fishy on a dishy.
When the boat comes in!
Dance to your daddy
I understand your comment, but the number of wild cats in the world compared to the number of wild dogs tells me cats are doing much better, on their own. Also, if you've owned both cats and dogs and seen them try to catch birds, you know my statement is basically true.
I'm a dog lover, by the way. But I respect cats a lot. Maybe even love them a little. Even though most of them are kind of stingy loving me back. A few are lovers though. And I love them.
Sing to your mammy!
I know what you mean. Mine is pure white and even my chair at work has his fucking hair on it. It's like velcro, it sticks to everything.
Yah, I suppose going by shear numbers in the wild (and stipulating those estimated numbers are accurate), you have a valid point.
I could counter that, by and large, most wild cats are solitary hunters that need larger ranges per individual, also dogs are more adept at scavenging.
Additionally, I could point out that canines tend to be far more social animals which provides an advantage that most felines do not have (off hand I can't think of any feline pack hunters other than cheetahs and lions, but conversely I can't think of any solitary canine hunters).
Personally, I get on well with both dogs and cats, but dogs definitely have higher requirements for living space and care.
There are solitary canine hunters. Foxes, for example. But I don't consider them dogs, per se. Cats are far more diverse in a lot of ways than dogs. More diverse in form and size as well as habits. Huge tigers and lions down to very small, like this:

And there are a lot of them on almost every continent, in one form or another. Wild dogs are rare, by comparison, most places. Even in Africa, where true wild dogs are becoming scarcer and scarcer. They're not doing well.
I don't mean to put dogs down as hunters. They are obviously good pack hunters, generally speaking. Better at that, as a general rule, than most cats. But cats do it all, in one form or another, very well.
I think I've beaten this horse enough.![]()
We have a dog, and he's okay I guess. I'm more fond of the tarantula, really.

While all foxes are caniforms, and "true" foxes are part of the subfamily caninea, they are a separate genus with not only different behaviors, but different diets. Unlike dogs, foxes are omnivores and proficient scavengers. Many species of Vulpes will also hoard food.There are solitary canine hunters. Foxes, for example. But I don't consider them dogs, per se.
