Gary? That's a hilarious name for a cat! Gary is a person's name! A person's... name!

rotfl omg you just made my day/ night!!! xD

Okay, I'm going through reading comments, and I see Gary. Bahaha. One of my cats used to be named Gary. And I volunteer at an animal shelter, and there's a cat there named Gary as well. LMAO. OP, like a lot of other people said, Fabreeze, shower, clean, and I have to add, GO OUT AND MEET PEOPLE. hahaha.

lmao! 14 you're my ******* hero

#14 Have you not watched SpongeBob???

I think she has one...

Eh, you can stereotype anything. Doesn't mean it's true.

Dogs stink WAY more than a cat. And if you mean they're useful because they can warn you of intruders or help fend them off, not all dogs can. Some cats can, btw. And cats give you quality companionship too. So really, unless you're the type who needs to run to the park and throws frisbees all the time, I don't see why you'd think a dog would be useful for anything more than a cat. At least cats piss and shit where you want them to most of the time. Dogs? Hardly ever.

^LMAO

Not true #42. My dog was beat as a puppy so he has a hard time loving anyone. He can only stand 3 people and he only loves two, me and my dad (sometimes). All of my dogs have been like that because they are all shelter dogs that have a hard time around people because of abuse or neglect. All of them have only liked a small circle of people. Are some dogs actually idiots like that? I can't imagine...

Most dogs are naturally like Tarynkd described, and will seek attention from anyone. But you're mostly right about the abused/neglected dogs. I've had multiple shelter dogs, myself, and they tended to be either really scared/reclusive or attention-starved. I have one of each right now, and the former took over a year to warm up to me. Seems like the younger you save them from their abuse, the more well-adjusted they become later. (Actually, my current "attention-starved" dog is mostly normal, but if she barks at the door we have to let her in as quickly as possible or she will start to panic).

I'd like to add that some shelter cats, will love attention from anyone. They may not trust just anyone, but a lot of those cats will just climb into anyone's lap who comes in and sits down. Of course, that's not all, because there are some (I can think of one in particular) who are so terrified of anything, any sudden movement scares them, and any noise scares them...and its hard to give them attention because of it. But rewarding when you can.

I agree with 29 cats are useless seriously...and for those who say cats piss and shit where you want and dogs don't are retarded. there are many different breeds of dogs and they can all be trained. and seriously? "you have to work for a cats love so it's more rewarding"? why the **** would you work for a cats love? they should be grateful to be taken in and fed and given shelter. dogs understand this and they know that they could very well be outside fending for themselves because the instinct is already there. they are much more appreciative than cats. I've had two cats and all they ever did was kill roaches and my Rottweiler does that...and lot of dogs bark at people they don't know so shut that shit up my german shepard woke my dad up at 3am because he had to go to the bathroom. walked to his room, pulled on his shirt until he woke up, and then went to the back door and scratched at it. so if you can't control your dog it's because he doesnt respect you or even look at you as an authority figure and thinks he's the boss or "pack leader" so to speak. it's just like kids really. you don't have to be a douche but you need to show'em who runs shit because if you don't your kids will be telling YOU what to do dogs alert, watch, protect, guard, hunt, sniff out drugs, sniff out bombs, find missing people, save police officer's lives, and help blind people find mobility despite their handicap. when have you ever seen a cat leading a blind person across the street?! GTFOH! I don't really have anything against cats but to say they are better than dogs is a grotesque statement that won't go undetested as long as I'm here
