Dogs vs Cats.

I believe cats can also be trained to detect cancer, they just don't care enough about us to do it.

For the record, if it's going to live in my house, pooping in a box as opposed to everywhere is pretty damn valuable.

I'm just going to say that without any training my cat protected me from a centipede crawling on my bed.

I was having a hard time sleeping because my cat was being uncharacteristically rambunctious (she usually sleeps on my feet). After an hour or so of this, I decided to get up and see what the heck her problem was (I figured I'd forgotten to feed her). The lights went on, and she kept running around the room and giving me a 'you think you could maybe help me out a bit here' look. I realized that she was chasing a huge centipede around and much of the noise she had been making was her knocking it off the bed whenever it got too close to me.

Now, I know that those damn things aren't poisonous, but I can't begin to tell you how amazing it is to have a creature care enough about you to spend over an hour trying to protect you from a perceived threat (she could have just wondered off somewhere or allowed it to run on me in her pursuit of the thing). The thing is that this isn't the first time a cat has done something like this for me. A cat I had as a child did much the same thing with a scorpion, the only difference was that he killed the thing (by breaking its back - he was a much more powerful cat than my current cat).

Well in the last 24 hours, the dog has eaten two dirty diapers, a full stick of butter and some extra wrapping paper. He also led me on an unplanned 20 minute run through the neighborhood.

The cat has pooped in a box, played fetch with a squishy felt ball, and slept in the windowsill. The one time in his entire life the cat was off leash outside, he hid under something and cried for me to come get him.

Right now... the cat is winning.

I'm going to train my dog to smell everyone's crotch but tell them she has the ability to sniff out cancer.

Cats can detect cancer too. They just don't give a fuck.

This will probably be buried in the comments and I hate saying that but I must tell you about my cat.

While my cat was not trained to do this, I think it is pretty cool. I have type1 diabetes and sometimes I get very low blood sugar levels at night. When this happens I always wake up because my cat is pawing at me and she does not do this at any other times.

Another weird thing is her name. Her name is Sugar, and I named her before I knew she would do this. And in case some might not catch it, a diabetic with low blood sugar needs to eat sugar or else he or she might have a seizure if it continues to fall.

Always seems to be the dog people that make these Dogs vs Cats things. Its like those people with dogs that NEED you to like their dog, even though you don't want to be anywhere near it. Isn't it good enough that you like a dog, why does everybody else have to?

ITT: Nothing you can say is correct.

I get your "point". But comparing what one animal can do after being trained intensely to what one animal can pretty much intuitively do is pretty stupid. You can train a cat to use a toilet and flush it...

cats: shit in box, have ass breath

dogs: shit outside, have ass breath

cats: chew on cords, show butthole to humans

dogs: chew on underwear, show butthole to humans

cats: soft and quiet, bathe themselves

dogs: greasy and loud, roll in shit

cats: don't tell you about the cancer, doesn't respond to simple verbal commands

dogs: sniff out cancer, respond to verbal commands sometimes

both of them are obnoxious and cute. it's not really a competition.

So in other words, cats win, right?

One is man's best friend, the other is man's reclusive roommate who spends his days licking himself and shitting in a box.

Every post about cats and dogs? DOGS ARE SO MUCH BETTER!!! What everyone posts as just a single animal? CATS CATS LOLO CATS I dont understand you reddit.

We specifically bred dogs to be dependent on us. Them liking us is basically a long term, selective breading reach-around. We shouldn't be too proud of it.

TIL there is no one on reddit who owns a dog that doesn't shit violently and uncontrollably all throughout the house, and that cats invented science.

My Mum's Cat knew before she did that her cancer had returned, that Cat stayed inside with her more often. The Cat became stressed as my Mum was treated for pain and started licking patches of it's fur off. I get annoyed by people that claim Cat's have no concern for their owners, it's not remotely true. Mum's Cat missed her after she passed away in August and our Cat's have come over to my wife and I when we've been upset about something.

Dogs can also be taught to drive, and know that when you open the door, they can come in. The cat will stand there, doing the fucking hokey pokey because it thinks there's a force field there.

I think that people confuse clingy with stupid. Stalker girlfriends aren't stupid (all the time). They're crazy. There's a difference.

Related story: I was watching TV in bed with the cat on my side, and then the little eskimo dog thing comes up and stares at the bed. A minute passes, and it hops up on the bed, and sits next to (read: on.) the cat. 15 more minutes go by, and I realize the cat left. The dog sat on the cat until it gave up.

I'm sure cats could detect cancer too if they could be bothered to give a fuck.
