Cats.
Dogs are too "in your face" for me. Plus, I'm not good with anything that tries to lick me.
:lol :agree Cats
are kinda sneaky, and dogs make better companions. But dogs are pushy and big, coming close to sniff at people they don't know - just like the kind of people I hate. Well, I'm actually afraid of dogs, but I think a dog of my own would be ok, because it's not a stranger.
But, I refuse to inflict that anxiety on other people who are afraid of dogs too. I've known too many people who were total pricks when it came to their dog vs. other human beings. Both my dad and my sister were assaulted and bitten by dogs - and the dog owner sued
them for upsetting their dog, even though they did no such thing! I mean - WTF?!. Now, I know I probably won't be such an *******, but I don't even want that responsibilty.
I've never heard of anything similar hapenning with cats.
And cats appeal more to my SA, because of their beahvior.
That said - I've never had any pet, and my parents wouldn't like one, so as long as I'm living with them it's a no go.
