In contrast, cats are way more often accepted by landlords. Their silent and hygienic nature makes them the perfect renter! Look at these tiny kittens, do you think they could wake you up in the night? Alright, when they grow up, they actually can But we don't think that there is much room for argument when it comes to how noisy dogs can be compared to cats. Have you ever witnissed how loud dogs can bark or even howl? Well if not, consider yourself lucky because it's not a fun experience.
While cats also can meow pretty loudly, it's not just a random noise they make. In fact, your cat meowing loudly over and over again is a pretty good indicator that there is something seriosly wrong with it! So instead of dogs randomly barking because the postman is coming, your cat will only meow loudly if it is in serios need for help!
Cat owners can all agree on one thing: Hearing a warm, heartful purr of your cat can make your heart melt. Here at KittySensations, we go even further and say: The purr of a cat is the most beautiful, calming sound in the whole animal kingdom! Do you want to argue with that? If yes, then you are propably not a cat owner We know dogs can also make beautiful sounds and maybe our stance on purrs is a bit exaggerated but that's just how we cat lovers see things.
When it comes to being fancy, cats are the absolute masters! If cats were humans, they probably would be extremely rich. Jokes aside, if one were to describe how cats walk and behave with one word, we don't think it would be false to say: Graceful. Dogs on the other hand don't act or walk gracefully at all. In fact, when thinking about our metaphor, we would like to add that dogs would probably serve cats their drinks Dogs come across like they are happy all the time.
This can be super beautiful and we love dog smiles just like everybody else! However, we value that cats have their own, independent opinion on things. They are not puppets who laugh and smile at everyone and everything. Cats feel free to like and dislike whatever they want. Ever tried to change your cats' diet? The second you are pouring that food into the food bowl your cat will stare at you like: 'Human I am not having that'.
By the way, when it comes to cats liking stuff: Our cat themed jewelry has been tested and approved not only by hundreds of cat lovers, but also by our fluffy furr-friends themselves! Thank you Zappa the cat , we love seeing you happy with the bracelet.
Once you own the pet, there are plenty of expenses you will have to incur, from supplies to caretakers. Because dogs have a tendency to destroy their toys , they have to be made from much tougher and much more expensive materials—or replaced often. Cat toys are relatively cheap to buy and even cheaper and easy to DIY. Plenty of exercise is absolutely vital to a dog's health, but getting two or three walks a day can be tough when you have a full-time job.
Cats, however, are perfectly content lounging, napping, and playing with their toys at home alone while you work the day away. It's even better if you have two kitties since they'll keep each other entertained.
It's virtually impossible for dogs to have an indoors-only lifestyle; they need a lot of exercise, plenty of walks, and time spent outdoors to live happy and healthy lives. But if you don't have a yard or access to parks, or have limited mobility, this may present a major challenge. Not only are cats much safer indoors , but they're perfectly happy perched next to a window or curled up in a sunny spot on the couch.
Simply crack a window for some fresh air but make sure it's not open wide enough for kitty to escape , and your cat will be totally content watching birds and bugs all day long.
Even the biggest dog lovers have to admit: Whether your dog is barking at a passerby, another animal, or simply because its favorite toy is stuck under the couch, incessant barking can get pretty annoying. While cats certainly do make some noise— especially at night , when many cats are most active—meows and purrs tend to be pretty quiet. Meowing and purring are cute, but even better, you'll begin to recognize what your cat's meows actually mean.
You'll learn how to differentiate a meow that means "I'm hungry" from a meow that means "Cuddle me! Both puppies and kittens require an incredible amount of time, energy, and attention. Between getting it comfortable in its new home, introducing it to its new diet, and starting some preliminary training, you may be a little bit sleep deprived during the first few weeks with your new pup or kitten.
Puppies, however, need ongoing training especially for potty training , but once kittens are weaned from their mothers and have learned the basics of using the litter box, they can be left at home unsupervised during the day.
Do you want to be extra safe? Put your kitty in a room where it can't get into mischief while you're gone. It'll keep the kitty wrangled in one safe space and, due to its smaller size, it won't be able to cause much if any damage from being contained. Cats are natural-born hunters, so it's in their DNA to stalk, hunt, and pounce on their prey—even if it's on a television screen.
While you should never, ever let your cat eat a bug or mouse it catches, a pest-free home is just one of the many benefits of owning kitties. What's more, your cat's scent alone can keep rodents away from your house; if rodents detect a hunter in the home, they're far less likely to enter. While it may be a little weird that your cat pees and poops in strategically placed boxes all over your house, cleaning out a litter box is far easier than having to take walks late at night, during scorching summer days, or through freezing snow, all while scooping up dog poop with a plastic bag over your hand.
Cats are naturally very clean creatures, and one of their instincts is to bury their pee and poop. This hides their territory from predators who, like cats, use their sense of smell to find their prey. Although house cats aren't necessarily being hunted by predators, humans can reap the benefits of neat, clean, and completely covered waste. Dogs love stuff that smells bad—from garbage, to dead animals, to poop—and they really love to roll around in it.
Cats will lick and groom one another, and you, as a show of bonding. Even as kittens, the tongue plays an important part in the life of a cat. The mother cat will like their kittens to simulate expelling waste, to simulate appetite to suckle, and of course for cleaning.
As for the oils, cats much like dogs, use scent in their day-to-day lives. This moves their oil, or perfume as some like to call it, off of themselves, and to the object they wish to mark. Which is the other reason why they groom themselves so frequently; restoring the oil back to their coat, which they then use to mark their territory or place claim to objects or people. While cats are well known for grooming, there is such a thing as too much grooming.
Either due to a medical condition or anxiety, a cat can continuously lick itself or certain spots until the hair is gone.
Dogs can be like this too, and with both species, excess licking not only leads to bald spots but also infections.
