I was once asked in a Q and A on a Sunday morning if I thought “Dogs go to heaven.” I responded by saying, “The real question is do cats go to hell?” To say I hate cats is a bit much. I don’t hate them, but I certainly don’t love them.
If you’re at all observant you’ve picked up on the fact that most people are either dog people or cat people. There’s actually been a study done on the differences between these two groups.
Sam Gosling, a psychologist at the University of Texas in Austin, proved through his study there was significant differences on major personality traits between dog people and cat people.
The results showed that dog people were generally about 15 percent more extroverted and 13 percent more agreeable, both of which dimensions are associated with social orientation. In addition dog people were 11 percent more conscientious than cat people. Conscientiousness involves is a tendency to show self-discipline, to complete tasks and aim for achievement. The trait shows a preference for planned rather than spontaneous behavior.
In comparison cat people were generally about 12 percent more neurotic, however they were also 11 percent more open than dog people. The openness trait involves a general appreciation for art, emotion, adventure, unusual ideas, imagination, curiosity, and variety of experience. People high on openness are more likely to hold unconventional beliefs while people with low scores on openness (dog people) tend to have more conventional, traditional interests.
They also discovered cat owners were one third more likely to live alone than dog owners and twice as likely to live in an apartment. A single woman was the most likely individual to have a cat.
I dug through all of the research presented and came to my own conclusion. Cat owners are 95% more likely to be more weird than dog owners. 
Please don’t send hate mail. I love you cat owners (just not your cats).
So which are you? Team dog or Team Cat?
I would say that I am a dog person. (Don’t like cats either)
What does it mean if my spouse has told me that I am a bit neurotic thouch?

LOL…that is awesome. Dog person here, had 4 at one time not so long ago.
I haven’t conducted a study, but that percentage…”Cat owners are 95% more likely to be more weird than dog owners”…seems a tad low

I’m a cat person. Not that I mind dogs, I just prefer cats. I am disagreeable sometimes so that rings true.
However, if dogs and cats could talk, Dogs would tell each other how much their owners played with them and gave them attention. Cats would probably plot the deaths of kids who torture them.
Team Dog
.-= Alison´s last blog ..Girls Night – AI Top 24 =-.

I have seldom been dog-less in my 40 years so definately team dog. It’s not that I dislike cats (they are high entertainment) but I am extremely allergic to them.
Definitely a cat person, possibly influenced by the fact that my parents would never let us get a dog growing up, but we always had a cat around. I used to think that once I got out on my own, I’d get a dog and find that I was a dog person, but experiences with my friends’ dogs tells me otherwise. I think I like the laziness allowed with owning a cat. Dogs are more needy and require more of a sacrifice (of my time, of my house not smelling like dirty dog, etc).
I would certainly agree that cats are much more low maintenance.
Dog.
Do you think people are more lilely to think dogs go to Heaven because of that movie, “All Dogs Go To Heaven,” just a thought.

Dog person, definitely. I’ve had one cat, and of course loved it, but a dog can do so much more. It can run by your side. It greets you with a wagging tail, and a smile when you get home. It listens, and never talks back or causes dissension in the home. My dog just loves me for me.
Totally a dog person, don’t really like cats, and I’ve had both.
I think this research is spot on.
Doggone it, Pete! That’s another computer screen you’ve made me laugh my coffee out onto!

Cats.
They don’t chew everything to bits, they don’t dig, or bark at thunder or other ridiculous things (like NOTHING), if they leave the house they come back, they don’t hump your leg, they clean themselves, they purr, which is much nicer than getting slobbered on… and they don’t need you to exercise, which means you can stay curled up on the couch (with them) and eat chocolate.
You make some good points.

LOL, very funny analysis.
I have ALWAYS wanted a pet. We grew up killing gold fish every other week because Mom and Dad thought we were too busy to have an actual pet, pet.

And I will add to the conversation as I am definitely team dog here.
Dogs rule. Dogs have personality. You can tell when they’re happy. You can tell when they’re sad. They’re companions. They are fiercely loyal. They can be trained.
People talk about cats purring. Whoopee. They’ll purr while walking next to you and then purr the same way against the leg of a chair. They don’t have a personality, just an attitude. Tell a cat to get down off the kitchen table after they’ve jumped up and they’ll give you a look at that says, “Buzz off dude.”
If cats could remain kittens their entire lives, they’d be fun to have around. But once they turn into adults they become pretty much useless to have around.

Team both. Love dogs and cats equally. Together they make you the complete pet owner.
I’m allergic to anything with paws and hair, so I don’t have a dog – or cat – in this fight. Funny thing, though: When I was a kid, I thought the song “Bullfrogs and Butterflies” (you know, “Bullfrogs and butterflies have both been born again”) meant that God had bestowed special salvific privileges upon bullfrogs and butterflies and that they were the only animals going to heaven.
Now I’m inclined to think the new heaven and new earth will at least include parakeets – cause they’re awesome.

Well I am an extroverted introvert that is self disciplined with a spontaneous behavior a bit neurotic but open love art and hold unconventional ideas but have conventional traditional interests and live alone with my wife, two cats and dog on our one acre 3 bedroom 3 bath apartment. I like dogs and cats.
Cat people neurotic? Hahaha Although I do find it funny as a person with 3 cats that I have two degrees in psychology. Does that mean Allan is neurotic too since he has 3 cats (although he does not let them live inside and did try to pawn one off on me when I went to see Selah in October lol)
And great I fit part of the stereotype – I am a single woman and I live alone. But not in an apartment
I live in a duplex

.-= Kathi Waddle´s last blog ..Ruin Me =-.
I have fish. I’m a fish person. How wierd am I ? lol
Deep breaths, deep breaths.
OK–I begin by saying that I love ALL God’s creatures. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, birds, turtles and a rabbit (not all at once). However, I now live alone with my 2 cats. And yes, I’m also a single woman. And no, I’m not bitter…at all…I SWEAR!
The thing is, I adopted my 2 fuzzy eating-machines with my ex-boyfriend in tow. I was sure we’d be married soon so why did it matter if I had 2 cats? After dating for 4 blankety-blank years, he is now married with a child. Bonkers and Punkin are my children…I occasionally remind them of their dead-beat father and how I was/am the only one there for them…did I mention I’m not bitter?
Anyway, I’ve started to ramble as I often do, but my point is that I’d LOVE to have a dog…I just don’t have the space, $$, time, etc. And, I am certainly not engaging in anymore pet-adopting activities until I have a ring on my finger!
As for the UT study, I’m claiming rights to both groups.
Cat or Dog? Both!
I suppose that means I’m I mix of both, the best of both character traits, and also the worst (which explains why both lists jived with me to some extent).

So where does that leave me? Fence sitting isn’t a good place to be…

I am neither though. They need to do a study on people who are neither.
.-= David Knapp´s last blog ..Wordless Wednesday (10) =-.
Both
Is that possible?
I’m thinking that Noah apparently boarded both both dogs and cats on the ark. Each provide a blessed source of unconditional love. I have been fortunate enough to enjoy life with both species.
For the most part, domestic dogs seem to be more needy, will blindly accept discipline and domination, and will perform whatever is required if offered a reward.
Cats, independent creatures, choose their owners carefully. They attune to moods, wellness and joys of their owners, while expecting nothing in return, yet appreciate affection when given.
Can I be both or neither? See, I prefer cats but I love my big baby of a dog (87 pounds of big baby to be exact). If I had a choice, well, I wouldn’t be able to choose. I would want to keep my dog and also have a cat.
I do think that I am more like a cat person though.
.-= Jen´s last blog ..Doctrine of Satisfaction =-.
When I was a child, we were permitted to have cats but not dogs. I’m not sure if I was a “cat person” then or if I just really wanted a pet. That said, today I am very much Team Dog. If we could have dogs at our apartment I would probably have three: a great pyranese, and 2 daushunds.
I’m sure there’s something psychologically telling in my dog choices, but that’s another post for another day.

They both follow me around the house, especially into the bathroom first thing in the morning, they both have sipped from the toilet when I forgot to put the lid down, they actually play together, and we all snuggle on the sofa together on occasion. They’re really not all that different…
One peek at my avi and I’ll let you decide what team I’m on.
I honestly can’t stand cats, like I don’t even think those posters of them “hanging in there” are cute. But considering my mom is DEATHLY allergic and every time we saw a photo of one when I was growing up she’d say, “D@mn cat!” it may have influenced me a bit.

I love both cats and dogs. However, I actually believe dogs are by nature codependent and cats are emotionally healthier. If raised with people, they love interacting but are not as needy. Actually, I think cats get a bum rap because (1) many people grew up knowing barn cats, who aren’t really socialized, (2) cats don’t have facial expressions, so there’s a communication gap, and (3) people are needy and codependent too.
So your mother-inlaw is neurotic and weird…

I’d say Team Cat, but my [awesome] cat was truly a dog trapped in a cat’s body. Always happy, fetched reliably, came when she was called, and was a social butterfly. I’ve known a few of the sociopath cats out there that anti-cat people are talking about (the ones that wish they had opposable thumbs so they could prank call the cops and get you in trouble), and that’s why I’m scared to get another cat. I love dogs, too, but just don’t have the time for one at this point in my life.

.-= Tony York´s last blog ..Thoughts on the Church Hunt =-.
I love a good cat. I have a bad dog. Pete, I recall you recently confessing your lack of love for your dog at church recently. So, are you team dog? And if so, are you and Bix (?) in counseling? Or in you in denial about being for team cat? I’m actually team horse, truth be told.
Melissa I’m sorry to inform you but Bix no longer lives with us. Counseling did not help us reconcile and he now lives on a farm in Knoxville with a very loving family.
Despite that I’m still team dog but I’m enjoying a quiet house right now.
You sent him to ‘the farm’?! Isn’t the euphemism that you are supposed to tell the kids…
No, he actually went to a real “farm”. He was a sweet dog but a bit to wild for us. He needed more room for all that energy.
Wow – where to start!?! As a child who grew up without pets and was afraid of them, I was surprised when my parents got a Chocolate Lab after all 10 (yes, 10) of their children became adults. I never thought I could love a dog, but I did and was so sad when I moved out of state. He passed in 2001, but his picture is still all over my home and my children include “Bogey in Heaven” in their prayers. I believed myself to be entrenched in the dog camp. That is until, Pumpkin. A tiny kitten of two weeks mewing under our deck on a cold October night. We couldn’t reach him and he was too frightened to come out. The next morning, my oldest, then 5 crawled under and retrieved him. Love, love, love this sweet cat. So much so that he has a buddy Shamrock. Your heart can be opened to any of God’s creatures when called….
I am a dog person who doesn’t fit the stereotype at all. I’m fairly introverted, a total control freak, etc. But I LOVE dogs, can’t imagine my life without one (or two), and can’t stand cats. I just don’t know what to DO with cats. I asked a friend of mine once, who is a cat person, and she just shrugged and said, “You leave them alone.” I don’t get it. The appeal just isn’t there. I love my dog! Hoping to get another this summer, now that I’ve moved and have a bigger yard.
Totally a dog person… afterall dog spelled backwards is God
J/K seriously though- I have always been a dog person and have an intense dislike for cats. I do however like cat-people and try not to let my dislike for their 4 legged child keep me from spending time with them at their house.
Uh oh. I had no idea Bix was at the farm. I bet he’s having fun terrorizing the horses. I think this is your calling to be a cat person. You’re really missing out.
pete, this post has provoked the most passion on this blog in a very long time. awesome! do politics tomorrow.
now, if you get back in need of a new Labrador, let me know…(picture dark hat, dark glasses and raincoat open…)

Great blog, Pete.
Today, though, there are lots of other pets. Any word on the make-up of fish-folk, ferret lovers, rodent wranglers (hamsters, guinea pigs, mice, and rats)? What about LARGE pets? (I almost said LARGE PET OWNERS, but that’s too uncertain).
It is interesting, though, to note that God created the diversity in humanity, and must have created the diversity in pets to meet those needs.
