Cats are better than dogs!


I strongly believe that cats are better than dogs!


In my opinion, I think that cats are better than dogs because cats are cute at all times!  Dogs are not cute because they always have their tongue sticking out, which is also quite annoying!!! When a kitten is born and if you walk anywhere it will just keep following behind you and it is super cute!!


Another reason, is they are really good company, when I feel lonely or have no one to play with, my cat will always want to play. Dogs always are mostly outside so they might be muddy.  Cats are also really cute when they do rolypolys. Some cats are so clever that they can do forward rolls too!


Furthermore, if you have just watched a horror movie  and you are really scared your cat will come and sleep with you. As I already said dogs are too big to sleep with you.They can also keep you really warm especially in the winter because cats if they lay on a spot they lay on it for ages and that's why it makes your bed so warm.


To support my argument that cats are better than dogs here are some things: Cats are more cleaner, they don’t smell and also don’t make a big mess. Generally a lot quieter, having a dog you have to get up early and take your dog for a walk, but I don’t have to walk my cat.  

I strongly believe that cats are better than dogs!
