they are so much livelier than cats.
That's what I don't like, the jumping, licking, (play) biting etc. but they're ok when they're calm and still.
Cats, definately. I don't have the patience for a dog. I need quiet sometimes, and not something jumping all over me and barking. And I'm really bad with routines, so I wouldn't be able to take it for enough walks and stuff. Cats are nice and fluffy and independent.
