I've been a cat owner the majority of my life, and until recently I had no idea what it was like to have a dog. I really had anticipated a lot of hassle and mess to come along with owning a dog. What I found out really surprised me. Rather than the dog being messy, I realized it was, in fact, my damn cats that are a great deal more of a hassle and are messy as hell! A quick comparison:
Cats -
1. Fucking stink up the spare bathroom everytime they shit in their litterbox, forcing me to buy a gross of scented plug-ins by the month
2. Puke up their food about 2x/week
3. Puke up hairballs oh, whenever they fucking feel like it
4. Shed all fucking year-round. Not only does my ass have to brush them constantly, but I've got to brush every god damn piece of furniture they sit in
5. For some reason, one of them somehow opens up my fucking sock drawer and loves taking out my wool socks downstairs to play with. What the fuck is that all about?
6. If I'm not quick enough with my clean laundry basket, I'll find a nice bed of cat hair all over my clean cloths. That's always a real nice treat.
7. Can't train them to do shit!
Dog-
1. Once potty trained, he let's me know when he has to go outside, usually every coupla hours or so. No biggie here.
2. Doesn't shed (our breed doesn't, at least)
3. Rarely pukes up anything
4. Has his own set of toys, and has been trained not to eat any shoes or cloths - so no worries here.
5. Doesn't bark much.
So overall, I'd say that dogs are way much more cleaner than cats. Once our cats croak, that'll be it for us with felines.
