14/12/2007: "THE CROPP CAT ...... lives on seafood"
It's no secret that some people prefer a dog to a cat. A few people actually dislike cats. These people don't wish to understand a very simple point.
Cats can vary in their disposition just as easily as humans vary. Some people are best avoided just as some cats would be a bit too wild.
It depends upon how both have been treated in life.
Humans can come good with a bit of care.
I think it's a lot harder for a maltreated cat to ever change.
A cat that has been gently cared for since a kitten, will be completely different to a cat that is having a hard time in life, with rough handling.
Until you see the difference first-hand you may not know what makes a good cat.
The Robert De Niro character in Hollywood's Meet the Parents had a good summary of cat versus dog.
(Words to the effect while speaking to 'Greg'), You need to earn respect from a cat whereas a dog submits easily.
How true.
Maybe dogs have faster assessment skills!
Maybe cats process quickly for their ability level?
Maybe they find different things important for survival?
We're from Venus and Mars. Where are they from? How would we know?
