Monday Musings (Dog vs. Cat)

Sushi and I have been wondering. Why on earth do people get dogs?

We can easily understand why people get cats- I mean, we’re awesome. We’re adorable, we eat anything on four legs or flies that bugs you, we’re warm and snuggly, we’re smart, and besides that we’re cute.

There goes one of those unfortunate tail waggers now. Poor thing.

We can even understand why they have pet hamsters, mice, rats, and rabbits. (Something for thier cats to amuse themselves with).

We can understand why they get pet birds too- (to punish their cats).

They get pet fish to tease us. And because they get some sick, perverted pleasure in watching us go nuts trying to figure a way to snag fish out of their aquarium.

But dogs? Oh. I get it. Something to warm their couches and beds for them and to chase away the mailman bringing all those bills and also to annoy their nieghbors.

Well, I guess that makes sense. Until you get a cat like Sheba that chases the dog away. Or a cat like Sushi to sit on them. Hmmmmm.

There’s got to be a better reason than that. I think I’ll sleep on it.
