It’s the eternal cats vs dogs debate, one that both sides are equally passionate about and one that can never really be settled. Or can it? Pet Foolery, the genius behind one of our very favorite comic strip series Pixie and Brutus, has weighed in on the argument with a new funny comic that lists all the reasons why ‘cats are superior to dogs.’
Now, as you soon see, this webcomic might be ever so slightly biased. Nevertheless, there are some strong arguments for an emphatic victory in the battle of the pets, and the beautiful cats are smarter, cleaner, and better at looking after themselves. These are indisputable facts, unarguable by silly dogs.
The tendency to consider oneself as a ‘cat person’ or a ‘dog person’ is quite understandable, given that they have naturally conflicting temperaments. Dogs are more social and playful while cats prefer their independence; one has to earn the attention of a cat while a dogs’ love is unconditional. The personality of the human quite naturally gravitates one way or the other, but do you really have to choose? With some careful introductions and a little bit of luck, cats and dogs can live together in relative harmony. Why choose one side or another when you can have both? You only have to read Pixie and Brutus to see what can happen when these opposites attract and the sparks fly!
Something tells us that these funny drawings are only telling half the story, and we will hear from the canine perspective soon. In the meantime, scroll down below to see what the cats think, and let us know your opinion in the comments!

I wish someone would tell my cat he is supposed to be quieter than my dog. Sure my dog barks anytime someone knocks on my door, but for some reason at 4:00 or 5:00am every morning my cat needs to sing me the song of his people.

My dogs bark if someone is driving up to my house or if they see a vulture. My sisters cat meows loudly to be petted every time she sees people.

My dog- barks a night if she's in the yard Solution- bring get inside Cat- meows very loudly nonstop for like 30 minutes when I let him in and he just follows me around the house. Solution- none. Petting, food, and cleaning the litter box does not quiet him. Must assume he is telling me about his day so I must listen until he is done.

All of these comments are like ''I'm A DoG PeRsOn aNd CaTs SuCk CuZ THEy ArE UnLoYAl BLAH BLAH BLAH'' Bruh I have had so many cats and not one is unloyal. Everytime I'm home they are waiting at the door, and I bet anyone that reads this comment is gonna be like ''THEY WAIT AT THE DOOR CUZ ALL THEY LIKE IS FOOD.'' Listen, cats don't just care about food, if you had actually owned a cat and not just look at memes, you would know that cats aren't ''idiots and unloyal pieces of rubbish'' and that they actually care about you.
Adrita Dasgupta 4 years ago
Dogs are best..no matter what....they are loyal and playful....cats just think about themselves and their food...so, they are not ideal pets..and come on way close to dogs.
E Hasnain 2 years ago
That's what everyone dog person says. Stop stereotyping cats as rude, mean and uncaring. I have had many cats and I can tell you, they are just as playful as dogs and actually care about me. I feed stray cats and they are very grateful for that. So if you like dogs, that's fine but please don't stereotype those beautiful animals as vain, unkind and impolite.

BUT, dogs love you for who you are. They love you because you are their family, because they trust you, because you love them. Cats don't love you and if they do, it's only cause you give them food. I love both cats and dogs but I WOULD pick dogs over cats and c'mon. You know it's true.

yea... no for starters, when cats clean themselves, they barf up there own hair which causes a greater mess. You still gotta wash your cat sometime often. I get that number 2 would be annoying but they bark when they see an animal such as a squirrel. The third one is for BIG dogs only, if it was a small dog then it would be just like a cat. HOWERVER, THE 4th ONE MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL... have you ever seen the Sphinx cat? or the Oriental Shorthair? Why not search up cute puppies like beagles or huskies, maybe that will change your mind but either way however made these comics are just lowlife cat lovers. edit: oh wait nvm lmao

A " cats only" woman was staying with us for a few weeks. At breakfast, she started in on how much smarter cats were. Our dog was sitting a few feet away. I started eating and next thing, our dog's nose was about 3 inches from my plate. I looked down and said "Maisie, on the rug". Her spot at the back door when we were eating. She looked up "Who , me???" "Maisie. ON THE RUG." OK. Me I guess. So she wiggled her butt backwards, side to side until the base of her tail just touched the rug and she stopped. I had neglected to say how far on the rug. My comment to our guest. "That dog should have been a lawyer". No more "smart cats".

NO WAY! Have you ever heard of a police cat? How about assistance dogs? How about dogs who work with our military heroes. The dogs are heroes too. Dogs will not hesitate to put their lives on the line for their families or colleagues. Cats walk all over the counter where you prepare your food, usually after they use the litter box. I do blame the owners who think that "FluffY' has to get time outside...at which time they do recreational killing (billions of birds and small mammals every year). I own a ranch, and will live trap cats and take them to animal control. I have caught them stalking baby birds. I have had a few barn cats, but don't ever plan on getting another. We have had peeps dump them on our place. Finally, there is a scene in the film CLOCKWORK ORANGE where a lady has a home invasion, there are cats everywhere. The punks assault her and all these cats just ignore the situation. A dog would have protected her.
