One trait cats and dogs have in common is that they will both look up to you . . . but they look at you differently.
“If a dog jumps in your lap, it is because he is fond of you; but if a cat does the same thing, it is because you lap is warmer.” -Alfred North Whitehead
“Your cat will never threaten your popularity by barking at three in the morning. He won’t attack the mailman or eat the drapes, although he may climb the drapes to see how the room looks from the ceiling.” -Helen Powers
“My sister wanted a cat for a pet . . . I wanted a dog, so they bought a cat and taught it to bark.” -Charles ‘Chic’ Murray (1919 - 1985)

A pet cat and a pet dog cannot eat from the same bowl, as neither one should eat the food meant for the other. Even though modern processed pet foods all tend to look the same, the ingredients are different because the nutritional needs of the animals are quite different.
While cats have only about 473 taste buds and do not have a ‘sweet tooth,’ dogs have about 1,700 taste buds, and appear to like sweets much more than cats do. Humans have approximately 9,000 taste buds.
Domestic cats, just like their wild forebears, are carnivores, or animals that eat other animals. Cat food is high, or dense, in protein, fat, minerals, vitamins, and calories. Cats eat smaller meals, but more meals, throughout the day, compared to dogs. When cats feel they have eaten enough, they will usually leave any remaining food in the bowl and go off to do other cat things, perhaps returning sometime later to eat again.

Domestic dogs, just like their wild forebears, and also like humans, are omnivores, or animals that eat both other animals and plants. Dog food will likely need to be measured with a measuring cup or scoop, or poured into a bowl of a known size, to ensure that a dog does not eat more than is required, because dogs will eat everything placed before them, even continuing to eat more than is healthy for them and well past fullness.
“‘I’d better not eat that,’ said no dog ever!” -Author Unknown
One way to reduce the chances of a pet cat or dog needing to go to the veterinarian after eating something it should not have eaten is to make sure that the cat does not eat the dog’s food and that the dog does not eat the cat’s food. Cats can digest small amounts of Vitamin D, but dogs cannot, so a dog that eats fish-based cat food might need to be taken to a veterinarian immediately.

Spot: What do you get when you cross a dog and a cat?
Fluffy: An animal that chases itself.
Understanding
I said “Hello” when I came in;
Sport wagged his tail and licked my chin.
I said “Hello” to Boots, and she
Purred and rubbed against my knee.
You can speak Chinese? What of that?
I can speak dog! I can speak cat!

When cats chase their prey, they keep their heads level. Dogs and humans bob their heads up and down when chasing prey. Ducks cannot waddle, waddle, quack, quack without bobbing their heads. This could be a whole new way of looking at animals!
In contrast to dogs, cats have not undergone major changes during the attempted domestication process. This is likely because dogs got an earlier start; with the wild ancestors of dogs having a similar omnivorous diet to humans and mostly living in groups as humans do, they began voluntarily hanging around human settlements, possibly to scavenge discarded or unguarded food or to beg for food. Cats, having a strictly carnivorous diet, being nocturnal or more active at night, and often living solitary lives, may have been less drawn to early human settlements. Much later, when humans began to live less by hunting wild animals and more by agriculture, cats may have been drawn into closer quarters with humans, because food crops such as grains and fruits attract rodents, birds, and other small animals that cats prey on.

House Rules For Dogs And Cats
Dear Dog and Cat,
When I tell you to move, it means to go someplace else, not switch positions with each other so there are still two of you in the way.
The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
The stairway was not designed by racecar drivers and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn’t help, because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king size bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue to sleep on the couch to ensure your comfort.
Look at videos of dogs and cats sleeping, they can actually curl up in a ball. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space used is nothing but sarcasm.
-Sincerely,
Your Tall Lanky Housemate

Can cats and dogs ever get along together? Yes, they can. Despite the stereotypes, not all dogs and cats are disagreeable towards each other. However, to increase the likelihood that a cat and a dog can live together without being adversaries, you may need to make some efforts. Begin if possible by introducing them while they are young animals, as a kitten and a puppy. At this age, they are learning about their surroundings and everything and everyone in it. They can become accustomed to each other’s presence, behaviors, appearances, and smells. You can facilitate the process by playing with them together, using pet toys and common everyday objects. However, it is important to always keep in mind that as different species, they will always have different nutritional needs, so each must have its own specific foods. They will also have different needs in sleep, activity level, and the amount and kind of attention they need from you. And, lest we forget, they will also have different needs when it comes to frequency of visits to the veterinarian.

Dog And Cat Owners Have Different Personalities
Dog owners and cat owners are as different as night and day, says an expert - who reveals the distinctive personality traits of each. People are like their pets, said Dr. Vinsey, Professor of Anthropology at Pace University in New York City, who made a six-year study of pets and their owners.
Dr. Vinsey characterizes dog owners this way:
- They tend to be more outgoing and sociable and they are more apt to be openly affectionate.
- Dog owners are more generous and helpful. They are more ambitious and assertive and more apt to take risks to reach their goals.
- Dog owners are more ‘outdoorsy’ - they love to tramp the hills, go camping, and participate in active, energetic sports.
Cat owners are a different type says Dr. Vinsey:
- They tend to be well-read, articulate and cultured and more imaginative, creative, and curious than dog owners.
- They are more apt to be loners. They enjoy privacy and tend to be aloof until they know someone well.
- Cat lovers are comfort lovers and tend to pamper themselves. They’re more finicky and choosy, have exotic tastes and are nonconformists. They also tend to be more opinionated and independent.
- Cat owners are indoor people. Their greatest joy is to curl up in front of a fire with a good book or a television miniseries to view.
But both cat and dog owners are far more flexible than people who don’t own pets, said the doctor. They take a less rigid approach to life and adjust more easily to changes in plans or circumstances, she said.

Cat hearing is better than dog hearing. Cats can hear sounds up to two octaves higher than humans can hear - but they will never tell you this, preferring to keep this ability exclusively for their own benefit.
Dogs are mentioned a total of 44 times in “The Bible,” 35 times in the ‘Old Testament,’ and 9 times in the ‘New Testament.’ Curiously, cats are never mentioned . . . maybe because they are not as good at herding sheep.
