The jury is still out on whether cats or dogs are smarter, IMO

[War Horse]

A dog will, most of the time, eventually figure out the problem by itself.

A cat will continually stare at you until you solve the problem for it.

1. Dogs rule. n/t

2. Which proves the cat is smarter

by getting someone else to do the work. They are good at that.

6. That's why they're management, and dogs are staff......

3. They each have their own kind of intelligence. Hard to compare with each other, or with humans.

Though they say a dog, in some ways, is about as smart as a 2- or 3-year-old human. So I'd imagine cats are at about the same level.

7. My Siamese had an IQ of 70--smart enough to use the toilet...!

(NOT smart enough to flush it, however........)

4. Dogs can drive cars

I want a dog that follows behind me in a power wheels when I ride my bike. In an escalade power wheels, with "Like a Boss" painted on the side.

5. I rest my case.

9. I see your cat video and raise you one Dog getting beer for owner

And Dog with Kittens sleeping. Because the only thing that can make Kittens cuter is adding a dog.

10. Call.

8. I've seen that one with the dog before. "You fucking foot...just a little bit closer"

11. The jury is not still out!
