Cats do recognise their owners' voices but just don't care, says study

Although sometimes my cats will come. If they feel like it. And if I have bacon. My dogs, on the other hand, come wether I want them to or not. Personally, I prefer the cats. They usually take care of themselvesn, they've even figured out how to turn on the tap and open my mini-fridge. Now if only they would learn how to turn off the water and close the fridge...

Edited to add, since we're posting about our fur babies now: I have 4 cats and 3 dogs (and a brand new niece, full house!). One cat (Jo-jo) is 99% feral, a big Tom with the meow of a baby kitten, who always comes when I call him home to eat. The other Tom-cat we have was born in my room, but was attacked by either a dog or another cat when he was little, so now he only has three legs (and a $1000 vet bill). We named him Tri-pod, yes, I know, we're terrible. The last two are shelter kittens we saved from the pound. The (only) girl is named Stormy and the boy is Jack. Their only job is to screw stuff up. Everything from knocking glass things off the shelves to eating the toilet paper (and drinking right from the bowl) to getting stuck in the refrigerator and tearing open the trash. Last week they managed to spread dirty diapers from the back porch to the side gate. Yeah, guess who had to clean that mess up.
