10. Republicans are still able to hold jobs and become somewhat productive
Of course, that could be just because they have prehensile thumbs. To tell you the truth I haven't given it much thought.

In winter, who is outside trying to tinkle in sub zero weather, and who is inside sitting on the heating grate?

21. To be fair, they only do that ...

... because humans are so very insistent about it. My dogs usually have to be forcibly inserted into coats and dragged out the door when it gets cold.

9. Dogs vs cats as bedroom companions:
Dogs will leap up barking at 2AM to let you know the refrigerator compressor kicked on while while cats will merely stab your feet to let you know your entering their personal space.

Cats will sleep on your face while a dog will serve as an alarm clock by sitting on the bed and vigorously scratching, thereby shaking the bed to wake you gently. Too bad that dogs wake up 45 minutes before you want to.

15. My dog would drag the litter box...
from the hardwood floor onto the carpet, then dump the contents, eat them, and pee all over it. He really had issues (a badly abused stray when we found him).

No more cats (I'm allergic). I don't care for them either. They're cute and all, but I have no connection to them whatever.

17. Dogs will drag your shoes off somewhere and try to polish them for you.
Of course, being dogs, they tend to forget what they were doing and start chewing on the shoes instead.......

18. They clean up their own vomit too.
Or that of another dog. That's pretty handy as long as I'm far far far far far far away.

19. That's true! And while a cat will sit on your bed and hurk up a hair ball
on the spread, a dog will hop off and go out into the hall. True, he does it because he doesn't want to share, but as long as I don't have to clean it up....

22. And another thing, what with their farting, particular and persistant grooming habits,
and typical method of greeting, a dog can make any human male seem like a perfect gentleman!
