I just wanted to reiterate this after a week of doggie madness where dogs took over completely at work.
We (I say we, it was really the kids from Y5) hosted a dog show on the school field for a fundraising event to support their business idea for Enterprise week.
I expected dogs. That’s fine. But what I didn’t expect was this urge to stroke and pet them, even go all gooey over them, talking in that sing song voice I usually reserve for my cat! (Or any cat actually because they’re so cute).
There were some really beautiful dogs and I couldn’t resist snapping away as they competed in:
Waggiest tail
Sparkliest eyes
Dog looking most like its owner
Dog the judges would most like to take home
I wish I could add some of the pics but they’re all at work.
Hold on.
Doing what cats do best |
I’m a cat person.
Always have been.
Always will be.
There’s something very therapeutic in stroking its silky fur, listening to the purr. My cat, Indi, is a right old chatterbox and makes some weird but funny sounds when he looks out at the birds in the garden.
However, my Hubby suggests I was a dog in a past life because of my love of walks and the fact dogs like me! Whenever we’re out, they always come up to me without encouragement. He reckons I’m secretly a dog person.
I’m a cat person. I’m a cat person. I’m a cat person.

People were convincing me to become a dog person in my Facebook Post with their really cute pics of doggies. I tried to balance it out with cat pics so it's quite a cute, feel good thread. And a suggestion was made in the post that you could be both a cat person and a dog person.
I still regard myself as a cat person.
Which are you; dog person or cat person or can you be both?

Cats. all the way. I love dogs, but only other people's--that means they do the feed, the walk, the managing, and I get to go home dogless. Ive had dogs, but my first love always is the Cat.
ReplyDeleteYay! My first love too. Other people's dogs are fine, I don't even mind going out on walks with them. As long as ,y home is dogless. xx
DeleteI think it's ok to be a cat person, but like dogs. :) What a great idea to have a dog show at school. I bet the children loved it.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great idea and yes, the children loved it. There's talk of hosting another one in the near future as a great fundraiser because of its success. x
DeleteI prefer cats. They cook more quickly and are generally far more tender than dogs.
ReplyDeleteLol, there's always one. I thought you'd prefer dogs as more meat on their bones. ;-)
DeleteHave fun with your cats...forever!
ReplyDeleteMy Six Words
Whoo-hoo! This comment has me smiling lots. x
DeleteHard to resist a waggiest tail :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, yes I guess it can be. x
DeleteI love both dogs and cats but cats are easier to take care of.
ReplyDeleteGood point. xx
Deletecat person- suits me to a tee! Dogs are nice....other peoples dogs!
ReplyDeleteYou sound like me! xx
DeleteMy younger self, dog. Now pretty evenly split. Love the idea of a dog show.
ReplyDeleteAw, so a dog and cat person. That's kinda cute. xx
DeleteI have catkids and would have a dog if I wasn't so lazy.
ReplyDeleteHaha, dogs are so high maintenance lol. x
DeleteI'm a Just About Everything Animal Person. I have dogs, chickens and ducks...and used to have a cat. I miss my cat. She got out while my ex-husband was watching the kids and we haven't seen her in 2 months. :/ I still hope she returns. She's a great cuddler in the winter!
ReplyDeleteOh no! That's so sad! I hope she returns too; it's not unheard of for cats to reappear after a long time away. Fingers crossed. x
