Dogs and cats as pets

Many people in the world have pets. Some people prefer to have dogs and some prefer to have cats. Some people have both dogs and cats. But dogs and cats are very different pets.

First of all, dogs are very messy. One has to clean up animal hair or accidents they have whereas cats are very tidy and don't need any care. When one keeps a dog in a house, there is also a smell in the apartment. Dogs are very dirty and nuisance. But cats are very neat and don’t mess a lot.

Secondly, dogs require much attention. One has to be always around either to walk the dog or simply feed it. Also, one is responsible for the safety of all the people while walking with a dog in the street. But cats are very domestic pets and don’t need to go outside. In comparison with dogs, cats are very smart and don’t represent a danger to humans.

Finally, dogs are very expensive to keep. One should pay much money for visits to the veterinarian. And since dogs are bigger than cats, one should also buy more pet food and supplies for the dog. However, cats are smaller and don’t need to eat as much as dogs do.

To conclude, both cats and dogs can keep a great company. But, in my opinion, having a cat seems to be the right choice.
