I am not sure if this belongs here or in the P&R forum.

 

My cat will not be happy to hear this and the dog will happily nod in agreement. I tend to believe they just have different personalities rather than intelligence, but one thing for sure, my life would be less joyful without them.

 

I never knew there was even a debate.

There are of dozens and dozens of things a dog can be taught to do that a cat couldn't learn in a million years.
For the life of me...I can't think of one thing a cat can do that a dog can't.
Climb a tree I suppose; thats about it.
Am I missing some?

 

Corrected it for you

This said, I am not surprised. Seems like social animals are, in general, more intelligent.

 

I trained my cat to use the toilet. Like to see a dog do that.

 

Dogs are very smart but also pretty gullible. I live with a dog and a cat and the cat has the dog wrapped around her pinky.

 

My dog uses the toilet.... when I forget to fill her water-bowl.

 

both are smarter than the average person

 

Does your like count go up if you have me on ignore?
6000 posts and you're the only one that has me on ignore. You must be a one of a kind super genius. I admire that.

 

Cat retaliation.
