Your Pet and Your Personality

Researcher Sam Gosling, Ph.D. discusses a new study from the University of Texas at Austin that confirms what most of us have suspected all along – dog lovers rule. But don’t believe me, just listen to the statement made at 1:43 and the item shown directly thereafter. Gosling then struggles to accentuate the positive on behalf of cat lovers. It’s the best video ever made. *video may take three secs or so to load

    We have conducted our own study and discovered that dogs rule and cats should be chased up trees.

    We took a democratic vote and it turned out dogs=4; cat=1. This is what we refer to as a scientific study.

    I'm basically a dog person. But I also enjoy cats. And horses. And birds. And elephants. And raccoons. And…well, you get the picture.

    I like how the journalist makes a point of saying she's a dog person @ the end.

    Bwahahahaha! :)

    My humans claim that they're both dog and cat people. I know they're neurotic. I'm going to have to consider the data a little more.

    I definitely prefer the company of dogs to cats, but I am called prejudice, but I like to think of it as being selective. ;-)

    I think that walking a cat on a leash says it all.
