Pretty simple choice. You've died and come back as a typical average house cat or dog. Which would you rather be and why?
I'd rather come back as a cat.
- You're not expected to learn tricks.
- If you're an "inside" cat, you have a litter box so you don't have to hold your bladder & rely on a human to take you for a walk.
- If you are a complete a-hole as a dog, you will get dumped off at the pound -- but if you are an a-hole as a cat, your owner chuckles lovingly and says "Oh, he's just being obnoxious. He's such a cat!". You're expected to be an a-hole as a cat! If you share any smidgen of friendship, you are considered the cat version of Nelson Mandela.
- Hell, you can be a feline psycho killer and your owner will probably pat you on your head and congratulate you when you drop another corpse on the doorstep. If you kill anything as a dog, you are put on death row & learn the term "lethal injection".
- If you're an average sized cat, you're smaller than an average sized dog so you can find more places to hide from the annoying human children.
- You're not expected to go for rides in the car, when all you want is to take (another) nap.
- You have an amazing tongue that allows you to bathe yourself. I imagine you are popular with the ladies as a bonus.
- You've got built-in night vision goggles. 8 times better than a human in the dark. So cool!
