Title: Who is smarter?....Cats or dogs?
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 11, 2007, 07:25:19 PM
Lots of debate about this topic over the years...Which specie do you believe possess more intellect? I actually think they're on about the same level (depending on the type of dog/cat), but are smart in different ways. Overall, cats are closer to humans in behavior, so I have to go with cats...I've seen some dogs that are fuckin geniuses though...What do you think?

Then again, you have to have a good attention span to read a novel

They both have their moments.  Cats can shit in toilets.  Dogs can learn 300 commands in different languages.

i'm gonna say dogs, cats make me think they might be clever because they are all about their own pleasure and wants, but dogs actually fucking respond/react when I talk to them, do tricks and have bigger heads.

When I look at my own pets - my cat is annoying, she has very little spacial literacy and she's so egotistical she often gets ignored. My dog knows a lot of words and has a great sense of emotion and a little insight. Dog easily takes this imo.

Oh mister genius has done research.


I go with cats since they are really stronger in survival skills then dogs, that gotta be connected with their brain capabilities no doubt.

You can get cats to respond...They just have more pride.

In general, cats are smarter.

But there's certain types of dogs that will outsmart any cat or any dog, e.g. the types of dogs police train up to catch drugs, alcohol, cigarettes (even bootleg CD's now, lol), search in avalanches, catch criminals, and the dogs trained to lead the blind.

dogs, but cats probably have better instincts.

a dog is a mans best friend, there was a case here of a dog protecting a bunch of kids from some pit bulls, the dog got killed but showed no fear. loyal to the end.

You guys need to look up "cat intelligence" on wikipedia...

Cats' learning abilities are aided by their good memory. Researchers Norman Maier and Theodore C. Schneirla reportedly found cats to have long-term spatial recall of at least 16 hours, as compared to no more than five minutes in dogs.
