Now why is it that some people like cats better than dogs? Are they just cooler? Better looking? Well of course All of us here on Cathug know why Cats are better than dogs. There prettier for one, cleaner and more intelligent. They have many more skills such as jumping 7 times the height of their tails, they can run over 50 km/h (30mph, which is as much as a human) ohh and lets see a god climb a tree as well. Cats always know when to cuddle up to you and make sure you become covered in their lovely fur. What better way to show off than letting their human look like them?
We always must take care o or feline friends as well if we want to keep them as our loving companions for as long as possible, things like chocolate and Tylenol and other human medications are toxic to cats. Also Cats hunting mice is not a wonderful idea as many may thing so, if your cat eats the mouse that it catches than your cat could become infected with whatever disease the mouse is carrying and commonly can get tape worms. These sort of complications can be fatale to your furry friend. By having a cat and enjoying it you may also live longer, It has been established that people who own pets live longer, have less stress, and have fewer heart attacks.

The gene in cats that causes the orange coat color is sexed linked, and is on the X sex chromosome. This gene may display orange or black. Thus, as female cat with two X chromosomes may have orange and black colors in its coat. A male, with only one X chromosome, can have only orange or black, not both.

Why do you ask? Lets see...

A cat's brain is more similar to a human's brain than that of a dog. (Explains their superior intelligence!)

Cats have about 100 different vocalization sounds. In comparison, dogs have about 10. (That’s 90 more ways to say I love you, or more likely, give me food!)

A cat can jump five times as high as it is tall.

A cat's hearing rates as one of the top in the animal kingdom (of course they may choose not to hear some sounds). Cats can hear sounds as high-pitched as 65 kHz; a human's hearing stops at just 20 kHz. A cat can hear a can opener from over a mile away (just kidding about the can opener, but it does seem that way).
