I am a cat person
Yep, that’s right, a cat person…I have never liked dogs. Well, I have not liked dogs since my first puppy, Muffin when I was three. They drool, they bark loudly, they stink and the sniff everything…which I find very annoying. Cat’s are low maintenance and cool. They just sort of mind their own business, eat, sleep and occasionally they might play a bit. So why am I writing a small essay on the characteristics of cat and dog owners? Because after almost eight years of “discussion” my husband finally got a dog.
Her name is Lexie. She is a dachshund mix and we rescued her from the “gas chamber” just days before her certain death. (insert tiny violins here) I have to say, she is the cutest dog… and she has “puppy-eyed” her way into my heart. I am smitten with a dog… and I can not believe it. How about you, are you a cat person or a dog person?

I am a dog person with a fondness for cats, who has recently adopted a cat with the personality of a dog and an unhealthy fondness for the resident hamster and fish.
