I'm a cat lover
If I could own a dog or a cat, I would definitely say a cat.
It doesn't mean that I don't like dogs; I agree that dogs are smarter because they can learn some tricks, such as catching a frisbee in their mouth, and also they are rather more loyal to their owners.
However, cats feel closer to me because I used to have a cat when I was a child.
He followed after me and meowed when he wanted food, and sometimes he crept into my coverlet in winter.
I think cats require less care than dogs, as you don't need to take cats out for walks.
I often watch cat movies on YouTube, which makes me want to have a cat.
