I am very much a cat person and managed to marry a guy who is also a cat person. We have a pair of Bengals, one brown and one silver, which is a breed known for being very outgoing the "golden retriever" of cats. Dusty, my 17 lbs. silver boy plays fetch with his fuzzball and like a dog brings his favorite toys to you to play with him. Yes, he is supposed to be that big, he is not overweight. Cayenne, the 9 lbs. little brown girl doesn't play as much, but cuddles every time we sit/lay down and comes to her name. Both follow us around the house and fuss if they are not getting enough attention to suit them. They do not ever go outside because the vet recommends not giving Bengals a feline Leukemia shot. Both get regular baths for the sake of my allergies. The litters were born a few hours apart to the same breeder so they think they are litter mates and act like it. At 4 years of age they are cuddled up asleep together on a dog bed near me at the moment.

I like dogs and have a very soft spot for Dingo also called Blue Heeler dogs, but prefer living with cats. My husband, however, does not like dogs at all so it will never be a possibility.
