Do politics and pets go together?

Blue or red, cats or dogs?

So I've noticed a casual link in my life between "dog people" being conservative, and "cat people" being liberal. I thought I'd put it up for a vote.

I'm sorry if there isn't something that describes you - I'm just trying to keep it relatively simple to prove or disprove my basic premise.

I'm a cat person, and a liberal. I like dogs well enough, I just prefer cats for myself.

I also agree with you that there is a trend. When I was younger & had more conservative views. I hated cats. Now I love them. Conservatives/republicans want things their way. Dogs are more trainalble. Cats are too independant for them.

Cats rule Dogs drool!
 
First time ever we agree on something, I think. I like both.

Actually I have 2 fat cats. The big one... (when we met) used to hate cats & said he would NEVER have them in his house again. That was when he was a republican. LOL

BTW can anyone tell if there pet has a political stance?
 
Hmmm.. No option for bird lovers??



The biggest dorks in the world.. You should see them play!!


My daughter has a green cheeked conure. Adorable, funny, cuddly and just plain sweet (most of the time anyway..lol)
 
I love the way the bird looks at the camera like "privacy please" No option for bird lovers, horse, turtle lovers? lol I'm thinking it's devided amungst cats & dogs being that they are the most popular & different in personalities/temperment. BTW it was very enjoyable thinking back how my control freak/republican Xhusband would try to control horses.
 
I believe that cats are smarter than dogs. "conservatives" like to bully creatures who are "not too bright" Dogs can be easily intimidated by a master. CONservatives love to be "the master"

Cats are problem solvers! Can a dog do this?
 
I lean left and I favor dogs, but I do love cats as well. And my favorite dogs are chows, who can be very cat-like, clean and aloof. It's like having a giant cat that guards your house. ;)

Most of my friends are cat people. I saw a study once that said people who dislike cats tend not to like people they can't dominate and control, and I've found this to be true over the years. Cat lovers and cat-neutral people are great, but cat haters tend to be control freaks.
