for me... a dog AND cat person (who is deathly allergic to cats and has never owned one and lives in a country where they reek havoc on the native wildlife), i can understand people who like cats but not dogs, but the other way around lmfao, like in my experience from talking to people who don’t like dogs, they have 9 times out of 10 had a bad experience with a dog, been bitten, been knocked over, been lunged at or had a dog go apeshit at them through a fence. people who dislike cats usually have no Actual foundation for it. like, they just don’t like the look of them or something.... Maybe they got bitten or scratched but like, you were probably fucking annoying that cat. they are so small and would for the most part rather get away from you than attack... *shrug emoji* this is all just onions and i understand if you disagree but i will ALWAYS side eye someone who is like “I HATE CATS” more than i will someone who says the same about dogs.
