I've got more time for cats, as they very rarely attack a human unless provoked. How often do you see a cat on a lead in town? They don't need to be. Dogs need to be on leads, especially the larger and/or more aggressive breads, in urban areas. When was the last time a toddler was killed by a domestic cat? Cats are pretty well self sufficient unlike most dogs IMO. My dad's cats were semi-feral, caught all their own food and weren't allowed in the house. They had a cat bed in an outhouse. Dogs are very useful in certain circumstances, e.g. assistance/guide dogs and in crime prevention, but as pets can be problematic, mostly due to their owners.
Cats do kill people. They’re just good at covering their tracks and making it look like an accident.
Yes, cats do kill people but most often not deliberately, unlike some dogs. That's what I was getting at.
That's what they want you to believe.
