I have had dogs all of my life. Currently I have Angel and Daisy. Angel is a bassett/lab mix. She is about 12 years old. And Daisy, a poodle, 5 years old. I love them and good to have around.

My son is four and doesn't play with them much. But he seems to love cats. I had a cat when I grew up and had a couple once when I was on my own. We visited Petco today, and Andrew just loves looking at the cats there that are for adoption. I am thinking that maybe it is time to get a cat for him to enjoy. But I have told him that in the past that we weren't getting anymore animals until the dogs are gone.

Those of you that have cats, do you prefer female or male? I have always loved female dogs more then males. Just curious about the cats.

I have one of each.

I've had both. The boys seem to be more docile than the girls.

I have always found (fixed) male cats have much more personality.

I have 7 cats, 3 males and 4 females. Males always seemed to have more a loving "lap" nature than the females.
Females are loving to, just more independant like the human female population!!!!!!!! lol

i've only had males and always had them fixed when very young, they are extremely loving

I prefer female (fixed). We do very well with them. We keep our cats indoors and they've always been healthy and avoided fights with other animals, injuries, catching critters and bringing them indoors, etc. We did have one male (fixed) but at about age 5 he decided to start to spray his territory indoors, not good.
