Totally disagree. While I generally like dogs I could never deal with owning one - you need to totally revolve your life around their pooping schedule whereas cats are independent, clean and easily litterbox-trained (or toilet trained). I like how cats are typically sassy, smart, independent (yet still affectionate and friendly), clean and clever. By contrast most dogs seem to see the entire world as something to be either crapped upon, eaten, slobbered upon or humped.

I guess I'm just more of a cat person by nature but I definitely think they are "better" pets in the sense that they're far easier to care for and can be very useful to have around (no mice or rodents in this house!). Your mileage may vary.
