MEET DENNIS THE CAT

There’s dog people, and then there’s cat people. Your choice of pet could reveal hidden parts of your character that you wouldn’t  disclose to your best friend.

Dogs are commonly described as ‘best friends’ – ever reliable, ready at a moment to follow you and, no matter what, a dog will never leave you. Cats, on the other hand, are the embodiment of selfishness, arrogance, and a freedom that can never be restrained.

John and Jo’s house is run by Dennis, their cat. A silent witness to their lives, Dennis becomes vocal at a specific time of day: fifteen minutes before feeding time. If you own a cat, you know what I mean. That sensation of eyes boring into the back of your head, that silent, judgemental stare, questioning your ability to carry out the simplest tasks, like opening a can and pouring the contents into a bowl… this is the daily experience of every cat owner. Or perhaps it would be more correct to say ‘cat servant’. And who can fail to be baffled by the disdain and condescension with which Tiddles sniffs the food and then walks away, tail up and nose in the air?

If you can relate to this experience, then you can certainly connect with John and Jo. If you’re more of a dog person, well… what can I say? Enjoy the hardship of being at the end of a clawed paw.

If you’re undecided on the matter and find it difficult to choose between cat and dog, here’s a test:
