As age-old rivalries go, dogs versus cats is paramount.  Like Superman and Lex, Caesar and Brutus, Dumbledore and Grindelwald (for some reason, no female rivalries come immediately to mind), cats and dogs duke it out on the symbolic stage every day, and they don’t even know it. So which furry friend should you choose to light up your days and smell up your couch?  Rather than go through the motions (“dogs are friendly, cats are independent,” etc. etc.), we thought we’d provide you with some telling quotes and let you decide for yourself.
