Same here, plus dogs are fine with lazy days.
What? Cats have lazy days by default. No day with a dog should be lazy. Providing enrichment for a cat is so much less effort than for a dog. I say this as someone who has owned many dogs and cats and I love both.
I had a feeling someone would say this, but not all pets are the same.
I completely agree. My current cat is actually kind of a handful. But typically cats are much more chill as pets than dogs, and typical dogs require a lot more daily activity for a healthy and enriching life, so saying dogs are better because they "can have lazy days" is very disingenuous.
I would actually prefer someone dragging me from the sofa to do... whatever. I can be lazy AF. Not all the time, but man, some days...
