I guess Im very much both. We got a cat first and some years later a dog. The cat died a bit over a year ago and we tried to be just a dog-family. Could not do it
Last december a Maine Coon miss decided that our house would be a suitable habitat for her - we did the obvious visits to the breeder and "paying for her" but still - you cannot really own a cat
It was wonderful to witness our first cat and the dog (Finnish Laphund) trying to figure each other out and now when the dog was the one welcoming a new member to the family. Their being together is truly heart-warming to watch - brother and sister they are
