The old cat versus dog Debate

This debate has gone for so long it must be a cliché in the pet owners’ world. My sister was consoling me the day after I had my fight with Brett when she started saying she wanted a dog.
“You should get a cat,” she said. “Then you wouldn’t need to spend so much time with his cats.”
That’s not the point, I thought. It wouldn’t be the same cat.
“I prefer dogs to cats,” continued my sister, “but if I had to get a cat I would get a kitten. I could then train it.”
“Have you ever spent time with kittens? They’re great but they crash and bang around at 3 in the morning. It’s a phase they all go through. Once they reach adulthood they spend most of the time sleeping. I prefer a cat to a kitten any day,” I said, speaking from experience.
“I could feed it earlier so it could then go to bed the same time as me,” said my sister with hope in her eyes. This is the same person who told me several months ago she didn’t like kittens as they were “funny” looking. Kitten-haters are weird.
