I will impress you with a rant about why cats are misunderstood.
Cats are widely known as mean, and useless to many people. Yes it may be true that cats can be difficult to get along with sometimes, but you cannot necessarily blame them. Cats are less domesticated as dogs, it is just a fact. Yes, some dog and cat breeds may vary in domestication, but in reality cats are more feral. Cats also don't "Need" love or a pack like dogs do. Dogs are pack animals, and cats aren't. My point is, it takes effort to get along with a cat or get it to love you. Sure, if you give it food and water you'll get along, but in order to develop a bond with your cat, you need to be patient and persistent. Not pulling-your-cats-tail persistent, but keep loving your cat even if it claws at you or hisses. If you adopt a cat when it is young it's easier, but when a cat is older sometimes they are hard to get along with. Since it takes effort to get to a point where your cat loves you, a lot of people just don't like them as much. I used to hate cats, but I realized that if you treat them well, almost any cat will love you if you're consistent. I love dogs too, but I sympathize with cats more because there are many more cats without homes. I'm not saying cats are better than dogs, they are just misunderstood more often than dogs are. This is also my personal opinion, so don't get angry XD
Fun-Fact: Cats were worshiped in Egypt, where they were first domesticated. Egyptians would have the cats catch mice and other pests that ate their grain and food.
