personally I only like huskies as dog races but I love pretty much all cats. My parents don't want any pets at home because of our religion but I'd really want a few cats and dogs when I get to live on my own. To me there's no better company than an animals
I have owned a dog for 5 years. he wants a lot of responsibility, it has become very tiring to take him outside every day. My advice is if you don't have a house with a garden, it makes more sense to have a cat.
