Are dog people and cat people really all that different? A report from Rover.com® reveals fascinating differences (and surprising similarities) between families of Fido or Fluffy.
Rover’s report, “The Secret Lives of Cat People and Dog People,” investigates how having a cat, a dog, or both affects humans and the relationships we cultivate with our pets.
So, what does this all mean? Read on to find out more differences (and similarities) between dog people and cat people!
In the U.S., 60% of households have a dog and 47% have a cat. While these numbers have remained relatively constant in recent years, especially through the Covid pandemic, the pet economy has exploded.
Do you consider yourself a dog person or a cat person? Regardless of which species you identify with most, there are some interesting findings in The Secret Lives of Cat People and Dog People report.
The report, which includes responses from more than 1,000 pet owners across the country, found that human-dog and human-cat relationships are different but equally devoted.
Though there are some key differences between dog people and cat people, both groups of pet owners share similar characteristics and behaviors. For example, both groups spend around the same amount of time cuddling with their pets and talking to them. Additionally, the majority of cat and dog people don’t mind when their furry friends steal their spot on the couch or bed.
Though there are some key differences, at the end of the day, both dog people and cat people share a lot of commonalities. So, whether you’re a dog person or a cat person, you can rest assured that you’re not alone in your love for your furry friend!
