In the past couple of years, dogs have been on the rise in Lebanon. Most of the time it seems like people treat them more like an accessory, which is extremely sad because dogs are very sweet and loyal.

Even though I like dogs from afar, I still prefer cats. Cats would never let you treat them like an accessory. If anything, they'll force you to get your act together around them.

1. One of the reasons why we prefer cats is because they don't go around grossly humping everything around them like uncontrollable rabbits.

When they do go through with it, they do it in a shameless and hilarious way.

2. Cats don't poop at every corner of your house or street. They bring you presents instead...

We don't have to clean up after they poop, or leave it there for other people to step on the way most Lebanese do with their dogs.

3. Cats follow their dreams

9. They know when you've been with other animals and they don't like it

10. But they also don't like it when you're clingy and dependent

Ugh! Have some dignity!

11. They know what you go through because they go through the same thing
