ARE YOU MORE DOG OR MORE CAT? WHAT IS YOUR MOST INTIMATE PERSONALITY?

Cats and dogs have conquered a very important position within our families: they have become real family members. They shower us with their unconditional love without asking for anything.

An animal does not reject us (unless it has not had trauma), it does not criticize us, it does not pretend and it does not offend. He simply and spontaneously gives us his affection and accepts ours. With them we feel free to show ourselves as we are and we have no communication problems. We can learn a lot from them and they give us a chance to develop our empathy.

Adopting an animal is good for both our psychological and physical health. Our four-legged friend becomes a point of reference for affection, company and support in sad and difficult moments.

But what makes us prefer to adopt a cat instead of a dog? What could be the psychological meanings of this choice of ours?

Behind the preference for one or the other, our innermost emotions and feelings are hidden.

Each animal carries with it an ethological baggage that leads it to be different in habits, behavior and social life from each other. The dog is a social animal: he needs the herd and social life. The cat is lonely and independent like the dog or independently and lonely like the cat. The animal with which we have the most feeling is the mirror of who we are.

People prefer animals that behave in a way that complements their personality.

THE CAT:

If we adopt a cat, we are fascinated by its aesthetics and beauty, its elegance, its agility and its mystery. We are patient and respect the times and spaces of others. We do not like to force situations and just like we will do with our cat we wait with confidence and respect for him to come closer to share his precious time with us.

With the cat we choose an equal life, we divide the spaces, without anyone invading too much the space of others, it is like saying: "we are together because we want to be together, without constraints, each respecting the spaces of the other.

The cat, contrary to what many think, establishes a sincere and symbiotic contact with its human companion. Establish a relationship full of love. He seeks and loves his company and wishes to receive and give affection, without losing his independence.

the cat imposes his own rules, only those who have "an edge" can accept "an agreement" of this kind and can enjoy and appreciate its incomparable beauty and extreme adaptability.

He loves and does not fear loneliness. He even goes into hiding so as not to be found. He doesn't bother obeying, if you call him, he keeps doing what he needs.

And we can only accept and respect his cat nature. It is as if there is a tacit agreement between us based on freedom. Those who prefer a feline do not need to exercise dominance, impose themselves and command and they do not have a strong competitiveness.

Between us (cat and him human) a psychological affinity is created based on the mutual need for freedom and independence. We understand and understand his being moody and temperamental. He will never be a companion "on command". Impossible to control him. A free spirit cannot be imprisoned.

Cat humans are usually solitary, a little messy, creative, introspective. Mostly women, single. Those who live with a cat tend to lead a more contemplative life, more introspective, solitary and reflective, as well as having a predilection for chaos.

Those who choose a cat express a desire for affection and not for companionship.

Who has a cat is endowed with a marked intelligence, is curious, sensitive, nonconformist, open to new experiences, humoral, and with progressive ideals.

THE DOG

If we adopt a dog we are sociable and we love family. We are reliable, early risers and serious.

The relationship with the dog is more demanding in the management of its daily needs, compared to a cat (you must not take the cat out for walks, to make him do the needs or to make him have territorial enrichment).

The dog adapts to our needs and our personality. It is easy to train him, he obeys commands (The cat is refractory to any imposition).

He loves his master and accepts him as he is, his strengths and weaknesses. His life depends on and is conditioned by his human to whom he gives himself completely. The dog has immense empathy. He is able to perceive our moods and share them with us. He feels our fear and our emotions. We have a lot to learn from them.

Adopt a dog who is looking for an assiduous, present and constant company, who always wants to have a four-legged friend by his side ready to share everything: joys and sorrows. Always willing to give you love without asking for anything. A companion in complete symbiosis.

People who love dogs are outgoing, sympathetic, conscientious, vital, competitive and have conservative political views. They are also prone to being dominant, very competitive, sometimes narcissistic.
