I'm curious what made you choose cats over dogs?

10) Cats are dangerous pets, but are not capable of doing as much
serious damage as dogs.
9) Cats are low maintenance.
8) Cats are prettier and more photogenic.
7) Cats don't jump all over me with muddy paws when I feed them
(though they do walk all over me with muddy paws when I'm in bed).
6) Cats keep the mice down.
5) Cats are softer.
4) Cats are quietly affectionate.
3) Cats purr.
2) Cats don't bark all day and all night.
1) I've never been bitten by a rabid cat, but I have by a rabid dog.

None the less, I had to get two large (~60 pound) dogs to control the
raccoons and possums that were coming through the cat flap to eat the
cats' food. The dogs are expensive and I really don't like them much,
but they do what they are here to do.
