Dogs Are Republican - Cats Are Democrat

DOGS ARE REPUBLICAN - CATS ARE DEMOCRAT

Cats are obviously Democrat.

They live in an urban setting,

they prefer to stay close to home,

and are touchy feely while petting.

Dogs are Republican and far more rural,

they are disciplined and obedient.

They can be natural leaders

but trade long-term for what is expedient.

Dogs love adventure, and are tougher on crime,

while felines prefer staying at home.

Dogs stick their noses into everyone’s business

and redistrict territory as they roam.

Cats live and let live, are socially open,

and are more likely to experiment with herbs.

Left to themselves, dogs destroy the place,

then when one barks, they all get disturbed.

Dogs worship at the feet of a higher power

cats seemingly could not care less.

While dogs seek to serve obsequiously

cats are a good deal harder to impress.

Cats do not follow, they do not lead

sometimes they just get in the way.

Dogs do not demand entitlement

they’re convinced they will each have their day.

So while some have nothing but love for their dog,

and others prefer to idealize the cat,

it is clear that canines are all Republicans

and felines are, as a whole, Democrat.
