It was a fun court - not quite a kangaroo court - and well and impartially judged. Also impossible to truly quantify. I like ‘em both, have had both. And we’ve always had loving pets who brought us joy. Right now, we have a cat who (yes, he’s a who), in spite of their reputation as cool 😎, is snuggled up next to me, follows me everywhere, and makes me laugh. A requirement for any of my close companions.
As I am keen for cats to win, I would like to point out although cats and their realtives create some carnage, many deaths of mammals and other creatures dogs and their relatives are responsible for. I mean, how many sheep are killed by wolves every year? One could also argue that wolves kill bigger mammals (than cats) - thus creating bigger carnage?

A great read as usual, thank you Justin!
