Video Will Have You Believe That Cats Are Better Than Dogs

Pet loyalists have tend to lean one way or the other with their feeling on cats and dogs. Sure, it depends on the animal, but those species-centric personality quirks tend to leave us with some preference one way or another.

So BuzzFeed and America's Funniest Home Videos teamed up to bring us a compilation of hilarious standoffs between the two to tally who got the last laugh. (Spoiler alert: This one's an homage to the brilliance of our feline overlords). Because whether we want to admit it or not, it's generally our cats who're left standing in a battle of wills.

Their first example, for instance, is that classic nod to self-sufficiency. Let's be honest, when a cat's sleep cycle is 12-16 hours daily, he's going to need a lot less attention than our canine besties. Also for better or worse, they don't seem to think a think of size. They'll stand up to even the largest dogs — dominating spaces and calling all shots. And, as the video points out, they're great at amusing themselves — in fact, they'd probably prefer to play by alone anyway. So let's hear it for our manipulative cats, because we all know that we love them in spite of it.
