A PBS documentary is exploring the reasons.
I missed the premiere of "Why We Love Cats and Dogs", but Georgia Public Broadcasting (Channel 28) is showing it again this week:
Tuesday, Feb. 17 at 12 a.m.
Saturday, Feb. 21 at 4 p.m.
Here's the introduction from PBS' Web site:
"Some people are cat people, some are dog people. But regardless of which camp they fall into, most people are simply crazy about their pets. The connections people form with their cats and dogs are often the longest, strongest relationships in their lives. They are our soul mates, our best friends, sometimes even our surrogate children. What makes these creatures such key members of our families?
Perhaps it’s because our furry friends have long provided us with comfort, camaraderie, and unconditional love. Cats and dogs are our unending source of kisses, cuddles, slobber, claws, and laughs. Watch as NATURE shares the stories of pet owners and their beloved animals. From a very special dog named Jerry, to a cat that saved a man’s life, Why We Love Cats and Dogs presents a portrait of some of the most powerful and remarkable connections we experience as humans—the unbreakable bonds with our pets."
Oh, and if you think your pet is the cutest pet ever (what pet owner DOESN'T think that?), you can enter PBS' photo contest. Contest deadline is March 2. Click on the link here.
