I love animals. I love all animals. Puppies, kitties, birdies, fishies, and all the wild ones too. I like animals better than I like most people.

But Ruby Noir 😈went to the trouble of creating some prompts and this one got to me:

Dogs vs Cats as a matter of value. You may only choose one. Which is a more valuable pet and WHY. Be detailed. Explain your choice. Defend your choice not solely through personal preference but based on overall value. This has nothing to do with breed status and what they cost when purchased. Value here is not monetary. You may not insult the other animal — that will piss me off. You may only decide on a “better” option. The hardest thing about this — is creating an argument that *I* can not destroy. Good luck!
