Psychologists have shown that women are usually looking for
the “perfect mate” when they are considering men as potential
partners. It appears that when choosing and bonding with dogs,
women are similarly looking for the “perfect companion.” It is
interesting that when describing their relationship to their dogs,
women often compare it to their relationship with men—and
men often come up on the short end of that assessment.more |

The Hatfields and the McCoys. Rome and Carthage. The Capulets and the Montagues. Enemies all, never to know a moment’s peace. To that list, history must certainly add cats and dogs.
Or must it? Just what is it about this infamous rivalry that fuels such antagonism?
Time and evolution, it would seem. Cats and dogs weren’t always separate creatures; they emerged out of the dim past, over 40 million years ago, from prototypical carnivores known as miacids, who eventually split into felids and canids, or the branches of the evolutionary tree we now recognize as cats and dogs.more |
