What Pet Choice Says About You
Dear Reader,
Almost 37% of American households are firmly in the dog lover camp; 32% are cat owners and lovers.
According to 2007 data from the American Veterinary Medical Association the cat population is 82 million felines, while the dog population tops out at 72 million. Experts believe the larger numbers of cats are the result of households owning more than one.
A team of researchers at the University of Texas at Austin has now tried to answer the question on what makes cat lovers and dog lovers different.
They posted an online questionnaire as part of a larger study on personality known as the Gosling-Potter Internet Personality Project, and about 4,500 people answered questions that were designed to measure personality in five areas - openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism.
The subjects also indicated whether they considered themselves to be dog people, cat people, both or neither. No data was collected on which of these pets, if any, the subjects actually owned.
It turns out that dog people tended to be more social and outgoing and scored much higher on extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness; lower on neuroticism and openness than cat people.
Cat people were more neurotic but also creative, philosophical or nontraditional. These effects seemed to hold regardless of gender, working for both men and women.
"Once you know the findings, it kind of falls into place," says psychologist Sam Gosling of the University of Texas. "You think, of course, agreeableness and extraversion - dogs are companionable, they hang out, they like to be with you, they like your company, whereas cats like it for as long as they want it, and then they're off."
Of course the findings are generalizations and certainly don't apply to everyone. Earlier research has shown that often the type of animal you were raised with is the animal you're drawn to in adulthood.
One past study even found that the animal you like is the one your grandparents owned and lived with. The results of this latest study might help you choose the right pet based on your personality, and could also be helpful in terms of pet therapy.

What Pet Choice Says About You Continued...
Beyond personality characteristics, we may have physical features in common with the animals we own or prefer. A study by Stanley Coren of the University of British Columbia found that women with long hair liked Springer spaniels and beagles, and these breeds have long ears.
Short haired women liked the short eared basenjis and huskies.
Another study by Michael Roy and Nicholas Christenfeld found that subjects could match pictures of owners and their purebred dogs about 67% of the time. There was no relationship between how long the owners had had the animals, and how alike they looked. This suggests that people chose a dog that looked like them, rather than growing to look like the dogs over time.
Both studies are part of the book Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat: Why it is So Hard to Think Straight About Animals written by Hal Herzog, a professor of psychology at Western Carolina University.
Herzog believes there are other reasons why a cat person would choose a dog, or a dog person might own a cat. Allergies, lifestyle factors and space for the animal all come into play.
The cat vs. dog people study will appear in the September 2010 issue of the journal Anthrozoos. The field of anthrozoology is the study of how people and animals relate to each other and has only recently gotten more attention.
To your good health,
