3374.0. "Morning Trivia..." by JUPITR::SCOTT (Paula Beth) Wed Feb 28 1990 11:41

    According to WZOU, 94.5, and a survey by PACKAGED FACTS,
    cats have become the most popular pet in America.  The feline 
    population has increased 32% since 1982, while the canine 
    population has increased a mere 4%.

3374.2Cats are #1YODA::SOULARDI love cats!Wed Feb 28 1990 19:0714
    I like cats the BEST!  My parents had cats before I was born, and they
    have two now.  We always had a cat while I was growing up.  We only
    had one dog. The dog use to let the cat get away with murder!  They
    wer so cute!.
    
    Now that I'm married, we have 3 cats.  Kitty Lee [5], Jazmyn and 
    Sassafrass [3]. (All boys)  We did have a 1 year old, Pepper, but
    we gave him to my parents because Jazmyn and Sass kept hitting
    him around.  He's been living with my parents and their cat,
    Spookie [3 - who is Jazmyn and Sass's brother] since Christmas.
    They get along excellent and it's hard to tell them apart because
    they are both all black.

3374.3Feline Popularity has grown in UK too!COMICS::WARNESCapitulation in the face of defeat.Fri Mar 02 1990 10:3711
    This upsurge in interest in cats in the US has also been reflected in
    the UK. A few weeks ago, a vet appeared on TV and one of the things he
    was saying was that for the first time in a long career, he was dealing
    with more cats than dogs.
    
    I like dogs as well as cats, but the latter are much more independant
    and appropriate to my lifestyle (ie: away for the odd 24-48 hrs).
