People keep cats and birds inside and have to clean up the filth.

What's the difference??

With cats and birds, you don't have to stand there and wait while they do it. And it's not nearly as voluminous. But you're right; I don't understand the appeal of keeping cats and birds either (and I find keeping birds that are capable of flight caged to be a bit cruel). At least birds sing and fish are nice to look at. I will admit that dogs are friendly and loyal, whereas cats give off an arrogant vibe.

** Don't get me wrong, I don't hate dogs or anything. I think they can be very helpful animals. I just don't get this whole deal of keeping them in the house and pampering them.
