My Opinion and Experience I think it is just hard to understand main points that people may have through writing. Sometimes we get caught up in one sentence and miss the main point. I think that this just got out of hand and the original posts were not meant to offend.
I have 4 cats. I have rescued all as kittens from my neighborhood, they were all abandoned runts. I bottled fed some of them and nursed a couple back from the brink of death. I am lucky to have 2 cats that are affectionate cats, and two very independent cats, I love them for their differences.
I love them all dearly and have spoiled them from day one and all though they do love attention they do not vocalize this need. Dogs and cats are different, cats will come up to you and calmly nudge you or softly meow for attention, and dogs get more excited. I have had my Yorkie for a little over a month now and he is a handful! My cats, even though sick and young, were easier to tend too! I have to agree that Yorkies need more attention then cats, and are very different in nature and you should embrace that because it is such a gift!
I love them all (Cat or Dog) equally, BUT, they all have different attention and affection needs.
I hope that helps!
