I think I like cats more than dogs because my stepdad abused our dogs when I was young.
Do you actually own any cats?
Yes, I have two actually.
Your dad abused animals and that is not good, but why blame the animal for it? You can still have both cats and dogs, just take better care of them than he did.
I just don't think I like dogs enough to get one. I love cats though and they're easy for me to care for.
It's really unfortunate that your stepdad affected how much you like dogs but it's not wrong for you to be a cat person instead. Whatever pets you choose to have, just be sure to treat them properly.
