Why Dogs are Better Than Cats by Bradley Trevor Greive
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I’m a cat lady. I’ve always loved my feline friends although I haven’t actually owned a cat for years. When I was a kid, though, I had many and loved them all!
Although I should genuinely be offended by Bradley Greive’s literary and literal screed against cats, I’m not. Why Dogs are Better Than Cats is such a heartwarming book full of the most amazing photos of both dogs and cats taken by Rachel Hale that I completely forgot that Greive’s entire point is to argue dogs are much better pets than cats. While he likens cats to animals with no soul he lets us know pointedly that dogs are the ultimate human companion with the sweetest dispositions and undying love. Of course, I completely disagree, cats have souls. Nevertheless, I love the book. The photos melted my heart and I have to admit that while Greives makes compellingly strong points, the cat lover in me will never be swayed.
Why Dogs are Better Than Cats is a perfect book for any dog lover this holiday season. They will spend hours leafing through the pages and pages of adorable photos of “man’s best friend” and then give the dog in their life an extra pat on the head and rub on the tummy.
