Talk:Cat people and dog people

Term 'Dog and cat person

In animal advocacy the term 'dog and cat person' refers to advocates for specific animals and 'pet issues' in the context of, or in lieu of, advocating broadly and systemically for all animals, which would be required for an animal rights consciousness and effort. Typically, 'dog and cat persons' are seen as 'animal welfarists' who can recruited for 'single-issue campaigns' and, while they may support a long view of abolitionism in the array of concerns of, for, and about nonhuman persons, they are believed to usually not be consistent abolitionists. That nuance or use is 'orthogonal to' the use of similar terms to reflect preferences for those who like one type of animal more than others (e.g. a donkey person or an elephant person).

• Animal protectionism, the view favors incremental change in pursuit of non-human animal interests
• Animal rights, the idea that non-human animals are entitled to the possession of their own lives
• Animal rights movement, advocacy for the idea of animal rights
• Animal welfare, support for the well-being of animals

Is there room in this article to 'disambiguate' or clarify? MaynardClark (talk) 18:40, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Subjectivism

Are there any scientific point of view in the whole article? I think this was written by a self labelled "cat person"... The article form the HP (https://www.huffpost.com/entry/cat-people-dog-people-intelligence_n_5412245) says, for example, that cats are more inteligent than dogs, but if you follow the link that the HP put (https://www.livescience.com/13884-kitty-kitty-10-facts-cat-lovers.html) it doesn't make that statement at all... This is a very poor wikipedia's article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.177.216.86 (talk) 17:46, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
