Cats and dogs are the same species

I used to think that cats were female and dogs were male. It made sense somehow at the time because for awhile I lived in an all female household and we had cats, but no dogs. And I met my grandfather's friend and he had a bunch of dogs, but no cats. makes sense right? ;)

when i was little, i used to think that all cats were girls and all dogs were boys, and that they had babies: the baby girls were cats, and baby boys were dogs. i had a friend (who i didn't know then) who used to think so too!

I used to believe that cats were all female, and dogs were all male and that the two species mated

As a child, I thought that all dogs were 'boys' and all cats were 'girls', and when they got married and had children, they would have a mixture of puppies and kittens.

Unclear on the concept

My sister and I thought cats and dogs were the same animal, the dogs were male and the cats were female.

That cats were female and dogs were male... cause older guys at school used to chase girls all the time - just like our cat and dog :)

I used to believe that dogs were boys, and cats were girls.

Juliet

I believed cats were girls and dogs were boys. I still, to this day, call cats she, and dogs he.

Rainbow

I used to believe that all dogs were male and all cats were female. When they mated (1 dog w/ 1 cat), they would either have a boy (puppy) or a girl (kitten).

I used to believe that cats were girls and dogs were boys. When I discovered that you needed one of each to make babies, I had visions of mummy cats with mixed litters of kittens and puppies.
