There may never be a resolution in the age-old dog versus cat debate, but a dating website says your choice reveals some things about you.
In a survey of singles, Lavalife found nearly half of respondents (47%) would ditch a lover who didn't get along with their pet. Another survey found that 10% would consider sharing custody of a pet in the event of a breakup, and more than 60% of single men polled wouldn't kick Fido out of the bedroom even when getting intimate with a lover.
"We know that singles take their relationships with their pets just as seriously as they do with their lovers," explains spokeswoman Kim Hughes. "Now we are digging deeper to find out what our pets say about our personalities."
When assessing potential pet-loving paramours, Lavalife suggests looking at certain character traits.
People who purchase pets from a pet store tend to be more impulsive, while people who buy from a breeder are more analytical. Those who rescue pets from shelters are known to be comfortable with risk and especially compassionate.
Owners of large dogs, which typically need a lot of exercise, tend to be more active, outgoing and assertive. Owners of small dogs tend to be more detail-oriented and some may even be neat freaks.
