Will we ever come to an agreement on which pet is the pet? Probably not. At least we have these entertaining tweets to sit through.
Just a little secret though, we actually know which pet is the best pet and we'll share that little secret with you...
Both. Both are the best. And if you have a dog AND a cat in your household, you probably came to that realization quite some time ago!
Enjoy these relatable tweets!
Meet Helper Dog Nala, she helps her handler Megan with a variety of different things! Megan wrote in an Instagram post that she suffers from "autism, PTSD, severe medication resistant depression, and many other conditions." She continues, "I also tend to get very overloaded and overwhelmed very easily. Nala works is trained to do crowd control, blocking, respond to panic episodes, do DPT, and finding people, to mention a few."
Nala is one of the goodest girls there is! Not only is she a wonderful service dog, she has a super cuddly personality and a big fan of Donald Duck!
Megan writes in another Instagram post, "Nala spends a lot of her time helping me at Disney. It truly is my happy place! When we're at Disney, I ALWAYS let Nala interact with the characters. She LOVES people but does not let that get in the way of her job. That being said, I also don't want to deprive her from something she enjoys so much."
It is simply impossible not to fall in love with Nala, no Disney cast member could resist her charm either!
Here are some pics of Nala with various Disney cast members and her viral moment with her hero -- Donald Duck!
Every year, September 23 is designated National Dogs in Politics Day, which is also known as Checkers Day. Why Checkers? Because this day is the anniversary of a very famous pre-presidential Richard Nixon speech that introduced America to the best-known presidential dog to never have lived in the white house.

And she did! The love we have for our pets can sometimes astound us!
Meet Carole King of Deer Park, Washington, who lost her beloved 7-year-old border collie named Katie.
It happened on July 20th, when Carole, her husband, and Katie, traveled to Flathead County for a four-day getaway. The couple had gone out to dinner and left Katie in their hotel room, and when they returned Katie was nowhere to be found.
King told the Daily Inter Lake that she was devastated and sick to her stomach. She frantically searched her room for her Katie, looking for any signs of her beloved canine before rushing to the front desk in hopes Katie was still somewhere in the building.
King said, "I said to the clerk, 'please tell me you have my dog.' The clerk says 'no, she left about 4, 4 1/2 hours ago,' "
Unfortunately, the moment those automatic doors opened, Katie ran out without a trace.
The devastated couple spent days that soon turned into weeks looking for Katie.
Carole King worked as a postal worker but quit in order to continue her search and dedicate all her time to it.
The news about Katie was beginning to spread online and in doing so, multiple Facebook pages popped up, filled with users who were offering words of encouragement and sharing and information about recent sightings that could help bring Katie home.
King hung up 500 flyers around the county, searching into the night and gone as far as setting up a few game cameras in spots where Katie had been spotted.
"I never gave up. I never lost hope," said King.
On September 15th, 57 days later, King got a call in the early morning from a man in the Country Estates neighborhood. He told her there was a dog in his backyard that matched the description of Katie. It just so happened that the day before the call, King and a friend were in that very neighborhood posting flyers around.
King called up that same friend for help as they rushed out to find Katie but by the time they arrived, the dog was already gone.
The pair decided to search the neighborhood again with no luck in sight. As they decide to return back home, a woman called out to King, "As the lady was walking back, she points over to the tree where it's real dark and says, 'Is that your dog?'" King said. "And I turn and it's Katie."
Heart skipping a beat and beyond excited, King called out to her beloved dog, "Katie. Katie girl!"
Katie came running over.
"I just bear-hugged her; I wasn't going to let her go," King recalled. "Tears were flying, we were screaming, everybody is high-fiving, hugging each other. People are stopping in their vehicles, getting out and hugging us. I think the whole neighborhood knew that we found her."
Immediately from there, King took Katie to a local emergency vet clinic where King learned that she had lost 12 pounds, was severely dehydrated and in starvation mode.
Even though Katie was skin and bones, she is in good spirits and expected to make a full recovery.
Congratulations to the King's who never gave up hope! Katie is lucky to have you!

A 6-year-old boy once said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good Life - - like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?' Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."
That line has always stuck with us. It's so well put and feels so true. Dogs are born pure and are the embodiment of happiness, joy and love -- everything we humans should be. We can learn so much from them.
These snaps are for all the good bois and girls out there, we love you!
In case you forgot, here are 26 tweets to remind you of the pure love and magic of dogs and having dogs in our lives. May we never forget just how truly special they are and all the goodness they bring into our lives!

We found your next Netflix 'must watch'! There's a new documentary on Netflix that follows the lives of 5 puppies (squeal!) training into the goodest bois there are -- guide dogs!
If all dogs are good (which they are), then guide dogs are the absolute best of the best!
This heartwarming doc is called Pick Of The Litter and Twitter users are gushing about how wholesome and beautiful it is. From the moment these pups are born, they begin their quest to become guide dogs for the blind, the ultimate K9 career.
But it's not easy work, as these pups will find out! "The stakes are high and not every dog can make the cut. Only the best of the best. The pick of the litter," per the film's official synopsis.
We know what we're watching later! But to be on the safe side, it couldn't hurt to have some tissues handle -- you know, because of the overwhelming cuteness.
Delivery! Fresh hot doggo memes at your service! So take a moment to sit back and relax, and enjoy all the good bois and girls this list has to offer! And just in case you're having a ruff day and need an extra lift, check out these doggo memes -- that should cure just about anything.
Well, there's something you don't see every day! Sally and Jon Watkinson, from Melbourne, Australia, found a baby possum nested in their Puli dog's fur, after going out on a walk. The possum decided to hitch a lift on her dog's back, for unknown reasons, but it sure makes a bizarre and funny story to tell!
In their viral Facebook post, they mentioned that their dog barely noticed the possum was there. It was totally cool, calm and collected and wasn't barking frantically or showing any other signs of annoyance.
Yet the strangest part of this story has yet to come... The couple went to the vet with their dog and possum attached and got that taken care of...but the exact same thing happened again the very next day! A new baby possum attached to their dog's back, and they wrote that the sight, "almost made the vet nurse fall off her chair."
Pretty strange, huh?
The only difference was that the newest baby possum was a baby male and not a female like the one the day before.
