Cats and dogs are the same species

When I was a little girl, I believed that all cats were girls and all dogs were boys. :)

I used to believe that all cats were girls, and all dogs were boys. The two would get together and make girl cat babies and boy dog babies. I have no idea where this came from other than I thought cats were more feminine and dogs were more masculine.

This is actually a friend of mine. Somehow or another as a child she came to the belief that all dogs were boys (male) and all cats were girls (female). Even after a sexual education class she never questioned this until the age of 19 when someone asked her how they could reproduce if each species had just one sex.

When I was a little girl I thought that dogs and cats could breed together, although I have never seen that. One day, I asked my mother what animal it was. She laughed and replied that it was not possible. It made me sad because it would have created an interesting animal!

when i was a child i thought that the dogs and cats can talk with people.And also, that the cats were female and the dogs male.
Now i have two cats and four dogs.

When I was young I thought all dogs were the boys (the dads) and all cats were the girls (the mums). and they got married and had babies...

I truly thought that all dogs were male and all cats were female. I can't remember what I age I was when I realised this wasn't the case!

Meredith

I used to beleive, like cows are the females and bulls the males, that cats and dogs were the same species and cats were the females and dogs the males

Rula

I used to think that cats were female and dogs were male. Hence, they will marry each other and their offsprings were either cats or dogs. Just like a male or a female baby! :)

i used to think when i was little that cats were always female and dogs were always boys

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? ;)

I used to believe that all cats were female and all dogs were male and then when a cat had a litter it was made up of kittens and puppies...

Since most cats were smaller, 'cuter' and more colorful than dogs. I used to think that cats were actually 'girl dogs' !

I used to believe that cats and dogs were actually the same animal but a cat was the female and a dog was the male!

When I was a child, I always believed the cats were girls, and dogs were boys.

I used to believe that all dogs were boys and all cats girls. They got together and the cat had both puppies and kittens...absurd, I know.
