Dogs, having been domesticated for a longer period, have successfully adapted to human ways, making them highly sociable and capable of following rules. When measuring intelligence based on sociability and obedience, dogs generally surpass cats.

It’s worth noting that cats have a smaller number of neurons in their cortexes, regardless of size, which suggests they may have lower cognitive capabilities compared to dogs.

While data may indicate that dogs hold an advantage, there are specific tests where cats can excel, showcasing their unique abilities despite dogs’ domestication advantage.
