[transcript] - Moving into college can be part of adulthood, sectioning you out from old parts of yourself and finding something new. For more people finding friends is the harder part once they get to college, so they think, how could I find a new friend? What would be my forever friend. And here, I'm here to enter the age old debate of what would be better a cat or a dog for a living situation while you're in college. As I look deeper into this topic, I just have realized how much this topic changes over the past couple of years. How much a dog can mean to a person will a cat mean equally? While asking a person would they think would be the forever friend? You have to look deeper into it. Getting the friend is just the beginning. But what comes after with it could mean a lot more to you than just having the pet. My first question I asked people was, what would you rather clean up a cat's mess or a dog's mess? For most people that don't know, cats use a box, they're typically very good about using the box and learn from an early age. While dogs have to go outside, they don't really come, they don't get the concept of a box. And they'll cry for hours. And if you don't let them out, you might just have to deal with the mess later yourself. The first source for this project that I decided to go with was a Vogue magazine. Now, they were asking people that lived more in apartments and homes. For this project, I would like it to be more for apartments, but I took it with a grain of salt. It said up around 70% of people would have a dog over a cat. And while that makes a lot more sense, people love the feelings of dogs and just how affectionate they can be towards a person. Why do they feel that way? Whenever it could be a lot more work, and a lot more time consuming. While you're in a school, that's also very time consuming, trying to get your major to figure out your life. Hearing these questions at first might sound a little silly to you. But the more you get asked them, the more you start to think about them. And while having all this time consumed, where would you find the time to maybe even taking these life forms. For the next part of this research, I decided to bring in a student that's also here at Texas Tech staying in the dorms, she could give valuable explanation and his own both a cat and a dog. For our first question for Hannah, I would just like to know the basics. What do you think is better a cat or a dog?
