Cats are carnivorous, solitary animals with retractable claws and a strong prey drive, while dogs are omnivorous, social animals with non-retractable claws and a strong pack mentality. Additionally, cats have a more independent nature and are typically more aloof, while dogs are usually more dependent on human companionship and exhibit more loyalty and obedience.
