dogs seem friendly, cats, not so much

This is 100% false. If you treat your cat(s) well while it's a kitten, it will be just as loving and loyal as a dog. I have two (Got them as kittens), and they are both very affectionate (although one is more skittish around new people). My friends who come over always marvel about how much LIKE dogs they are, but without walking them constantly, or listening to random barking in the middle of the night because your neighbor is coming home from the bar.
