Both can. They seem to know when something's wrong with you. When I was home for a week after my accident, every time I would lie down on the bed to rest, they would gather around me and groom me. I don't know if it was just because they were thrilled to have me home for so long, or if they knew I was hurt, but it definitely was a comfort to me.

I have 3 dogs and 3 cats, so this is a tough one. I would have to say cats. Though both can tell if I'm in need of comfort, the vibration of the cats purr is very soothing,

My cat.
She's 15 now and still doing a great job keeping all the critters and rodents away and looking like a live statue, beautiful masterpiece of art.
How come people who like dogs don't like people who like cats? and not the other way around.
I have nothing against dogs but I don't have any because they crap everywhere (and God forbid, you have to pick it up), are not self cleaning and make a lot of noise when they bark in the middle of the night, waking up your neighbors...
Plus, you could still have a mouse in the house with a dog.
Dogs are the best for people who need unconditional love or protection from an attacker.
I don't need unconditional love or protection, I need serenity and I get it when I look at my cat sleeping.

It has been proven that animals brought to a convalesent home has a calming, relaxing effect on the elderly patients. Yes, I find a dog or cat companion, comforting.

My 2 cats are a huge comfort to me...better than any human because they can't talk so they can't hurt my feelings or make me feel foolish. They always seem to know when something is bothering me. I lost my job, got depressed, and then got sick on top of that, I lost a week of my life, and my cats, Bumble and Bella, were by my side the whole time.

Both, but mostly cats. I love how a cat warms up a place, they are like little furnaces of sweet warmth, full of love. Dogs cheer you up when you are sad, cats give you permission to be cozy and comfortable.
