They have different techniques of hunting
As you probably know, cats are hunters – which means that they like to capture and kill animals – and dogs are scavengers – which means that they consume dead animals that have died from other causes.
“Dogs tend to be better scavengers, and as a result, they’re more resourceful in that sense,” says Patel. This may explain why dogs enjoy puzzles and search games, while cats prefer a toy they can pounce on. “Cats typically hunt to kill, with less focus on scavenging,” she adds.
