A bitch comes into heat only once in every six months. A tabby is nearly always ready for business. Plus dogs are very often kept on leashes whereas a cat on a leash is the exception. So the chances for dogs to find a mate is very limited while cats go in and out as they please.
Of course, size must be a factor, too. You can fit more cats in the same space than dogs, generally speaking.
I agree with you! I also think cats are more popular and people have more cats as most are more independent than dogs. Owning a cat takes slightly less commitment as cats entertain themselves and don't need to be walked every day ect...
