I forget where I read it, but cats are likely to eat you way faster. The dog, if it has a good bond, still will for survival, but feel bad about it and wait until it is starving. The cat is like “well, you’re meat now, don’t want to waste that”
AFAIK it’s because both animals will lick you in an attempt to wake you up, but cats tongues are so rough that they’ll break the skin after a bit, taste blood, then eat you

Yeah not sure I buy that the quickest a dog is known to eat their owner is 45 minutes. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0379073897001126

A cat wouldn’t wait until you were dead, but just weak enough that you can’t fight it off.
The cat is like, you’re dead now and you’re salty. I’ma eat you while you taste good. I raised my boy well.
As a cat hater, I can agree fully! 😜
