Cats are very friendly and intimate but also they ask you to earn your relationship with them first.
Writers on average have trouble making friends and obtaining companionship. If they didn't, maybe they'd just be at parties instead of locked in their rooms writing. A cat fulfills some amount of companionship while not being intrusive enough to exhaust the mind of an introvert. They're a perfect pet for solitary people.
Dogs require you to take them outside where you will be observed by others. They need a lot more direct attention.

Cats are the pet of the intellectual. They have their own unique character, are independent and have evolved to emotionally manipulate humans, never to be controlled by them. Meanwhile dogs are the pet of the plebian,
mere automatons, wholy subordinate to the will of the master, and their love is given so freely that it contains no value. If we additionally consider the aesthetic facet, felidae are the winner out of the entire animal kingdom.

Writing is a lonely profession and cats don't demand attention like dogs do.

Dogs are pets for physically active people and require certain routine. Cats are pretty independent and usually play with toilet paper and not your latest work that you wrote last night and don't have a backup.
