The title says it all. Comment if you use something else and share what you use.
I don't see why one needs to exclude the other. After all, fact that you are a human is fundamental part of what makes you a person you are. Same for the cat.I don't use either term. After all, when you look at a person do you think of them as a unique person or as a thing? It's like looking at a pet cat, how often do you think of it as an example of felis catus as opposed to an individual cat with a personality of it's own?
