Dogs tend to get grabbed more often than cats because cats are not as curious about rancid odors. Gators in the wild are quite ripe-smelling because they eat mostly carrion. Dogs cannot resist getting right down in that stink, and they sometimes pay the price for that. Cats tend to be a bit more cautious and stay further back, and are usually more agile, so they stand a better chance of escaping.
There was a large gator that was caught a few years ago near Tarpon Springs, that hunters tracked using the radio collar signal from a missing hunting dog. When they opened it up, there were about a dozen radio collars inside it; it lived near a state duck hunting preserve, and had developed a taste for dogs.
