What's really interesting is to look at the time scale when each our pets were first domesticated. Dogs domestication happened between 20,000 and 40,000 years ago, while the cat started becoming domesticted only 4000 years ago. Pretty crazy to think how much of a difference their is in the time it took each of them to become adaptive to human society. Makes you wonder what house cats will be like given the time frame dogs have had.

Probably more of an asshole attitude

I'm sure there's asshole cats, I don't think I've met any. Well, maybe one.

But what I have met are a bunch of people that expect them to behave like dogs and don't get that cats work different.

There aren't that many asshole cats, but all cats are assholes sometimes.

All cats have assholes, not all assholes have cats.
