I think the pet kingdom is upside down. Dogs should act like cats and vice-versa. They should be the ones who act all calm and collected. They, after all, are the only pet who can, or will, act as a theft deterrent. Cats, fish and hamsters aren't really a threat, are they? The dog should sit there and act like he could give a crap and say things like "I might be lazy right now, but I'll protect your ass when you sleep, so bring that food and water dish over here."
