People are stupid. They will provide food and lodging--no matter how bad we are. We can purrr; or not. Allow ourselves to be petted; or not. Hide in the basement; or sit on a lap. We can dance for our food, wrap our sleek bodies around stumpy people limbs, cleverly sit on the exact paragraph the peeps were reading; vomit in the middle of a brand-new bedspread. It doesn't matter. The silly people will keep our bowls filled with fine Kitty Chow. Everybody knows people will feed their beloved pets; no matter what. Dogs, however, have not figured out this basic truth.
Dogs will do anything (although some of the breed are pretty cat-like in their bestial ways. Lucy will do anything for a pup-peroni. When they say "shake" she sits down and puts a paw in an outstretched hand. Real impressive. A cat wanting a special treat would just hop on the counter and get it. You think the dogs might see how it works. But no. A thousand years from now paws will be reaching for hands. And we will still be walking the the warm caramel.
