Its easy to understand why the cat has eclipsed the dog as modern America's 
favorite pet. People like pets to possess the same qualities they do. Cats are 
irresponsible and recognize no authority, yet are completely dependent on 
others for their material needs. Cats cannot be made to do anything useful. 
Cats are mean for the fun of it
