Why are dogs so loyal and Cats not?

[NarutoWA]

Why Dogs are so loyal towards the master? And not the cats? or any other pets?
Or it is just a myth?

 

[NarutoB]

Pussies don't put up with bullshit

 

[YokoKurama]

What?
My cat it very loyal.
But yeah most cats don't care what you want them to do. Also, not all dogs are loyal. Some are rather unruly.

They were domesticated in different ways. +different evolutional circumstances I guess

Because the cat is not a pack animal, there is no inherent need or desire for the cat to comply with anyone's wishes but its own. We humans have a difficult time accepting this because we relate as pack animals.

Cats are indeed a solitary species. But they can and do live in groups. This seems confusing to us because we are social animals and have a difficult time understanding and accepting a different social structure. Our other companion pet, the dog, is also a social or pack animal. He fits right in with our way of thinking and living. The cat does not.

on a totally unrelated note i heard rats are well-received and make for good pets too..

Because they have been created this way.
Both cats and dogs can be very loyal.

Its nature nothing else

Dogs appreciate what we do for them.
Cats think to be highly above us, once you give them food and whatever they want, they'll ignore you till next time.
