O.K., I say this as someone who, if given the choice, would have a dog around the house rather than a cat. But, look at this cat. Is there any question that it owns that house? No. It's saying, "Go away, Camera Guy". A dog, on the other hand, would be saying, "Are you sure I should be here?" Dogs always seem to be looking for permission, no matter how much they might not seem to be. You can see it in their eyes. Cats, on the other hand, are always saying, "Are you talkin' to me? Are you talkin' to me?".
