Have you ever encountered an animal that was inherently "wild" and tried to domesticate it, or one that was severely mistreated or abused and tried to make it "nice", etc? Because I have on both accounts, and I can tell you it's a whole heck of a lot easier than humans who either are, or have been through the same, etc, and I think it's because they have more natural love on the inside than us, etc...God didn't give people dogs and cats, they were domesticated through a long evolutionary process. Cats in particular were initially tolerated because they kept down rodent population in granaries in the ancient Near East. There were not so much pets as symbiants. Only later did cats start actually becoming emotionally attached to human beings.
Most people now days in the US prefer pets because they are lonely and lack the social skills to have alot of friends, and/or they live physically isolated lives.
God Bless!
