Some research has shown that dogs see us as 'not dogs' but still as 'pack leaders', they interpret human facial expressions and understand some words and are keen on communicating with us and pleasing us. Cats, however, see us as 'large strange-looking cats' and 'mother substitutes', the meow is a modification of the sounds kittens make to their mothers. Cats can also understand some words, and tones of voice, but have much less incentive to please, even if they understand a human attempt to induce them to do, or not do, something.
Boris decided he wanted to be one of these long legged cats called greyhounds when he was a kitten! He absolutely loved them, even to the point of using Monty or Dogglet's willies as pillows, everytime when they were laying about, and he came over, they'd cross thier legs!
Cats have been found to be far more attached to their humans than previously thought and get real seperation anxiety, it's just they don't have eyebrow muscles in the way we and dogs do so we don't see it.
