If you have a cat and you ignore her, she’ll ignore you. If you care for her, she’ll love you back. I know this from many years of experience. Cats are like friends – you get as much out of the relationship as you put in.
If you have a dog and you ignore him, he’ll still love you. Which is sad for the dog. Don’t pat yourself on the back because you have a dog that loves you; it means nothing. Dogs are genetically forced to love you.
So if the only animal you can get to love you is a dog, you’re not a very good pet owner.
