I just wanted to say that all cats are not ruthless.
I have a Mancoon that lives with me and my family and is one of the smartest animals I have known to date.
Thus far, he will stay with my 2-yr old daughter whenever she is sick, and won't let her out of her sight. She prefers to sleep on the bed with me and my wife, or lay on the couch with us after work.
Also she will open the garage door to go to her litter box. If she can't, she'll find me or my wife to open it for her. Stormy also likes to drink from the faucet and will be: on the bathroom sink in the morning right when we finish brushing our teeth, on the kitchen counter before we finish washing dishes, and back in the bathroom when we start getting ready for bed.
I have never seen her drink form her bowl.
She will also PLAY with our daughter (2 yrs old).. This is truly different for most cats, as she enjoys spending time with our child. My daughter has often used Stormy as a pillow while watching a movie.
So there may be some slow cats, but there are usually a lot more slow dogs. Cats exhibit far more personality and adaptation to their environment on their own, without having to be trained.
