However, dogs, believe it or not, the canis familiaris, are, in fact, omnivorous. Cats are totally different from dogs. You kick a dog (you deserve to be kicked repeatedly until something breaks...just my opinion) it'll probably return. You kick a cat (same thing) it just might kick back, but it most likely will not return. You have to earn a cat's love and trust, even if you raise it from kitten to adult.

You're absolutely right, cats ARE carnivorous and get most of their nutritional needs from meat.
And in your second point, you're also correct except that if you kick a cat, it'll probably rip your face off and then leave and never come back! ;) At least, I know Lucy would!
