I think the case for dogs and cats is different to pretty much any other animal when it comes to being pets. I tend towards the opinion that the fate and development of both dogs and cats has been entwined with our own for thousands of years now.It could be argued that keeping dogs or any other creatures as pets is wrong in the first place....
At some point dogs became very useful to us and in return we provided things for them. Cats too became useful, presumably when we started having to store grain and other foods. Cats could keep down the mice etc.. And so on and so forth. In these ways our relationship with cats and dogs is a lot more symbiotic than with other animals that we simply exploit.
