    People who don’t like cats.

    I’ve noticed a correlation between people who don’t like cats and having narcissistic or selfish tendencies. Could be just an impression but that’s how I feel.

      Huh, I kinda feel the opposite. You need (or at least SHOULD) be very attentive to a pup. Dogs, in general, tend to crave/require more attention. Cats are more hands-off, so they often attract the kinda people who want a pet for the sake of having a pet - which tend to be narcissistic types.*

      *not true of all cat people

        Interesting. My reasoning is that narcissistic people crave attention, which cats may not give so overtly as a dog. Basically for a dog, a person is a god and some people love that kind of relationship.

        In my experience dog owners often like to control another being, cat owners like to just let others be.
