Spot on! Dogs protect us physically, cats protect us spiritually.

You are probably right about this. Cats are especially sensitive. My last experience with a cat that was not mine was with my elderly cousin who was declining fast in an independent live section of a nursing home. My cousin was always jabbed with boosters and the cat, who's whole world was that apartment and my cousin, did not really want to be cuddled up to her much. After her latest jab, she rapidly declined physically and cognitively. She was moved to skilled care for her last 2 month of her life and the cat could only visit her but when brought to the room would struggle to get away.

P.S. I was always a reader of HP Lovecraft.
