Yeah I try not to think about it too hard because it creeps me out a little too much.
In that one-off story Rick wrote about one area where cats were domesticated, the King Cat demanded that his people be given respect if they were to become rodent control for the humans. Treating their offspring like a commodity isn't very respectful...
I thought the same thing while I read that, but I was also thinking:
We are humans, man, you think just because someone asks nicely we are gonna respect their wishes throughout the generations forever and ever?
I love a dialog from the Simpsons, in which Bart and Homer are listening to the TV in the middle of the night in full volume.
Lisa: "turn down the volume, I'm trying to sleep!"
Homer: "Oh, Lisa, if we didn't turn it down when the police came, you think we would do it for YOU?"
20th century fox? Given that this is the year 2020, that fox must be dead by now. Sadface! : (
I'm telling you, hyenas ARE canines too!
