  1. Interesting as usual. We are cat people, though, and even a great dog like Kya would not persuade us to switch to dogs. I agree with you that technological advances that might try to make pets more like humans are undesirable.

  2. I love the idea that you sometimes call Elsie Kaia by mistake. Just the sort of thing I’d do if I ever had a pet – or a grandchild come to think of it. But I never ever had a pet, so speak on this subject from the depths of ignorance.

    There’s a very good book by Professor Alice Roberts ( she who is always on TV) called “Tamed”. She points out that whilst we consider ourselves to have tamed dogs and cats, from their perspective that may well think they’ve tamed us. I think this backs up nicely the points you make about mutuality.
