Dogs are pretty thoroughly domesticated and have behaviors/communication tailored towards interacting with people. Cats still kinda just treat us like they treat other cats, so there's almost a language barrier there and it can take some getting used to.

Didn’t cats self domesticate? Whereas dogs domesticated us /jk. We domesticated them, but they are probably the most in-sync with us out of all other species.
