One of my cats has a much bigger murder section than the other. Her brain is probably about 30% murder and 30% food. Oddly, she is substantially thinner than the other one who is not very food or murder oriented. The porky one is mostly nap - probably 60%.
Dogs think about food when they're hungry, or when food is present. Cats will stand on you and complain for hours because their food bowl is only 90% full and they'd really prefer it to be 100% full at all times, please and thank you.
I have a kitten than just pulled a 10bag of food off the top of the fridge while the old fat man encouraged him... Cats are just as aggressively food motivated as most dogs they're just more evil about it.
I have two dogs. One will do anything for food. The other likes food, but if you offer him most people food, he'll either take it away and then leave it on the ground or not even take it in the first place.
The youngest we have ever gotten a dog is six months, so they do end up destroying a lot, but never furniture thankfully.
My first dog chewed up a book when she was a puppy though. I also once dropped a business card and she immediately grabbed it off the floor and ate it so fast she barely chewed it.
I have a pit bull/dalmatian mix (at least we think so) and she has "murder" as a significant part of her brain considering she's happily killed countless animals (and brought many through the dog door). She usually doesn't eat them, she just kills them and hangs on to them like a trophy until we can get them away from her, which is not easy.
Also, the best day of her life is when some stupid bunny decided to give birth to her babies in our back yard and she found them and ate all of them, slurping them up one by one like spaghetti as we watched in horror. It was the best day of her life.
Prey drive is no joke. My sister has a heeler/corgi mix, and taking her for a walk is an exercise in not dislocating your arm whenever she spots a small animal. She's adorabloodthirsty.
Oddly her other dog, a heeler/pit mix, is super chill with no apparent prey drive whatsoever. I'm pretty sure you could hold a baby bird in front of his face and he'd just sniff at it dumbly with his tail wagging.
I had a bordercollie that would eat feces. Also a lab cross who would chew carpet, fun times chasing him around trying to pull the dangling poop out of his but.
I’d say my cats look more like the top with “claw” instead of dig and the loyalty/protect family is still there but it’s the “I can punch my brother but no one else can” version. Never had a cat that plays fetch before so play is definitely in there.
