Probably because… before modern times, the common dog breeds in China were medium to large in size, while cats were small in size, which determined that dogs could bite people to death and injure them, while cats found it difficult to do so
For animals with low threat, people are generally quite tolerant.
Furthermore, it is widely believed that dogs are representatives of loyalty, and attacking their owners is naturally seen as betrayal. “Bite the owner’s dog” deviates from the original intention and expectations of humans in raising it (although in fact, these expectations are unilaterally imposed by humans), so it will naturally face counterattacks or retaliation from humans.
But cats are different. Most of the time, humans keep cats to catch mice. As long as they can drive away or kill mice, for humans, it has achieved the meaning of raising them. On this basis, if one can still indulge and be spoiled by it… that would be an unexpected gain. Even when forcibly petting a cat, there is already a thought of being countered by the cat in one’s mind before petting, so if you are really scratched and bitten by the cat, you will have a feeling of ‘it should be like this’

Comments from other netizens:
Netizen A: When a cat passes by, if you look at it a few more times or even call it twice, it may not necessarily bird you. And when a dog passes by, if you take a few more glances at it, it may come over and smell you, and if it’s not happy, it may even rush over and bite you.
Netizen B: Indeed, I never look directly at dogs on the road. Their eyes drift away, and I’m afraid that if I look directly at them, they will come and bite me.
After all, dogs have a low opinion of people
As a weak human, I dare not look directly at unfamiliar dogs on the road
Netizen C: Last week, the upper bunk forcibly kicked the cat and got in for over a thousand yuan
My neighbor spent over 300 yuan on the possibility of a domestic cat retaliating even if it was forcefully attacked by its owner
Netizen D: Because there are few people going out to take their cats for walks, the cats scratch their own owners
Netizen E: I feel very sorry for my son chasing stray cats when he was three years old, so I bought cat food for them to eat. Also educate my son to take care of cats. After my five-year-old son was chased several times by the dog of a dead old lady downstairs, I decisively reported her unlicensed dog.

Netizen F: As an adult, I am so scared by being chased by a dog… It is indeed quite dangerous for a 5-year-old child to be chased by a dog. If you don’t educate a dog properly, it will be too much.
Netizen G: My cat just caught a snake today, how can I
It doesn’t spare any birds or beasts, I really appreciate it. However, the goose caught so many things, but the mouse caught the least. I don’t know why
Maybe catching mice requires squatting, and we have to guard for a long time a day. I guess we don’t have the patience.
My cat, Ran Ge, is trained to be pampered, held, and kissed (it likes to sleep on my lap and I can fuck and kiss it as I please). It has been beaten up for three months and is a raccoon flower with tattooed skin and a wild temperament. I feel that raising a Chinese countryside cat requires companionship and skills, otherwise it is not family. In fact, if you raise a pet cat in the countryside, it will also be wild, and its genes are there.
Netizen H: Based on my experience of raising cats, when cats play and play with each other, they bite, scratch, and scratch each other. The same goes for humans. The original intention was to play, but she wants to
