I read the articles with a completely different perspective having just finished City and wondering how cats would have behaved in a killing-free dog world. By the way, I thought it was interesting how the dogs transitioned in the timeline from using special flea powders (killing insects contrary to the societal expectations) to suffering again from fleas.

Thanks for the links Bookworm_Girl . I had no idea about the bans on cats.
It seems the cats wouldn't have cooperated in the dog world. Lol . They probably are in another dimension ( cobbly world ) where the cat's rule and use dogs to find and retrieve their prey.
