A scene from Meet the Parents 2000
Jack

Greg, how come you don't like cats?

Greg

I don't not like cats. I-I just-- I just prefer dogs. I mean, I'm just more of a dog kind of, you know--Come home, wagging their little tails, happy to see you kind of--

Jack

You need that assurance? You prefer an emotionally shallow animal?

Greg

I--

Jack

You see, Greg, when you yell at a dog, his tail will go between his legs and cover his genitals, his ears will go down. A dog is very easy to break, but cats make you work for their affection. They don't sell out the way dogs do.

Greg

Huh.
