What is the opposite of a cat?

Just expanding on a conversation I’ve had with our kid here. Obviously the first answer is ‘dog’, but is that actually the opposite of cat? Let’s get some thoughts on the whiteboard.

Cats are furry and hunt and are really agile, they have four legs, a tail and a good sense of smell. they seem very independent but can also be affectionate when they want to.

So I’d say, a rock.

Did you know that a rock shares 99.98% of its DNA with a cat?

most nouns do not have an opposite as the term relates to items at different sides of a linear spectrum, which applies more to adjective states than to things.

That said, many of the behavioural traits we associate with cats and dogs are opposites.

Cats cold, dogs warm.
Cats clever, dogs stupid.
Cats disloyal, dogs loyal.
Cats clean, dogs dirty.

So probably a fair enough opposite, but they are more alike than opposite in truth (insert that stat about how we share 90% of our DNA with a table leg)
