When I saw the dog smile at me, I knew I was in trouble. The cat seemed to be thinking, "I'm risking my life to be petted by this dog!"

The relationship between dogs and cats seems to be two extremes. Some dogs are incredibly protective of cats, never getting angry no matter how the cat treats them, happily enduring the cat's warmth or coldness every day. Other dogs, however, are completely different. They see a cat like prey, relentlessly chasing it around. The cat can't fight back; it can't beat the dog, and even if it does, the dog doesn't feel any pain. A few minutes later, it's back, eager to provoke the cat again!

Take this netizen's dog and cat, for example. The netizen has a dog and a cat. Although the dog doesn't usually fight with the cat, it likes to pet and cuddle it. This day was no exception. The owner knew something was wrong when they saw the look in the dog's eyes—it was about to start petting the cat again!

However, the little yellow dog pets the cat differently than we do. We pet the cat with our hands, but the little yellow dog tries to put the cat's head in its mouth! The cat definitely doesn't want its head in the dog's mouth; that's such a huge risk! Even if the bite doesn't hurt, the feeling is still wrong, and it's too creepy!

The dog didn't care about any of that. It'd already given its owner a signal, so the owner should know what it was going to do. Besides, the cat was lying in a particularly good spot today, perfect for the dog to bite. So it opened its mouth wide and tried to put the cat's head inside. The cat was definitely resisting: This dog is insane! Am I being petted? I'm being petted like a dog!

After struggling several times, the cat finally managed to free its head from the dog's mouth! However, the dog clearly didn't give up on petting the cat immediately and continued trying to bite the cat's head again!

Finally, when the dog realized that this still didn't work, it lowered its head and looked at the cat's head, seemingly calculating in its mind how to best hold the cat's head next time.
