Dogs and cats can’t talk, but they have other ways of expressing themselves. One of the ways they express their gratitude and sense of belonging to the pack is by bringing all kinds of “gifts.” It’s so endearing, except when they bring a dead mouse or a frog to your bed.

Both cats and dogs have this in their genes. Presenting the results of a gathering-hunting expedition to their superiors is something they’ve been doing even in the wild.

Whatever they bring—a toy, a dead animal, or a shoe—will be presented with a sense of pride. It’s a form of acknowledgment, and they are essentially saying that we are part of the same pack.
