But we're also a great resource for information about the animals you see every day: your pets. Through the ages, humans have forged fascinating relationships with animals, whether they have feathers, fins, or fur. Of all domestic animals, we've been living with dogs and cats the longest. Read about our surprising research that's suggesting dogs actually domesticated us, and learn more about our love affair with canines. See how cats' interactions with humans at work haven't changed much since the 15th century. Then check how much you know about your animals with our dog, cat, and pet quizzes. See how dogs use smell to track humans. EXPLORE MORE • Descend into our dog infinite photo mosaic. • Watch what cats do when you're not looking.
