Even though cats and dogs are of different species, they do bond and
do go through seperation anxiety, just like animals do when you leave
for the day. They feel confused and abandoned and that makes them do
neurotic behaviors, such as get on top of the fridge and sleep in the
bathtub.

Hope this helps..
