For the life of my I can not figure out WHY that cat would put up with that. That little swipe the cat makes at the end says it's not happy with the process.

It looks like the cat and dog were trying to get in the house, through the window. And cat was stuck, being all "MEEEOONOOOO, I want on other side looking out." And dog was like "walls, this is how they work". It's really a matter of perspective and problem solving. Sometimes cat needs to be drug to the way.

That really felt like a Garfield and Oldie moment.
"DOG, carry me home, I have a surprise waiting for you there.."
"Sure!"
[Carry home]
Dog," We're home! Where's my surprise!!"
[WHACK! KITTY PAW!]

Some cats are just mellow that way. My cat outweighs our dog by 10 lbs., and they interact in about the same way, only our dog gets on top of our cat instead of the other way around. She bites his legs, tail and ears, and he just sits there and takes it, meowing loudly with that pissed off meow they do. He'll eventually start swiping at her, but he doesn't use claws, and she just goes into a fit of joy, because she thinks he's playing with her.
Maybe he likes it, because he could certainly end it instantly by really attacking her or jumping up on the furniture. He seems annoyed as all hell, though.

That cat is all..."Fuck's sake, dude. Have you no pride? Okay, I'm gonna let you do this, but only because it'd be more embarrassing for both of us if I fought you. Also, I believe there's food in the house and eh, it's been a tough day."

I had a hard time parsing Huck500's comment, leading me to realise that I think all cats are girls and all dogs are boys.

The dog has taught the cat learned helplessness.

Memory-retrieved from deep down of the Peanuts gospel: "they've finally developed the boneless cat" That's how this looks like.

My mom is ALWAYS calling my boy cats girls, partially because she has a girl cat and we had a boy dog growing up and partially because it's an Indian peoples thing or at least where she's from. They call them a "tiger's aunt." Cute eh.

One of our cats will fetch the other one. Not bodily but if Oz just won't come in, I'll tell Clem to "go get Oz." He always gives me a look like, "lady, you know I don't speak English" but then runs off and moments later, Oz will come bounding in the door. Sadly, does not work in reverse.
