•Are cats and dogs smarter than babies?

A professor emeritus of psychology at the University of British Columbia has spent his career investigating dog intelligence.
Stanley Coren said dogs do have some cognitive skills, such as vocabulary and counting, that roughly correspond to those of young toddlers.
It's important to note that dogs' intelligence is highly dependent on their breed, experience and training.
Study: Cats may even be better at associating words with pictures than human toddlers are.
Vonk doesn't think it makes sense to view cat intelligence through the lens of human development.
"They are probably far more efficient hunters than most humans will ever be," Vonk said.
