Nah, cats can be just as dedicated to their owners as dogs. I think they just have different body language that most people aren't really as in tune to as with dogs.

For example, when cats glare at you with a kind of disinterested look, blinking slowly etc., that's actually an expression of trust for cats. I know my cat also gets extremely excited to see me every time I come home and hangs out on the porch with me after work each day.

the common saying is that cats are introverts and dogs are extroverts: cats show love by magically always being in the same room as you (including the toilet), dogs show affection by screaming "I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU" repeatedly until you go deaf all the while jumping off the walls because they're just so excited that you still exist.
