That's one of the thing I love about cats. They refuse to compromise who they are. I respect that. Dogs will literally do whatever it takes to please you, and I love them to pieces too, but there's just something about cats determining their own path that you can't help but acknowledge. They know they don't technically need you, you're just warm and comfortable, but they know full well that at any moment would they so decide they could slice your throat and escape and survive in the jungle if they wanned.
