In fiction, as well as in real life, people like to guess that animals do enjoy being around their humans. While there's a lot of scientific debate on the relationship between humans and their pets, and whether animals truly "love" their humans or if that's just anthropomorphism, there's a general consensus that many pets at least have an attachment to their humans. This occurs when that's not the case. The pet animal isn't particularly attached to their owner. They might look down upon them and see them as nothing but a free meal or they might not just consider their owner on the same level as they do their own species. "It" Is Dehumanizing might even be in usage. Pet cats in particular are prone to this trope because Cats Are Superior. It might be a sign of a Loser Protagonist or a Butt-Monkey if their pet, especially ones that are usually loyal like dogs, don't respect them. Sometimes, however, the pet may end up respecting its owner more. This contrasts with the Loyal Animal Companion, who will do anything for their owner. It also is generally a more intense version of This Is My Human. The pet may think that Humans Are Bastards. It may also result in an Unsuccessful Pet Adoption if the owner decides the pet just isn't right for them (or the other way around). |

Some The Far Side comics have dogs debating the pros and cons of murdering their owner: in one case, there'll be no more treats, but there'll be no more "Fetch the stick, boy!" | |

PAW Patrol: Sweetie appears to be neutral to her owner, the Princess of Barkingburg, and she has no qualms with manipulating her. In "Mission PAW: Pups Save the Royal Throne", she floats off on a throne using balloons so she can rule somewhere else and she doesn't seem to miss the Princess (though the latter definitely misses her). However, she draws the line at the Princess being in danger, as shown in "Jet to the Rescue", when she decides to help the PAW Patrol save her owner. | |

All Dogs Go to Heaven: Charlie, sort of. Anne-Marie calls him her dog at one point, and initially, he only keeps her around so he can use her for winning money at bets. He ultimately ditches this trope when he actually comes to care about her. He even sacrifices himself to save her. | |

Open Season: Mr. Weenie initially wants to get away from his owners, and when he meets the forest critters, he rips off his clothes and admits he's been living a lie all this time. When one of his owners, Bobbie, finds him in the second movie, he's not very happy about going with her. He overcomes this when he realizes how much she loves him and that he loves her, too. | |

Garfield: In this strip◊, Garfield is watching Lassie Come Home. A person on the TV calls out for Lassie to come home, and she just says, "Make me." This trope is deconstructed in this 1989 arc◊ when Garfield sees a future where his house is completely empty and he realizes that, after all these years of taking Jon's care for granted, what he truly fears is loneliness. When he snaps out of it, he gives Jon a big hug and says that he doesn't need breakfast, he needs Jon. |

Throughout Married... with Children, the Bundy's family dog Buck's mental voice frequently made clear his disdain for the deadbeat family he was stuck with. In one episode, he is sent to get help after Al and Bud get lost in the woods, he goes home and leaves them to their fate. When Buck finally passed away, he is tried in heaven for his past Jerkassery (though not towards the Bundys, the judge was a cat), and, as a Cool and Unusual Punishment, is reincarnated as the Bundys' new puppy, Lucky. | |

This is later subverted when it's revealed that he only ignores Iris because he's afraid of disappointing her, and he becomes obedient to her again after they make amends with each other. | |

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl: After Swinub becomes Piloswine (and later a Mamoswine), he becomes more of a jerk. He ignores Dawn's commands and only obeys her when he's bribed in some way. He even attacks her a few times. He overcomes this in "Trials and Adulations!" when Dawn helps heal his injuries, though he still retains a small rebellious streak. In "Tanks for the Memories!", Autumn's Miltank named Ilta is noted to ignore almost everything Autumn says and would rather laze around than help. This is somewhat justified, as Autumn has just caught her, and Brock helps Autumn earn Ilta's trust. Ilta becomes more obedient towards Autumn after she protects her from a swarm of Beedrill. |

In "If Mario and Yoshi Switched Places", he forces Mario to be his mount for once and jumps over a pit, which causes Mario to fall into it.

Played with for Futurama, as Nibbler is in fact The Mole and a highly intelligent surveyor who is pretending to be Leela's dumb pet. His role largely consists of playing this however as his persona is frequently destructive, gluttonous, and never breaks character to help the crew when they are in danger. It's never quite made clear whether it is down to being this trope for real or just taking his role a bit too seriously. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: Depending on the Writer, Gary the Snail can be this. Certain episodes portray him as not particularly concerned about his owner SpongeBob and only really being able to enjoy himself when he is away. Subverted in "Gary's New Toy", where Gary initially cares more about his new ball than SpongeBob and just continues playing with it and watching TV after SpongeBob says he is going to leave forever, only to want SpongeBob back when he realizes that his actions drove him away and he really is gone. Spongebob had two of these in the episode “Dumped.” Rex was a worm who ran away from Spongebob and Lary was a snail with a rude and unpleasant personality. |

Tig 'n Seek: Tiggy's cat Gweeseek is supposed to be a genius, yet spends most of her time doing typical cat stuff — batting things off ledges, lying on sunbeams, that sort of thing. She mostly ignores Tiggy's commands and often does things that impede their missions. Once an Episode, however, Gweeseek will build a device out of random junk to help Tiggy. Whether she's Obfuscating Stupidity or genuinely apathetic towards Tiggy unless he's in real danger is left unclear. | |

In fact, Mittens is struggling with trust issues (as her previous family mistreated and abandoned her) and is having trouble adjusting to being in a domestic circumstance again.

Cats in Tailchaser's Song generally look down upon humans (or "m'an" and "the Big Ones" as they're called), with many outright being reviled by them. Cats that live with humans think of humans as their servants, not their friends. Hushpad seems to be an outside cat, bordering on being a stray, but she only refers to her owner as "the m'an". She doesn't mind being coddled by children but prefers to either keep to herself or be around other cats. | |

This generally applies with cats in Warriors. Many former kittypets leave their owners without much thought, though some grow attached to their "housefolk". Rusty, the original lead who would later be known as Firestar, was born and raised a pet but took the Call to Adventure without a second thought for his owners and didn't once worry about leaving them. | |

Bad Kitty: Kitty is often indifferent to her owner (the narrator) and isn't afraid to attack him for any perceived slight. In Happy Birthday, Bad Kitty, it's revealed that this is because she used to be a kind kitten until he adopted her. She was furious that she had to leave her mother and became the crabby cat that we all know today. | |

Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!: Downplayed, as Scooby and Shaggy still have a close friendship, but the 14th episode shows that Scooby often has no qualms about ditching Shaggy if they're both in danger. | |

Captain Underpants: In "Captain Underpants and the Terrifying Return of Tippy Tinkletrousers", Kipper and his goons read a comic book made by younger George and Harold. In the comic, several bullies get cursed by Wedgie Magee's haunted pants. One of them comments that his armpits are burning, and his cat dryly comments that he's been haunted. The pants appear just then and eat the boy alive, and his cat just shrugs it off and goes to sleep. | |

Pokémon: The Original Series: In the first episode, Pikachu has no respect for Ash due to just being a novice trainer. He laughs at him whenever he makes a mistake and refuses to obey his orders. He comes to respect him after he saves him from a flock of Spearow. Once Charmander becomes Charmeleon, it increasingly ignores Ash's commands. When it becomes Charizard, it almost completely stops following Ash's orders, even costing him a championship match because it refuses to fight the other Pokémon. Eventually, it returns to being loyal to Ash after it regains respect for its trainer. |

Lilo & Stitch: Initially, Stitch only allows Lilo to adopt him as her pet so that he can hide from Jumba and he uses her as a shield at one point, something that even Jumba objects to. Stitch ends up ditching this trope, however, when he genuinely grows close to her. | |

How to Train Your Dragon: It's noted that dragons can't really feel love for humans and that they're never grateful for what their owners do for them. Toothless later overcomes this; when Hiccup is nearly eaten by the Green Death, Toothless remembers how kind Hiccup was to him and risks his life to save Hiccup. | |
