You'd think that our domesticated wolfpack (five mutts, probably totaling 350 lbs.) would cause a lot of damage, but it's precisely because they're more robust that they don't. As one walks from one room to another, stepping over a minefield of dogs which have flopped down to nap nearby, they've developed a habit of looking up as you step over them, just in time for you to inadvertently kick them in the head. Being dogs of very little brain, they seem not to notice accidental blows which would at the very least hospitalize a tiny cat, so avoiding them isn't as important.

(I've also established to my satisfaction that one of them is fireproof, though using him as a potholder is problematic.)
