While researching for AniAnimals, I realized something... A lot of anime about space has cats, but not dogs. There are specific dogs, but a majority are cats.

SDF Macross: Misa Hayase-Ichijyo's childhood cat
Macross 7 Plus: Veffidas Feaze had a black cat
Macross 7 Dynamite: Zolan marsupial cats
Macross Delta: the Mercats

Space Battleship Yamato / Captain Harlock: Dr Sado's cat Mii-kun

Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's family cat Lucifer

Banner of the Stars: Diaho and misc cats

Galaxy Angel: Baron Fitzgerald III (Goro-chan)

Galactic Railroad: Main characters are cat-people
