  The payoff of that story is far better as well. In Generations, Data uses the emotion chip, then at the end, digging through the wreckage of the Enterprise, they find Spot. Data cries tears of joy.

  Felis Catus 
  is your taxonomic nomenclature 
  An endothermic quadruped 
  carniverous by nature 
  Your visual, olfactory, 
  and auditory senses 
  Contribute to your hunting skills 
  and natural defenses. 
  I find myself intrigued 
  by your sub-vocal oscillations 
  A singular development 
  of cat communications 
  That obviates your 
  basic hedonistic predilection 
  For a rhythmic stroking of your fur 
  to demonstrate affection. 
  A tail is quite essential 
  for your acrobatic talents 
  You would not be so agile 
  if you lacked its counterbalance 
  And when not being utilized 
  to aid in locomotion 
  It often serves to illustrate 
  the state of your emotion 
  Oh Spot, 
  The complex levels of behavior you display 
  Denote a fairly well developed cognitive array 
  And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend 
  I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.
