Many of the animals you are listing domesticated themselves. Cats and parrots found that there was a food source living near humans and gradually moved into the houses. (though in the case of parrots, there is a small percentage still wild caught
)
Dogs were domesticated in a similar way, but with slightly more human intervention.
Why is it sad that they were domesticated? I know my life would have something missing without critters around.
