Good point. Spot certainly brought out Data's caring side. And all the nutitional supplements show that Dats wanted to make Spot happy

I wonder how Data decided on calling the cat Spot. That seems more like a dog's name to me.

I always assumed it was just that he knew Spot was a commonly used name for pets, but was unaware that it was specifically a dog's name.

Actually, that same hypothesis probably works better if applied to the show's writers going, "How can we make Data look like he doesn't quite get it?"
