Need? We don’t need cat-people, so of course not.

I think cats are more common simply because their features translate better to attractive human features. Throw some whiskers, cat ears, or :3 on a human face and they look cute, do the same with dog features and you end up with something more like Goofy.

That said the 2E dragon magazine with a giant pile of dog people was a pretty good issue.
