You got that totally wrong, we are their guineapigs for some obscure experimnents on our planet, so maybe we should see us as *their* pets.-snip- ...your pet? ... -snip-
All these aliens camouflage along the same lines, take mice, e.g., also aliens that are already here: As you can easily look up in the Hitchhikers Guide through the Galaxy
http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/MiceMice are the physical protrusions into our dimension of a race of hyperintelligent pan-dimensional beings who commissioned construction of the Earth to find the Question to the Ultimate Answer of Life, the Universe, and Everything.
As such, they are the most intelligent life form on that planet, contrary to what humans think. They spend a lot of their time in behavioural research laboratories running round inside wheels and conducting frighteningly elegant and subtle experiments on man. The fact that once again man completely misinterprets this relationship is entirely according to these creatures' plans.
In their home dimension, a popular sport is Brockian Ultra-Cricket, a horribly violent game which involves hitting people for no readily apparent reason and then running away, before apologising from some distance - often through a megaphone. However, it is completely unrelated except in name to the Earth sport of cricket.
In case you havent heard about "The Guide", dont worry too much:
Still, I recommend reading it, might help with the question you mounted this thread about.The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. Perhaps the most remarkable, certainly the most successful book ever to come out of the great publishing corporations of Ursa Minor - of which no Earthman has ever heard of.
More popular than the Celestial Home Care Omnibus, better selling than Fifty-Three More Things to do in Zero Gravity, and more controversial than Oolon Colluphid's trilogy of philosophical blockbusters Where God Went Wrong, Some More of God's Greatest Mistakes and Who is this God Person Anyway?
It's already supplanted the Encyclopedia Galactica as the standard repository of all knowledge and wisdom, for two important reasons. First, it's slightly cheaper; and secondly it has the words DON'T PANIC printed in large friendly letters on its cover.
