List of farm animals people get called, ranked by how accurate the insult is
Chicken: 1/10. Could not be less accurate. Chickens are surprisingly smart in some tasks, and they know many things, but knowing fear is not one of them. The only thing a chicken is scared of is another chicken.
Dog: 2/10. There is essentially no overlap between things people mean when calling someone a dog as an insult, and the traits that dogs actually have. One point added for the expression of "got that dog in you", because dogs sure will doggedly keep trying.
Donkey: 3/10. To call someone a donkey is a way to call them an idiot. Donkeys, however, are not stupid. They know exactly what you want them to do, they just don't want to do it.
Goat: 4/10. While being "the goat" apparently has no connection to the animal, goats are only great if you aren't personally responsible of having to make them do anything they don't want to do. Or stop them from anything they do want to do.
Pig: 5/10. Calling someone a pig means you're calling them ruthless, greedy and filthy creature. Pigs are actually not particularly filthy or disgusting, but given the opportunity, they will absolutely eat a small child.
Cow: 6/10. Calling someone a cow is a way to call someone a big fat bitch. Cows are certainly big lumbering things. Points taken off on the grounds of bovines and fat bitches both being cute.
Guinea pig: 7/10. Calling someone a guinea pig is for when you're using them as a test subject for something in the name of science. And they sure do that for guinea pigs.
Sheep: 9/10. Calling someone a sheep is a way to call them a stupid herd follower. Sheep do seem to be dumb as hell, and the only times they use their single brain cell or wander away from the herd are when they just came up with a new and ingenious way to get killed.
Cat: 10/10. The only context I have heard someone being called a cat as anything is calling someone a cool cat, which is someone smooth and charismatic, or calling a woman a hellcat when she is enforcing her boundaries with more violence than a man would prefer. Not even an insult.
