I am reasonably sure that if cats domesticated us before we domesticated dogs, we wouldn't have domesticated dogs at all.

Nah, we domesticated dogs because they're the only other predator on the planet that we won't accidentally run to death while on a hunt. Cats are more into stealth and pouncing. Dogs and humans just chase our prey for miles till it can't run anymore. It was pretty much bound to happen at some point.
