My cats meow a "bless you" if someone coughs near them.

Yeah, but, "empathy coughing" would be low on the list of my Occam's razor responses. That's like... good dog, but at the same time, why did you cost me a lot of money dog. They just exercising empathy but don't know how.

I'm sure if you brought your dog to the vet and they said "maybe it's only faking being sick to fit in" you'd say "what the fuck is wrong with you, run some tests"

Or they could've kept it to themselves and made the owner pay for more tests but they chose not to.

Anyway: Not sure if serious.

This imitation habit of dogs is why you should always distract them while picking up their poo with subtlety.
