Personifications of Michael "The Cat" and Gabriel as animals symbolic to their personalities. The Cat actually has two ways of symbolizing him. As an actual cat, an Abyssinian, and as a tiger.
In High Society, following Gabriel's infection and adoption into the group, the undead schizophrenic is used as a "pitbull" by The Cat enact revenge on and punish those who cross him. Gabriel takes to the task like a fish to water, but the man isn't stable. It's only a matter of time before something makes him snap. And then The Cat may come to regret baiting his "pet" so often.

i read it as the pitbull being used as an attack/revenge tool by the cat- the fact that the man is unstable is unrelated to his breed- but with the cat (a bad owner, like many irl pit bulls have) using him the way he does, it's only a matter of time before the dog bites back- in terms of symbolism it fits pretty well :3
The comparison is more to abused, pit-fighter pits than the typical pet pits, both in his personality (protective, tenacious) and how he's being used. Both the creator of the character and myself absolutely love pitbulls and continuously call Gabriel the "pibble" as a reflection of that.
