When did all the stereotypes for animals come about? Why do they always make cats the bad guys?

this is actually surprisingly easy to trace. most of it is just exaggeration of an animal's natural temperament and behavior. a lot of it goes back to Aesops' Fables, most notably the sly fox. the wikipedia article has a lot of specific examples on where stereotypes likely came from, but most of it the stereotypes are just common sense.

and while cats actually have a pretty even mix of being good and evil, there is some natural disadvantage just because of the way they are drawn (and because they are in general so much less affectionate than dogs..):
cats have triangular heads. triangular head = boom instant villain.

What would happen to the emotions in Inside Out, if someone takes drugs?

^Depends on the drug. Perhaps the emotions get high, too. Or they go insane. Or die.

Keep that in mind when you consider taking illegal drugs.
