Before I answer in Turkish, let me check I understand:
"Your dogs are happy. Because of this I am also happy I very much like dogs and cats. Do you not have any cats?"

You had me worried because I looked up "yüzden" and thought it might be derived from "yüzmek" - to skin (an animal)

lol, you got it right. Split Yüzden into two pieces: Yüz (means: aspect etc) and -den (ablative noun case ending meaning from/than/by/because etc) - loosely translated: because of this (aspect) i'm happy too.

ahhh okeyy, malik olmak, I think I know this verb but never used it, and it's not heard too much. sahip olmak is
better.but to say "I don't have any cat"
Hiç kedim yok. or Kedim yok.

And for the second one "kavga etmek" is better than savaşmak. Savaşmak sounds as making war.

Kediler ve köpekler birbirleriyle kavga ederler.
Kedi ve köpek birbirleriyle (or birbiriyle) kavga eder.

birbiriyle = with each other

I think you better say "Kedilerim yok". Var/yok with the right possessive marker means "to have".
Benim kalemim var/yok - I have/I don't have a pen
Senin kalemin var/yok
Onun kalemi var/yok
Bizim kalemimiz var/yok
Sizin kaleminiz var/yok
Onların kalemleri var/yok

Ah!
So Türkçe does have irregular verbs besides "to be"
