A book about two species (both fictional creatures) living together, with one more aggressive species bullying/using the nicer/more willing-to-help species. I distinctly remember the nicer group being in cans/jars/tins, possibly forced into them by the aggressive group.

I read this in English and in the 2000s, most likely in the UK and pre-2007. May well not have been a British book though and may well have been old at the time.

I remember an illustration of the creature in a can/jar but am unsure if this was a front cover or an in-page illustration
