Who says cats aren't affectionate and don't care for their owners?
 

Heya folks!

So last night I was sitting there using the computer, and Lynxie's food
bowl was between the door and me. I noticed him come into the room, walk
RIGHT PAST the food bowl, rub himself against and around my ankles,
stopping for a scritch between the ears, and only then walk back to the
food bowl and devour the remaining food there.

He decided that greeting me first was more important than eating! I was
a bit touched by this, and gave him a few extra treats once he finished
his food.

He's become such a wonderful cat. And to think I had waited so long to
finally get a kitty....

-Zorin, still alive

That's soooo sweet :)

Your subject line says it all. And your story rings true. I would be
willing to bet that for most of us, our kitty alarms go off in the
morning to get us up and around, and to play with them, as much as for
food. Stinky has food down all night, and he wants his snuggle time
and attention in the morning.

Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal
claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful.
