"Bill" wrote in message ...
"Cheryl *" wrote in message ... I am the owner of three cats - one is a domestic longhair 8 yrs old, and the other two are domestic shorthairs 2 yrs old (siblings). I also own two dogs, ages 8yrs, and 8 months. All are female, and all are spayed. Each cat - of course - has a unique personality. One of the 2 year olds has me baffled, tho. When my father - who only visits once every couple of months or so - visits my home, this cat - who is usually quite aloof - acts like she is absolutely crazy about him. She rubs all over him, and will also lay in front of him on the floor "wiggling" on her back. She does not leave him alone. She has behaved this way towards him since his first visit - a little over 1 year ago. Just this past week she started giving him what I think are "love bites". Now, she has always been a friendly cat, but her usual behavior is to rub against our legs, get petted, then be on her way (she doesn't like to be picked up). She NEVER acts toward anyone else the way she acts towards my Dad. She will come out to visit as soon as he arrives. We are a family of females at my house. The only male is our Beta fish! LOL Don't know if that would have anything to do with it or not. Also, my Dad and Mom only have one dog at their house.Thanks for any insight any of you can give me!! Cats like some people more than others, just like people like some people more than others. We don't think like cats, so it's hard to explain why a cat would like one person more than another. Then again, it's sometimes hard to explain why we like one person more than another. Bill I agree with Bill. My Tucker, for some reason *loves* my youngest sister, who doesn't visit very often. One time, she had a car accident and spent the night at my place. I had to lock Tucker in my bedroom so she could sleep! Rene |
