If you want a lap cat, get a ragdoll.

Your average American alleycat was bred for generations to be a mouser not to cuddle.

I adopted a parking lot cat once, took me me four months to get that cat to trust me and when I got her home she turned into eight. She was more like a dog than a cat, greeted me at the door, played fetch until I was burned out and wanted to be on me every chance she got. I would have thought that she was a Ragdoll from her looks and demeanor but not one of the kittens shared her traits.

Back in the 1970s my brother was leaving work about midnight and a little orange kitten followed him to his car and was meowing like crazy. He took her home and the cat lived for 19 years. Tigger was so spoiled.
