My eleven year old orange tabby likes to follow me around the house in the morning while I’m getting ready for work. And if she happens to be outside at the time I get home from work, she will greet me in the driveway.
The wife swears she knows the sound of my car. :) And sometimes I swear this cat is part dog!
I had neighbor cat who would greet me when I came home if she happened to be out and about. She would run up from out of nowhere and insist that I pick her up, practically jumping into my arms, and then would purr and purr. Oh man what a sweet cat she was — all black except a white spot on her chest. She was exceptional in that she was full gonzo with the purring and snuggles but never got bitey. Then the neighbors moved away and she was gone.
