“Cats don’t care”
Not my little sweetie pie! They like to play independent but they know the hand that feeds them. That’s their adaptation. To cater to the humans just enough to get catered to in return. I like to watch when my cat is ignoring me. She thinks I don’t know but I can see her prehensile ear swiveling around and tracking my movements as I talk. :-)
