We adopt stray cats so have had many different personalities, from clinging/needy to indifference. The nicest ones are loving but far more independent than dogs.
You can see "my" kitty on my profile. She loves to be around me but at a little distance. Right now she is curled up on a nearby windowsill in the sunshine. She loves to be brushed but hates to be cuddled and will struggle to be put down, then rub up against my ankles. She wants affection but on her terms.
Your Kitty is so cute....My little Zorro is my sunshine, he's very spoiled, he's demamanding wants love on his terms and he hates to be alone! whenever we are getting ready to leave and he sees suitcases by the door he starts to act-up becomes needy and of course I feel so guilty!
