Oh but they always seem to go to the people that don't like them!
Don't know if it's true, but I have heard that cats don't like being looked at.
So people who like them look at them and people who don't try to avoid looking at them, so the cat goes to sit on the people who don't like them !

Yes I have heard that too. I have always owned cats and I am pretty sure there is some element of truth to it, cats are very contrary creatures though!

Oh that's mean! My last cat lived to be 21..
That's a very good age !
My first cat, born on the same day as me, lived til we were 17 and then got killed by a van. the van driver was devastated, bless, and stopped and cried.
Then our last cat, Letitia Fuzzlebumps was about 23, according to wifey , died in my arms.
They're lovely, but maybe I get too attached.
It hurts when they go.

When cats are angry with each other they look their opponent deep in the eyes. They stare at each other. It is a threat.
So when people stare in a cat eyes the cat might think that she or he is threatened and it`s wiser to go away.
But when cat`s are friendly with each other, they look down and blink with their eyes. That`s what people do when they don`t like cats and want no contact with them. But the cat thinks that the opposite is meant ....:rolleyes:
That is the big mistake between cats and humans.:D

That and covering oneself with cat food.

Always had them back in the UK.
In the country we used to have three or four at a time, later just the one.
My best friend Paul's cats were also a big part of my life and he still sends pics of his latest cat, Jaime, whom i met last time i was in England but wasn't as friendly as the previous cat he had, the marvelous Wolsey. :<3:
