That's because they exhibit all the right body language to be friendly with cats. Looking excessively at a cat's face, touching it, paying attention to it, it's all very rude in cat terms. It's basically getting all up in their face and being aggressive or dominant. But if you just sort of sit there and don't look at them, you're saying you're not going to hurt them, you're not stressed to have them there, you're open to being approached.

This explains so much about my fiance's mother's cats! =D<3 I love our cat to death, but I am not nearly the animal person that my fiance's family is, to the point that they're actually convinced that I don't like cats, which I feel bad about, because our cat was my fiance's cat when he was 13 until he moved out, and I hate to think that they think I don't give him enough love.

Run-on sentence is awful.

	But it certainly gets your point across! LOL! I find cat behaviour utterly fascinating, I could read about it for hours. And I have. nod (Reply to this)(Parent)
