Have I offended my cat?

[FlowersAndShit]

I got my adult cat yesterday, he's settling in really well, eating like a horse, using his litter tray etc. Whenever I go into a room that he is in, he immediately walks out of the room into another. WTF have I done to deserve that!?

A cat does not associate with lowly humans.

You are a human. A lesser species. He will pretend to love you when he wants something.

I didn't even need to read your post to be able answer, yes. Having said that he probably just wants some alone time to find his place.

Even existing offends a cats' sensibilities.

He sounds normal. He'll accept your existence when he wants his litter tray cleaning and his food bowl filled, then will go back to ignoring you immediately afterwards.

He's made his immediate surroundings a priority and will make is mind up about the humans sharing the space in time.

Haha, what a little toad he is!
