I'm wondering if anyone has any insight into my cats behaviour. She's a beautiful cat. We got her 3 years ago for my DS when his sister started school and he was a bit lonely at home without her.
We all love her but she is definitely his cat and he's her boy. She's always in the same room as him and follows him up to bed each night, where she sleeps on the end of his bed. If he's upset she will sit with him and generally look quite concerned.
She might give the rest of the family the odd swipe if we've annoyed her but she never does this to him.
She loves to pad and does this at least once or twice a day often with loud purring, dribbling and sometimes burrowing under the duvet. Now the strange bit is that she never pads my DS (it's usually his sister). He's noticed this and thinks it means she doesn't love him.
I've not really been able to explain why she doesn't pad him so I'm asking here!!!
Just to add, she's not really a cuddly cat the rest of the time. It's only when she's padding that you get to have a bit of stroke so although they're always together he doesn't really get to make a fuss of her.
