  • I understand cats deeply, and some are just assholes and I love those ones, too. One of my cats is a jerk who only loves me and regularly bites other people who try to pet him more than a couple times, or who walk by him without announcing their presence or holding their hand out so he can sniff it and grant passage, most notably my wife. He has been immensely patient with my young child in a way he is with nobody else.

    I think OP understands cats quite well. This is totally wholesome and relatable to people who actually love cats enough to adopt and appreciate even the surly ones. They have a very wide range of temperaments, much like people, many of whom are assholes. When I adopted my little asshole, his foster name was the same as a mob boss because “He is the boss, he makes the rules. Also he’s a bit bitey” and I was like, “hell yeah, give me that little shithead” and I’d do it again. I have a different cat I can wear as a hat. This post is not about cats like that.
