Good old Jack our scruffy 12 yr old moggy strolls in through the front door, trots directly over to where im sitting, lets out a little yelp & jumps up into my lap for a snooze. Do cats have good memories or what?
Jack is quite a cranky old boy, he'd never sit on my parent's laps. Think they were a wee bit jealous.:D Occasionally he'll sit on my brothers lap also but very rarely.

People who say cats are cold, unaffectionate animals are so wrong.

You can't make a cat like you but when they do like you, they let you know.:pac:

My brother has a theory that Jack sees my folks as providers & alpha leaders & sees himself and me as sort of siblings? Is that possible?

My parents' cat comes out to meet my car any time I call! I do think they remember.

Thats so sweet, especially seeing as he is a grumpy sod!!

We had a kitten when I was a child who used to tear the arms and face off anyone that came near him if that was his form, but he would go to a snotty, drooling lump when my brother picked him up. He ran away, so my parents claim anyway (the cat not my brother)
