Their ability is uncanny.

It's because people who don't like cats don't look at them, and cats consider that a signal, to like that person.

NO MORE INVITATIONS FOR YOU! Priorities! Hey, Game Boy! Get a NEW girlfriend!

I would love to give the cutie a great big hug.

The individual in question is not cat approved.

Because cats are independent,they do what they want,and don't see anyone as thier superior or master.

Anyone hell bent on controlling a cat who has not earned the cat's trust will pay in blood and pain for trying.

Cats have no biological pack urges like dogs do.


Wonder if thier cat hating is telling about a bit of an authoritarian
stance somewhere in their personality.

Allergies, unfamiliarity and phobia's
excluded.

Cat haters that won't begrudge a cat a lap when they visit are to be scrutinized.Cat haters are no freinds of mine. If a person can't show any kindness to animals they are not welcome in my house. Because I hate narcissism, sociopaths and authoritarian personality types,and I avoid them like the plague they are.

My hubby is horribly allergic to cats. When we walk into the house of a cat owner, I'll be calling out "here kitty!" and instead of coming to me, the cat invariably jumps into hubby's lap.

...very polite about the whole thing.

One of ours would be trying to wrap himself around her neck.
