my sister/roommate has a cat. he's annoying as all hell. i'm home all day, and he follows me around, yowling (he must have some siamese in him, he's a screamer) and whining and trying to crawl into my lap any time i sit down. at first i think he did it because he was lonely and missed my sister, but now it seems he's genuinely become attached to ME. ack! she comes home and he still wants my attention. it's horrible. i dont even like cats. i push him away and he comes back, heck i've even kicked him, hissed at him, done everything short of significantly injure him and he keeps...coming...back. to make things worse, my computer is currently on the floor. he thinks that's great; he wants to sit on my lap AND my keyboard at the same time. ugh.
before we moved (six months ago) there were two kitties and also a dog. that may be why he's so lonely. but my sister insists we cant get any other animals, because he's such a bully. we had to give away a younger cat because this beast was so cruel to it. he even takes on my parents' german shepherd -- and wins. so much for my getting a poodle.
