I've worked with and shared my home with much worse kitty purrsonalities so he wouldn't phase me in the least.

I have scars on my ankles and arms from my cat attacking me when I don't obey him quickly enough. He was so insistent about going out whenever he wanted, when we built our new house we put in cat doors for him - but sometimes he wants to go out the human doors anyway, so we HAVE to open them for him.

Now that he is 15 he's mellowed slightly. He still considers that he has ownership of my desk chair at night and if I stay up too late reading DU, he will attack me consistently until I give it to him. Recently he's decided that the cheap canned cat food is not good enough. My husband had made the mistake of buying some fancier brands off the clearance table. Now my cat refuses to eat the cheaper food and will only eat the fancy stuff in the little cans.

When he was a four ounce ball of fluff he ran the house and terrified my husband's twenty pound full grown cat. It took years before the older cat would stay in the same room as mine. After the older cat passed away (at the age of eighteen) we thought about getting another cat and decided that until my cat is gone. We're worried an adult cat would run away and a kitten would be in mortal danger.

While I complain about my cat, I love him and he will have a home until he passes away. But damn, I wish I had a more cuddly, sweet tempered cat that allowed me to pet him without drawing blood!
