10. She most definitely is.

But she is also very sweet and affectionate. When she love bombs me at my desk and it is not feeding time, I know that the affection is sincere and that she is not just carrying out feline suck up behavior.

Also, if I am up longer than she thinks I should be, she paces around the bed. As soon as I lie down on it, she leaps onto it and snuggles my face.

The one thing that she has never done in her 7 years is to wake me up for her feeding, even when I oversleep. But, as soon as I am up, she rushes to the kitchen to pace in front of the cupboard.

She also does something that is unique and amusing. When she is really eager for feeding, like when I oversleep, and she sees me getting her food out, her tail goes straight up in the air and vibrates, from her rump to the tip of the tail. She is 1/4 Egyptian Mau and that trait is unique to Maus, referred to as the Mau wiggle tail. They do it when they are very excited about something that they anticipate.

She also does it sometimes when she sees that I am going to interact with her with one of her favorite toys.
