[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you ever had cats before?  They are not dogs.  Just because they don't let you hold them doesn't mean they're not bonded to you.  That said, it sounds like you really don't care about them, so I would look at surrendering them to one of the many rescue organizations around here.  We got our two cats from Lost Dog and Cat Rescue - they are a great organization.  [/quote]

Op here. Hoping to meet the actual person(s) they would go to, so I don't want to resort to giving them to a rescue org. We got them from a rescue org,[b] one that misled us into believing the cats 'would come around' to being loving[/b]. [/quote]

This is such a strange statement and one I have a hard time understanding a rescue org would say. I would think they might have said they wouldn't been so skittish or scared after awhile, but loving?  You can never guarantee that with cats.  They love you in their own way, but not all cats will love to be held, sit on your lap, sleep with you.  It just isn't how cats are. [/quote]

It’s not how cats are , it’s how people are.

If you’re nice and fun and you play with the cats when they are young you get playful cats that love you and snuggle with you.

If you’re a stiff, dumb jerk with the cats and don’t play with them and lock them in a room/the basement or whatever you get unloving cats who don’t play.

It’s YOU, not them.  Cats are naturally intensely playful and loving - it’s just that stupid uptight  people squash their spirits for them. [/quote]
