My Saturday mornings are the best part of my week - sleep in, then cuddle with my dog for a while before heading downstairs. I know she loves me, and I sure do love her too.

For instance, my current kitty hates it when I cuddle him. Very standoffish. So when he sees me coming into the room, he always puts his head down, closes his eyes and "pretends" to be sleeping. At first, I fell for this sleek ploy. But after a few times of actually catching him awake and licking himself prior to seeing me coming, I am now on to him!!

I fail to see what is at all endearing about this.

He leaves his crap all over the litter box.
He constantly takes me for granted. It's like he now expects I'm going to be the one to fix breakfast and dinner every night. And it's not like he works. I come home exhausted from a day of work and basically the first question is, "Where the hell is my dinner?"
He doesn't pay attention to the things that are important to me. Case in point, I like my things on the bedside table to be organized a certain way, and I find he constantly has moved things around or just tossed my stuff on the floor.
He doesn't listen to me. I will find he'll just glaze over when I'm talking to him and sometimes will even close his eyes when I'm mid sentence.
Then there is the issue of trust. I'll wake up in the middle of the night and he's nowhere to be found, and he acts like I'm insane when I question him about where he's been.

This thread has been a real eye opener...
