I swear, I get the vibe from my cats that

they're my daughters
one i get the vibe from that she's my old lady (which literally she is but the wife connotation is highly questionable)

What is the relationship in the felid mind? I've never gotten the sense that I'm a "master" despite the fact they know when I get annoyed with them or what is forbidden and they mostly come to honor that (turns out nobody or anything likes getting hassled)

I think of my cat as a lovable, kind of stupid, little brother. He usually wants to be involved in whatever I'm doing , follows me around the apartment, and so on. But also sometimes he just decides to do something ridiculous like climb into the dresser and get stuck.

I'm not sure how he thinks of me exactly. Seems affectionate!
