I wish I could text my cat

If cats could text you back
They would not

I think i read that somewhere.

Spoken like a dog lover who doesn’t get cats. Many… dare I say even most cats would. Not constantly, not in an obsessively needy way, but they do love you and want to be around you and want to know where you are. They do actually care.

Exactly. Cats are extremely affectionate. If we’re away from our cat in another room for a long period, he’ll carry his toy mouse while yowling. Once he finds us, he drops it near us and we’ll get head bumps and tail hugs.

The cats that don’t seem to be affectionate could be for owners that don’t really know how to interact with them properly. Or the ones that just let them roam around, don’t engage them or try enrichment, etc.

Dogs are loving and affectionate by default but cats just need a bit of love and affection back to get there.

Mine would, to complain that they're hungry, two hours before their feeding time.

When you call a dog, they come running all excited to know why one of their favorite humans wanted their attention.

When you call a cat, you get a voicemail recorded yawn that translates to: "Please leave a message, and I will get back to you sometime on Tuesday after my second nap, maybe, if you forgot to fill my food bowl. Fucking dumbass deaf horrible hunting Thumb!"

Edit: Yes, I am implying that cats have racial slurs for every species including their ~~owners~~ slaves, and are little psychopathic assholes about it.

IDK maybe your cat just doesn't like you
