Hi everyone,
I have 2 male cats, Tuffy and Sam. Tuffy is 2 years old, and Sam is 8 months. I've had them both since they were kittens. My problem is with Sam. Sam loves all my kids and will happily climb onto their laps for a cuddle and a pat. When I try to cuddle him, he won't have anything to do with it. If I pick him up, he struggles to get away from me. I've had lots of cats over the years, and once they leave kittenhood, most of them end up the same as Sam - they love everyone but me !. Tuffy used to be like Sam, but for no particular reason, he has decided that I'm not so bad after all. I am the main feeder of all our animals, and when the cats want to know me, it's if they think I'm going to fed them. I have 2 maltese dogs who are my shadows, but Sam likes them both - So I'm mystified as to why I'm so unpopular. Any ideas would be really appreciated.
