Hermione is one of those snobby cats that know they are better then you. She ignores you if you talk to her, she refuses to be held, she hates to be pet for more then three minutes and will give you dirty looks and the evil eye if you sit in her 'chair'. But her 'chair' is also her mellow zone. If she is in her chair then she loves to be pet, she grooms my hand, she falls asleep and lets you rub her belly. But as soon as she steps of that chair she is little miss snob again.
