We have a cat who is about 9 months old.
When we got him he was very timid (he was 11 weeks). He is desexed as he was done a few days before we got him. When we went to choose him from the litter he was screaming to get away (his siblings were just as timid too). We have obvously had him since he was young. His behavour now is, every morning when i wake up he runs out of the bedroom and follows me to the toilet. He rubs against my legs while i go and pee.
He will be all snuggly (he is not a lap cat btw) but rub himself against us and then during the day he will run past us and won't let us touch him. He becomes all snuggly again late at night.
When we got him we couldn't touch him and he used to poop on the floor if he got scared in anyway, he has grown out of that which is great. He has a sister and they love each other very much. They play eat, poop together and very much rely on each others company but she is very much a lap cat. Of late he has been coming into the computer room with us at night, laying on the lounge, lets us pat him and so on and each morning (this is only new) he will jump on our bed (which is something he never did) and he will watch me get dressed for work each morning.
That is his way of doing things and we just think it is great that he's coming out of his shell, although we are just wondering would anyone have any ideas as to why he is loving morning and night yet during the day doesn't want a barr of us? it's just strange !!
BTW this afternoon my fiancee and i decided to lie down and sleep for a while and i grabbed him and put him on the bed where my legs usually are, and he stayed there the whole time we couldn't believe it, it was very nice to have him enjoy family time with us..
