Today has been a rough one. Melbcat guarded me while I sat in the shower and then curled up in my dressing gown with me to share a nap.

I don’t understand how people think cats are cold or aloof

Cats are neither cold nor aloof, they just don't obsessively crave human approval.

It's invariably self-identified 'dog people' who talk shit about cats. And tbh the way they do makes me think they shouldn't have dogs either

Hugs. I have never known cats to be aloof, they are just picky in wh they care for
