They are such cuties, Chemar!

I read a while back some cat expert book, who claimed that the more
physical handling/attention paid to kittens, the more "interesting" and
dog like (coming when called, following on hikes, etc)... the cats become.
MrsD, I think I believe that there is probably a big difference depending upon their environment in those formative years (months). Our Tony cat was given so much attention. My husband was still in school with just a couple classes and had a lot of free time. Tony used to ride on his shoulder all the time, while he did dishes, walked around, etc. She had a lot of 'dog like' qualities in temperment, although I know the cat 'aloofness' is fairly stereotype. I would agree a lot depends on their 'childhood'.
