Cat Personalities


Cats can have all types of personalities, but it seems no matter what the personality, it is always strong. My older cat, Cleo, wants to do nothing but cuddle and sit on everyone’s lap. She wants attention 100% of the time. The younger cat, Gracie, plays hard to get. She will come up to you and act like she wants a pet, but as soon as you go to pet her she runs away. She also gets into everything in the house and is amazed with the other animals. She will sit on top of my turtle tank and reach her paw in all the way to her shoulder trying to bop him. Eventually she will give up and lay on top of his tank. Then whenever he moves even the tiniest bit she gets scared, jumps about two feet into the air, and takes off running to another room. She will also spend countless hours watching the guinea pigs and trying to reach into their cage. 

Here are a couple pictures of Gracie. One is of her laying on the turtle tank and the other her poking in at the guinea pigs.




Every time I think of cat personalities I end up on Youtube watching videos of cats doing silly things. Here are two of my favorite cat compilation videos that always give me a good laugh. I did not make these videos, I just enjoy them.

  1. I must admit that I am not a big cat fan but definitely agree they have a strong personality. Every cat I have met always seems to do what it wants. They don't listen to anybody. They are pretty bossy animals but yet loved by many. The good thing about them is that they are mostly self-sufficient. They can be left alone for a longer time period than dogs.

  2. I agree that each cat has their own personality. I once had two cats. One would nag me and the other was a social butterfly. They are completely different then dogs. Cats do something and make us feel like we just need to deal with it. While if you yell at a dog, or they do something wrong you can see the guilt. It is amazing what little characters cats are.

  3. Every cat I've ever known has had a very distinct personality. I find that whenever you get more than one cat owner in a room together, there's always a lengthy conversation about those personalities. My two are as different as night and day; one's grumpy, demanding, and possessively affectionate, and the other is quiet yet playful, kind of a trickster, and curious.

  4. I think it is great that you are in tune to their personalities.
