The Friends

I am a little contradictory, if you think about behavior and personality.
I am a bully, a macho-man, aggressive with other cats (I will return to this point later), and I have the tendency to impose my desires over my humms (I do it in a very easy way. For example, it’s I who decides how much of the bed I will use every night). At the same time, I talk with them a lot, sometimes I show that I love them and I’m always near them when they are at home.
Nothing unusual, isn’t it true?! But, if any stranger arrives, everything changes.
I can’t explain why I act in this way, but I am very shy with people that I don’t know and my first reaction in the presence of someone new is to run away and hide myself.
After a while, I finally approach the stranger and I try to sniff him or her and I can even lick him or her – what amuses my humms.
I believe that part of this behavior is a result of a trauma in my childhood. I was abandoned. And by my humms, can you believe it?!?!
Without warning, they put a lot of clothes in cases and disappeared for 3 complete weeks.
I was just beginning to become used to their presence and they made a trip, without asking my opinion about it. This was a disrespectful, rude and irresponsible behavior, that’s what I think.
The good part is that they asked some friends to show up and take care of me. Sora and Ana came every day, and they played a lot with me with paper balls or little toys, and they cleaned my litter box and fed me great amounts of good food. Excepted that I was really missing my humms, I was having a very good time.
Well, eventually, they returned. I decided to show them that I didn’t like what they did, so I stayed away from them for some days (I only climbed on the bed in the middle of the night, but I don’t think they ever noticed it) and it worked: They promised me that they would never again make long trips without me.
I thought this was a great victory. Actually, I should have asked them to promise that they would never make any trip, but I only realized my mistake when it was too late.
