I looked after a friend's cat that would want to be near and liked pets but rarely cuddles. Although would very occasionally have a rest on my lap when I was on the couch.
Yeah, mine rarely do this. That would be nice. They would rather sleep right next to my face at night or in my crotch or on my legs, which doesn't bode well with night twitches....
I have the same issue. My Vivian is sooooo needy it's rediculous. I cannot even go to the bathroom without her crying for me. As a kid I wanted a cat so loving, but this is getting to be a bit much. Still love her to death, but she is captain needy
Walked into a shelter Dec 2015. We were looking for a kitten. That day 2 came in. Brothers from the same litter. 7-ish weeks old. We obviously couldn't separate them. They were adorable and different in their own ways. We called one "pointy" and one "soft." We unexpectedly lost "soft" Sat Mar 23rd. We love "pointy" but he just doesn't cuddle the way his brother did. The hurt is still raw. Treasure your floofs.
I don't think it is, but it can be tiresome when the cat has to be in the middle of anything you do. Especially when it means waking you up repeatedly to find the comfiest spot directly on your legs/chest/face lol
My dog used to be a cuddler. He'd crawl on top of me, then flop over into the crook of my arm and pass out. Now I couldn't even bribe him for cuddles. Enjoy the cuddles, don't complain.
I mean sometimes you need to work or want to look at your phone or watch TV but the chonky cat just wanna be purring in your face all the time. He's a good boy but full time face cat isn't practical.
Our ginger is a perpetual cuddler. Makes it real hard to game, eat or sleep. Oh and he guards my SO in the shower despite being afraid of it, which is sad-cute.
I two cats for me and similar. Still, I love having the fur baby in my arms when they want to snuggle or sleep on it near me. They are the best form of affection and I like them far more than the typical human.

If a critter gets in the house, my fat kid just smacks them unconscious and lays on them. His slightly smaller brother smacks them until dead. Both are very clean killers. The smallest, the step brother….well he leaves bloody crime scenes from one room to another.
I live in the country. They are barn cats that showed up for the food and stayed for the spoils. You keep a barn cat indoors. Here's a Karmachameleon who comes and goes. A little love fer the barn kitties.
I keep both my ferals indoors, but I get why people with actual, active farms want cats for literal pets control. They do adapt quite well, though. The ex-dominant tom of the colony is currently sleeping in his cat bed by my elbow and hasn't been outside in weeks; we play with him and he's happy inside! Same with my girl!
Have a “barn cat”. Was dumped as a kitten, no rescue would take her, no one wanted her, was spayed and released. We feed her and vet her and bring her in at night. Have found plenty of dead rodents, mostly eaten, some just dead, and one dead garter snake. Never have seen evidence of bird kills. Did see a hawk get a bird and signs of bird on bird predations, but never from her. We have rough shin hawks, red tail and coopers hawks and barred owls. And crows. The birds are too wary for cats to get
Plus barred owls, hawks, and coyotes kill cats. Opossums kill kittens and so will raccoons. We have all of them. Don’t dump your kittens and cats in the country, find them homes and fix any cats and dogs you acquire. My bf and I are asthmatic and can’t keep cats in the house and people in the country will feed them because we aren’t monsters like the people who dump them, but we can’t give them all homes.

My cats will complain about anything they don't have, but when they have it, they don't want it.
OP sounds just like a cat.
Maybe three cats. In a bathrobe.

I used to have two cats. One was a cuddlier and the other was not.

Lol I have the cat that sits in the corner and stares. I'm totally jealous of this person 😆

I have one too. Would never trade her for anything in the world.

What caused the change?
JacobsJ52
A series of unfortunate events.
JacobsJ52
Short of it is the dog went from living with all 4 of us (me, gf, her 2 kids) to just me. I think he's got pupTSD from losing 3/4 of his "pack"
ThatsUnpossible
That is the opposite of a problem, just can't please some people
AtmaDarkwolf
yes, these people are the true cat lovers.. they are just like the cats they own, never fully happy :D

My husband had to put a cat bed between his keyboard and mine for his cat to sleep in b/c he was doing this.

Lol unfortunately I do not have the space. I usually let her stay there, she is a cat afterall, who am I to argue?

Outdoor cat people are irresponsible and inconsiderate.

You should probably be keeping them inside, for their own safety, and for your local ecosystem's safety.

No.

Yeah. Come on, Sonshade. We all know your cats are fly tipping and illegally dumping chemicals into the river system.
