My cat is not like that at all. He's in the same room as me most of the time. He sleeps on my bed the whole night. Every day, when I come home, he waits at the door and immediately starts headbutting my leg once I sneak one through the door frame. I can't even take a dump without him meowing behind the door, asking to be let in, so we can hang out.

He's also a huge jerk, of course, but a wonderful chap overall.
