Cats like Bobby are why felines are considered mysterious. He has sudden bursts of energy between slow strolls around his territory, punctuated by lots of cuddles with other cats. He has been a momma’s boy from the very beginning, and often follows his mom through her day. He didn’t accept the resident cat until she initiated a game of hide-and-seek with him. Once he realized they could play the ambush game, he decided she was okay and they could be friends. When strangers visit, he stays in the room with the new person, but keeps his distance. He does take to cat-lovers who speak the special language of letting cats be the boss. At meal time, he takes a mouthful of food, growls in triumph, then walks to a separate space to eat. He also growls when chasing little puff ball toys or feathers, with a particularly loud growl/purr when he walks off with his trophy. He will rest on a bed with calm dogs, and will even approach calm and quiet dogs, but he still needs time to accept any dog coming toward him. He takes time to adjust to changes in his environment, and usually watches how other cats deal with new situations before he tries them.
