why does this cat act like a dog?

it's not that i don't like dogs. it's just that what so many people find attractive about them--their undying loyalty--i find irritating. dogs are always up in your business, wanting attention, love, pets. cats, however, leave you alone. they entertain themselves, they are independent creatures. i admire this, and prefer occasional aloofness to constant dog slobber.

i agreed to take care of my friend's cat for two years. for the most part, vlad, is a very good guest-cat. he gets along with my cat as if they were apart of the same litter, and for that i'm very thankful. he is more dog than cat, though, and i struggle with this fact from time-to-time.

never have i seen a more acurate portrayl of me attempting to be on the computer, watch tv, read a book, or eat dinner:
