Overly Affectionate Cat Doesn't Understand Personal Space (Viral Thread)

Whoever started the rumor that cats are not affectionate clearly has never owned a cat. Cats are very affectionate - they just choose their preferred times for being affectionate, and they're picky with who they love, just like we are. It's part of what makes us love them so much. When a cat is affectionate with you, you've earned it, and for that, it feels so much better.

This cat who went viral on imgur is one who is so affectionate, his owner ItsMoni is even calling him overly affectionate with no perception of personal space. And the internet, as have we, has fallen in love with this cat. Because it's almost as wholesome and heartwarming to watch a cat love its owner as it is to be loved by one yourself.

"Does anyone else have a really needy cat that doesn't understand personal space? Every morning I wake up to seeing my door slightly open, some hefty foot steps and then BAM! A fat cat appears. Staring me dead in the eyes. "

"That or he meows at my door until I open it. He then proceeds to get as close as possible to my face and make himself comfortable, even though he has a designated spot on my bed. He demands cuddles and will get upset if I don't oblige.
The following are videos I've captured over the years of Sylvester doing what he does best."

"Love waking up to a rogue claw."

"From an outside view this looks cute, but you can't see his claws digging into my neck."

via ItsMoni
07
"He always has to be touching at least a part of me."

"After 15 minutes of cuddling he's done. He turns around or moves to his spot and acts like I don't exist for the next few hours. This happens everyday. He does this cute thing where he covers his eyes. *Sound on for kitty snores*"

via ItsMoni

"And then at night when I'm watching tv on the couch he jumps up and starts again."

"Sometimes I wonder if this is what parents feel like when babies sleep on them. It's the best feeling."

"I guess he's cute or whatever. But I'm also pretty sure he knows he's cute, so I don't like to give him that satisfaction. Like he's very full of himself and self-aware. "

"Anyone else have an overly affectionate cat? Even if you don't, I would love to hear about your cat (or dog or whatever pet). What are they like? Are they an asshole? What's your favorite thing about them?"
