'He's never let anyone pet him, except for me': Person who's spent 3 years bonding with stray cat is now moving but doesn't want to leave the cat behind, the internet backs his desire to adopt the stray

As people who actually own cats, we know that when people say that cats are not affectionate creatures, they don't know what the heck they are talking about. Cats are incredibly affectionate. Cats love their humans truly and fully. And if you don't believe that, then you have clearly never seen a cat have a favorite human. Because oh, they have them. 

Some cats are affectionate to everyone - we call them velcro cats, and so you can't tell, maybe it's just the cat's purrsonality. But other cats hate everyone… except their chosen humans. They will hiss at everyone else, but with their faves, they will cuddle, they will purr, they will follow them around everywhere. These bonds are unbreakable. Once you are chosen, it's over, you will have that cat's love for literally forever. And if you create that bond with a stray cat… that cat is stray no more. That cat is yours, and it is coming with you everywhere.
