I don't think LKH really has any experience with domestic cats. But in all honesty she doesn't sound like a cat person to me. She's probably one of those people who think that a cat's natural aloofness and independence must mean that it's cold and doesn't care about people. This is the woman who likes to write men who are completely and utterly dependent on her for every little thing, she couldn't handle a cat. The first time the cat is not at the door to greet her when she comes home, she'd probably freak out and write a horribly angsty blog about how her cat despises her.
LKH: I'm home! Everyone gather around and love me...where's the cat? Jon: She's on the window, sleeping. LKH: But I just came home! I've been gone all day, surely my cat misses me? Doesn't she miss me, why isn't she here rubbing up against me like the weres of my stories? Doesn't she need my touch and love to keep on living? Jon: She found a nice sunny patch. LKH: Doesn't she love me? Why isn't she here at my feet to prove her absolute devotion to me? Jon: She also threw up on the bed. LKH: NOBODY LOVES ME! I AM ALL ALONE IN THE DARKNESS WITH NO ONE TO COMFORT ME!
