“I saw your cat around today,” says another neighbour.
“Oh yes?” says I, brimming with pride.
“He’s not a people cat is he? He always runs away!”
“Er..”
“He doesn’t like being touched. He’s not a people cat at all!”
Charlie says: I am what I am
It's like when a book on Amazon for eg, gets rave reviews then starts getting bad ones and you realise not everyone will like this particular book. Then again sometimes some negative things are best left unsaid!
Nearly the weekend, bloggie friends!

Charlie - you're beautiful!
Well I say that Charlie will known who are cat people and who are not. If he choses not to talk with them they are probably not. charlie is his own man.. Hugs GJ xx
I think I'm a people cat but not the mini one..MOL
Have a great day, Charlie and Mommy
xoxo
I like negative things to be left unsaid...
Maybe your neighbor isn't a real cat person?
Reviews are such a mixed bag; there's honesty, there's friends-as-reviews, and there's just meanness.
Charlie got his own pride!!!
heheheh...
You got that right! Charlie is like Popeye "I am what I am and that's ALL that I am!" Charlie doesn't have to answer to ANYONE for how he is, that is what makes us unique, we all have our issues!
My Bobo was the same way. He was BEYOND affectionate to those he liked, others, not so much! I loved that he was selective.
Our Sheltie is also quite selective. He won't allow everyone to pet him. Once he knows you and likes you yes, he is more aloof.
People say rude things about him not being friendly (and they did with Bobo too)
All that matters is that they love US!
((((hugs))))))
Anyone who wants a people cat should just get themselves a dog.
Everyone has an opinion and it is theirs to have. I really like this picture of Charlie he looks prideful.
Cats are so themselves. :o) I guess that's why we love them!
And sorry I missed your birthday--I've been swallowed up by real life--but I was thinking of you. Happy belated birthday!
Here's to a beautiful day on the other side of the pond!
Of course he's not a people cat! He's got too much feline sense for that! He just concentrates on what he does best - looking gorgeous.
He's a cat. They don't like being man-handled.
Your neighbour's not a cat person is he? Not a cat person at all.
:)
Ah, well... cats are that way: aloof, mysterious, non-chalant. But that's why we love them. Dog peeps just don't understand our cats. :)
Maybe Charlie simply has good taste and would prefer not to associate with said neighbour. :-)
Oh Charlie, how could anyone say that about you. But good thing you act like that. We don't want anyone to steal you. Not good to be touched by strangers. Hope you two have a very fine day.
Charlie is beautiful. He's too proud to just let anyone touch him. I give him 5 stars.
He's a sensible cat is Charlie. I wouldn't want my cats being too friendly with others to be on the safe side :O)
Charlie, you just be you, we love you that way! Hey, I think a lot of the negative reviews are posted by competitors...I've notices several negative reviews are worded almost the same.
Charlie says he is indeed a people cat. He's just finicky, like Morris the Cat.
Don't worry Charlie - we love you even if you don't like too many people. :)
Aww, Charlie - we love you no matter what!
Great example with the Amazon! :)
Non-people cats rock.
*chuckling* Poor Charlie... getting a poor review... he should have told them that his behavior was really HIM giving THEM a bad review.
(Cali's review would go something like this: Your cat's insane. She bit me.)
I think some neighbours aren't cat people...Charlie is perfect the way he is. :D
That's right Charlie, we love you for what are, not for what your not!!
xxoo

You ARE what you are, Charlie! Wonderful like your housemate!! This is an interesting post in view of the fact that a few days ago Jen and I watched a movie called This is What I Am that we watched through Netflix. It was awesome.
Have an awesome Friday, you two!!

I love Charlie... I love his reaction....This post reminds me of when Alex had his surgery... Marc called the vet to see how he was doing, and if we could pick him up later that day. the vet replied,you can come get him now, he wants to come home. When we got there the staff asked who our pet was, and when we told them, they replied, oh, Alex... You guys can get him from the back yourself. He doesnt like us too much....
Maybe his/her hands were not too clean :-)
We've got a new kitten. Come and take a look?
And Charlie should be proud of who he is.
Have a great weekend :)
Poor Charlie, having 'inferior' types trying to hassle him!
Seems to us that Charlie is a pretty smart little boy. He knows the good guys from the bad ones.
Charlie's adorable!
I have a dog that doesn't play well with others, but she loves us and we love her to pieces.
Have a great weekend!
I give Charlie 5 stars, too! He never runs from me and always looks good in photos. He's a sweetie!
Hugs and snuggles for Charlie.
Take care...:)
Silly Charlie. Nope, he's not a people cat. He's a Jennifer Cat! ;)

A lot of cats aren't people cats! Good thing Charlie doesn't mind being admired from afar! He's adapted to the 'net beautifully! :)
Did you get a bad review? That sucks. I wish I could read something you wrote.
We think you are stunning! You look a lot like our beangirl's cat!
Happy Weekend...

Charlie is a people person. But maybe your neighbours isn't a cat person!
We all love you, Charlie.

In the words of my mom, if you can't say something nice......don't say anything!
I watched my cat catch and eat a bird in my back yard. She's quite the hunter. It was as horrifying as it was entertaining. The circle of life.
Pah. Critics.
AW....Charlie is just a discerning cat, that is all! he is a "people person" for you, and that is all that counts!
