No matter what you name him, most often you will just be calling him "cat" because that is just the way it is.

I dunno. At least with "Asshole" you KNOW what he's all about. With cats, you can't really tell. The little bastard can be plotting your death or he could be contemplating the backs of his paws.  :shrug:

This cat has serious behavior problems.  It will brush up against me but if I try to touch it, it gets mad and tries to bat or claw at me.  It's been almost three weeks and we have made very little progress.

It's still not insane like the feral cat an old roomate picked up.

Unless he is hissing at you, he is not mad, but wanting to play. You need to seriously get some cat toys for the little guy...

He wants attention. Let him crawl up next to you, and scratch him gently on his side. Cats don't like to have you come directly at their heads with your hand, unless they are very used to it. Your little guy isn't yet.

Brushing up against your legs is his way of "greeting" you or wanting your attention. So is turning his rear end toward you and/or having his tail quiver. The tail quiver means he's really happy to see you.

Out of our 3, only one likes to be picked up and held, and she prefers to be held against chest and shoulder just like a baby. The other two, prefer to crawl up onto us, and then attach like slugs....but it needs to be their idea.

This cat is ****ing retarded.  It saw its reflection in a mirror I had on the floor and started running head-first into said mirror.  Stupid-ass.

I'm very late to this thread - name him Grady. 

My cats always love it when I lay on the floor.  They will come up to me and try to play.  Of course, your little guy sounds like he might take advantage of the situation and rip your nose off.

I think this thing is in heat, which is why he's being so annoying.  I haven't had a chance to take him to the vet yet.
