people who say that have either never owned a cat or never truly tried to bond with theirs. my cat rubs on me and purrs when i'm crying, guards the bathroom door when i'm taking a shit, and freaks out meowing and scratching on the door like i'm drowning when i shower

she also has full on separation anxiety from me even though my mom's the one who feeds her and stuff. the first couple weeks i was away for college she got depressed and full on neglected herself, not eating as much and looking mangy because she barely groomed herself. last time she heard my voice over the phone she meowed and searched the house all confused :/
