Your cat wants to love you, but there is something in the way. The problem is most likely you. You are not loving your kitty in the way it wants to be loved. Give your kitty it's space. At the same time, give it lots of treats, consistent mealtimes, rigorous playtimes and conversation. Tell your kitty you love it. Look at your kitty and say, "I love you, cat." Keep doing this. Eventually, your cat will respond.

Your cat loves you, but not as much as it loves someone else. If it needs someone to scoop its box, fill the dish, or scratch that itchy spot on its back, you'll do. Otherwise, meh. How can you win your cat over? You could try keeping a bag of cat treats in your pocket.

Of course your cat loves you, but you doubt that love, don't you? Your cat doesn't show love the way some cats do, but it has lots of love for you. Have you ever noticed that your cat always seems to be watching and ignoring you at the same time? That's cat love right there. Soak it up.

Your cat is madly in love with you.

Your cat is ridiculously, head over heels in love with you. As far as it's concerned, you are the reason the sun rises, the moon shines, and that tuna tastes so darn good. If your cat had its way, it would sit on you and purr all day and all night. All that love can be a bit much, but it's not going anywhere.
