This one’s pretty much true-to-life.  One night, my curmudgeonly cat Milo wandered in, plopped down next to me in bed, stretched his arm across my neck to hug (not strangle) me, and it was a habit he repeated many times after that as well.  Many times I’d fall asleep that way and wake up later, and he’d be gone.  Or he’d be sitting in the hallway waiting for me to play a rousing 2am game of fetch with him…

How do you not bond with a cat who hates nearly everyone else in the world but hugs you to sleep at night??

He was my good buddy. 🙂
