Well, my cat is about a year old...
cats usually mellow with age...although as everyone knows...each cat has
their own
distinct personality

I have fifteen cats - of the ones that want the most petting, one flops
down on the table in front of the keyboard and demands that I comb out his
long hair, even his belly - when he's had enough, he starts getting
nervous (after a pretty much complete combing and much petting), then just
jumps down; another starts off the same way, but if I'm not very careful
where I put my hands, after about four strokes of his belly, he draws
blood - no warning, just a light chomp (a serious bite from that cat
requires immediate medical attention - he's very big and has very big,
sharp teeth); a couple of others grab my hand if I touch their bellies,
othewise they seem not ever to get too much petting; another demands short
petting sessions at frequent intervals; and so forth for the others.

My good old departed buddy "White Cat" would flop on the floor and cry until
I petted and brushed him.
He could never get enough!

That's because he's a boy cat.
Girl cats are more "sensitive".
