Can we make this a poll?
Those of you with cats: do they like being picked up or hate it? I've grown up with cats most of my life and very few liked to be picked up. Part of that may be many of them were originally feral, adopted by my parents every time they traveled somewhere exotic. My current cat is a feral from Puerto Rico, about 10 years old and I've had her for about 6. She fucking hates it lmao. The face of disdain when I grab her, pick her up and coddle her like a baby is vicious. She then freezes for about 5 seconds before the melodramatic meowing and intermittent spasms of trying to escape before I finally let her down.
