The cats I've had have all been at least as affectionate as the dogs I've had, in some cases more so. The thing with cats is they don't give their affection unconditionally like most dogs do ... it has to be earned. Unless you're a cat person, cats will react to you cooly and they'll give you the impression they're aloof and uncaring. If you know how to relate to a cat though, they can be incredibly affectionate and caring, just like a dog. The most incredible cat I've ever owned was a blue point siamese, which is a breed that cat haters tend to hate more than most. This guy was incredible though ... one of the best friends I've ever had.
