Today Follow, our adopted porch cat, and Aaron are negotiating the terms of the cuddle and hold portions of their contract.
Follow is holding to a "I'll walk up and snuggle and purr while you scratch me" platform...
while Aaron will not concede the "I will hold you in my arms" point.
Through the door I can hear...
"No. Let me explain. I will pick you up. Then I will put you down. Okay?"
"No that is not holding. That is cuddling."
"Follow, I know you don't speak English. Let me show you."
"Do you know the cat down the street that the girl holds? That is how I want to hold you."
And so on.
Follow's response seems to be...
"No. My way."
It's tense. But no hard feelings.
