Actually most of them like me.

But I don't want to live in one.

You just haven't met a cat you liked.

We just got a year-old Maine Coon cat. Wife loves the little (little? HUGE!)
darling. Laziest damn cat I've ever even heard about.

Even has the weirdest non-cat attitude: completely laid-back, nonplussed,
and indifferent to his environment. Curious, he's not. He scampers away from
the laser pointer and hides behind the curtain 'til it's safe to come out.

Right now, at one year, he weighs 14 pounds and his breed doesn't reach
their full growth until they're two or three.

Anyway, he's no bother, stays out of the way, and doesn't even wake up when
you pet him.

Perhaps that's the breed for you?
