   Most of my friends say I am, but I simply read the body language of cats (or dogs and horses!) and translate from that what they are thinking/doing. I can usually befriend a cat in minutes, even friends' nervous cats as there are postures that you can mimick to get them to come over etc but I don't whisper in their ears and perform miracles!
   
   Growing up I was an only child and spent A LOT of time with my cats studying them!

It is in my nature to analyse everything and ask why something does what it does.
