Push/Pull (a.k.a. The Yo-Yo Effect)...The four's most painful dilemma!

Have any of y'all ever owned a cat? If you have, you're probably aware of
how us fours are perceived by other types. By nature, we wish to be left
alone so we can indulge in figuring ourselves out. However, there's always that "special" person whom we love and whom we occasionally put through hell.

How do we accomplish this? By asking for "space" when they get near (which we usually do in an explosive, hurtful manner), and grovelling when they leave our side.

Unless the object of our affections has overwhelming stamina, patience and limitless resolve to make a relationship work, it's not easy loving a four...
