My cat loves people, especially people that are new, and a few months ago there were a bunch of construction workers in the house, the amount of surprised happiness I heard because my cat wanted to cuddle with the new humans, was really cute

My cats too.

I have a "I love you stranger" cat, and a "oh God this stranger will eat me" cat.

I had an electrician come in and my idiot cat jumped into his little duffle bag of tools and almost got taken to someone else's home. Just wanted to be friendly

My cat is adorable, but if she doesn't know you she WILL cut a bish. We warn everyone who comes in, but the number of times we've had to intervene when a landlord's agent, repairperson, etc was convinced they'd be the first stranger she liked... Look, but do NOT touch.

Yep, like cats have feelings, respect them. My sister warned me her cat was really shy when I first came over. So I just didn't expect to see her much. But to my surprise and delight she took right to me, cuddle rolling in my lap and asleep within 30 minutes of walking through the door. She then spent most of the night sleeping on me. My sister was not amused 😅. Apparently in the months she'd had her cat she'd never done that with my sister.
