Which sex is friendlier and cuddlier?

[catsmom21]

My Red Boy was the sweetest cat in the world. To me. He hid from everyone else. Now he's gone, but I still have three females.

One is on my lap pressing her head up to under my chin repeatedly, for kisses, and purring loudly. (she goes to her Safe Spot if anyone comes to the house)

One is curled up on the bench next to me, waiting her turn on my lap, also purring audibly. Every now and then her purr raises to a crescendo and she reaches a paw out and pats my leg. I reach back and stroke her a time or two. (she stays where she is and ignores anyone coming to the house)

The third girl is stretched out up on a little pad I keep on the desk for her, right behind my lap top. Every few minutes she pokes a paw or nose around the edge of the screen and says "mrrrmph!" to make sure I know she is still there. When she does that I reach over and skritch her tummy for a minute, much to her delight. (She first puffs up at, then enthusiastically greets anyone who comes to the house. She then begins a Show Off Routine with her Turbo, for the benefit of the visitor)

Sweet loving affectionate girls, they love me and one another.

I have one male and two female, and they are all cuddly in their own way. My male cat is a real momma's boy. Then again, the gray tabby female has to be one of the friendliest cats I have ever seen. Everyone who comes over to visit is bound to have that cat on the lap within the first ten minutes.

Even the little princess, who is a bit skittish at times, has her moments doing the Curly Shuffle on the bed or the couch when she's getting her pettins.

Sorry, but when I read the title of this thread, I was not thinking about cats.

I do have to say that I agree that it depends completely on the individual cat. You can have super friendly females, and really stand off males. However on a whole I would have to say I think I've met more males that tend to be more lap cat cuddly on "your terms" anytime than females.

All three of my males, my mom's male have been love bugs. My mom's male mind you is NOT a lap cat. My aunt has a male and he like to snuggle but only when HE wants, and is really not a pick up and hug kind of guy, put he'll pay you a visit now and again (usually when he's hungry!)

I have two girls, neither of which can you usually find sitting with someone. Now and again Lexie will snuggle for a moment or two. She likes to cuddle at night for a little bit but on a whole she like to be left to herself or sit next to you. She is not unfriendly in anyway loves to be pet - just not cuddly or lap cat. My Grace would be my snuggly I think if she wasn't an adoped out of a shelter cat. She tries to sit in my lap, she has some issues. She's a very nervous cat. I can't pick her up at all - not ever. My mom has a female - very similar to my Lexie. Friendly to who she wants to be when she wants to be mostly just to my mom, Don't pick her up.

Both of my current males I think you could tie to a ceiling fan and they wouldn't care My husband carries Simon around upside down and he loves it He gives kisses, comes when called, both boys come to bed every night. They just want to be around you more. All are raised exactly the same.

Definitely male cats.

My girl is not cuddly at all but is VERY loving in a passive aggressive sort of way. If that makes any sense?
