It was a very steep learning curve for me when I was adopted by cats.
I'd had dogs all my life and couldn't understand why the cats refused
to comply with any rules I had like "no going upstairs", "no
stealing food", etc. Rule 1 was modified to "no sleeping on the beds"
but was eventually abandoned. Rule 2 has been enforced by not
leaving anything on the worktops and by using the microwave as
storage if I leave the room for a millisecond.

Yup, I had a similar experience. I think I was in my thirties when I
first got to know a cat. It was an eye-opener. I haven't been without
at least one cat since.

I'd always had dogs and was planning on having one when we got married but
only when I wasn't working full time because it just isn't fair to the dog
otherwise. As I'm still working full time that plan went out of the
window. Then Sweep (RB) decided to move in with us. As you say, what a
leaning curve. She had us well trained in a month.

It's been amusing watching as my best friend from my childhood (and also
has only had dogs) adjust to living with a cat. she too was well trained
within a few weeks but still she's amazed at how different are cats and
dogs.

Not only that, although dogs all have their own personality, I think there
can be greater differences among cats than there are among dogs. I hope
that conveyed what I want to say. ;-)
