Catsyncrasies are the endearing and annoying personality quirks that endear us to our cats while sometimes annoying us.

Tucker is a sweetheart but loves to fight other cats.

Quinn enjoys cuddling but becomes extremely needy before transforming into Quinn the Zen master, sitting motionless outside, apparently meditating with his eyes open, but not looking happy about it.

Boo will happily sleep with you and purr as you pet him before suddenly announcing, “Enough,” delivering his decision with a sudden hiss and a swipe.

Meep comes running when I run water in the kitchen, jumping up onto the counter and getting in the way, vexing me when I’m trying to clean the kitchen.

Annoying, endearing, exasperating, intriguing, they’re catsyncrasies.
