Tolerate us?
Nah. I know my boys love me. They have to be where I am and miss me when I'm gone and meow, urging me to get my butt in the door when I get home. And they're always there to greet me.
I'm glad they don't pee all over me like this one dog I had did. She'd get so excited, she couldn't help herself peeing all over everything. Now I could probably train her not to do that. As it is, my cats are training me, their human. They probably think I'm slow.
