It's typical of humans to say things like 'he's a very friendly cat', or, 'he takes so much interest in what I'm doing.' Both of these are true but they omit the extra reality that he hopes that he will get some kind of food out of it. In this case he is on the chair in the kitchen watching me do the dishes (he hasn't quite figured out the difference between person-at-stove and person-at-sink). Won't be long though as 'he's a very smart cat' too.
