Actually, Simon, in my mind (for I believe such perceptions are usually relative to the owner's thoughts and feelings regarding the pet), is actually not the Morris -- and definitely not the somewhat cynical Garfield -- type of character. On the contrary, in fact, he's rather docile, loves to be enthusiastically talked to (but not cooing as one might behave towards a human baby) and quite receptive to petting-attention (though he seems to experience panic attacks when held, perhaps due to early-life abuse).
