Cats enjoy the company of their owners. As social animals, they like being with humans and need their owners' company. This is because cats enjoy interacting with humans, and when they feel lonely or bored, they may become anxious and uneasy.

Cats actually crave their owners' companionship. Sometimes they seem aloof, which doesn't necessarily mean they dislike their owners; it could just mean they're angry with them. Cats often feel lonely, and if their owners can spend time with them, they will be very happy and will often cling to them.
Cats miss their owners terribly. If they don't see their owners for a day, they feel very lonely, and they will be overjoyed to see their owners again. However, if owners don't spend time with their cats even when they come home, they will find the cats hiding somewhere, not wanting their owners to see them, because this means they are already very sad.
