Tuxedo Cat Behaviour & Personality

Why tuxedo cats are so vocal, so nosy, and so certain the room belongs to them. Vino walks the house meowing and gets in the way as a matter of principle. I met him in a winery barn in northern Tasmania, where he would walk between my legs to trip me up, then jump onto whatever I was reaching for. Four years later he does the same thing on my desk. His protest meow is one sustained note, same tone, same volume, for five seconds or more, usually because I have not opened the door yet. These posts cover temperament, vocal habits, guests, night behaviour, and what a tuxedo cat is actually telling you.
