Leo sounds very sweet.I've known some very calm, even wise, cats. I have one now, Leo, that was headed out the door. He had never been outside and I did not want to lose him if he panicked and bolted when he got outside. I gently grabbed him by the tail and pulled him back inside. I expected to get badly bit or clawed. He calmly looked at me like, "What's up?" Admittedly we are best buddies, but I have to believe that if he did not respond in anger to being pulled inside by his tail, that he would not respond in anger if a child would grab him by the ear.
