Their personalities vary, and they can be quite independent solitary animals, more or less. I'm usually pretty good at reading my cat, but this last time he just happened to get me when I was at a bit of a disadvantage.
I never try to assert any "master" type role. As a matter of fact I often refer to the large unneutered male as the alpha male(including myself) or "The Boss", and in reality I'm only half joking about that.
