I was in an accident in Jan that left me confined to the couch for weeks, the cats were thrilled to have snuggles available 24/7. They were determined to make me feel better.
Absolutely true but cats are lower maintenance for people who prefer to be less involved with them. And there is another reason cats don’t get very involved with our daily activities: they are nocturnal by nature preferring to sleep during daylight hours so they can hunt at night when their vision gives them a great advantage over prey.
Our cats respond to the sound of the motor that tilts my wife’s wheelchair back the way some cats respond to the sound of the can opener. Once she’s settled in a reclined position, they will jump up into her lap for a nap and/or some petting.

Pretty true, but one of my cats likes to get in the middle of yoga time.

I would be a cat person currently, if I wasn’t allergic. I will have to wait until I retire to become a dog person again.
As it is active cat people have been finding ways to take their cats on adventures with them:

Have to admit, in a few of the pictures the cats do have the, “I would have been fine staying at home napping in a sunny spot” look.
