Mine are the same way, sort of. Buddy the Siamese doesn't care much about food but wants attention. He's Mr. Slenderello. OJ loves food in all forms and only wants attention if he thinks it might result in getting him some food. When he's hungry, though, he'll jump in my lap, darn near pinning me down, and will just purr and lap up the attention until I get up and put some food in his dish.
