It's enough to make a cat not want to leave.

The cat wanted her to leave the camp and go to a nearby village.

"I think this cat wants something to eat," he said.

There wasn't anything on it he thought a cat would want to eat.

"The cat - I want her taken to my office."

The trouble was, the cat didn't want to be liked.

In this case, the cat wanted to be left alone.

The old cat wants me for something and I must run.

Then, slowly, the realization of what the cat wanted became clear.
