Why does the cat stop people from leaving?

There are many situations when a cat stops you and refuses to let you go. It may be excited and happy, welcome you when you come home, want you to play with it, or find that stopping you can control your behavior, etc. Parents who have cats at home often find that cats always walk around in front of people, as if they are blocking you and not letting you go. That is just a behavior of cats, and this happens in many situations.
