Do you try to play with your cats? If you don't try to need any of their needs other than food, water, and litter, why would they care about you beyond that? I have 3 cats and a rescue kitten I'm fostering, and all 4 of them seek me and my wife out for attention every single day. Play with your cats and respect their boundaries, and they will come to you for their emotional needs as well.
I have two cats and one of them is motivated exclusively by food and the opportunity to rip cardboard boxes apart and spread to the contents over the floor. He's not interested in anything else.
The other one is perfectly friendly.
Sometimes you just have to have the right kind of cat.
If you have to spend time playing with it, then what's the advantage of having a cat over a dog?
