A: "I don't have a cat" is grammatically correct and is the most natural sounding.

A: why are you holding a cat - なぜ猫を持っていますか。（とくに驚いてないし、不思議に思ってない)
Why, exactly, are you holding a cat? なら「一体なんで猫を持ってるわけ？」って感じ。"exactly" を加えるともっと「意外」とか「おかしい」とか「怒り」の気持ちも入ってる。ようするに、強調を表してる。

A: Hi, I'm home!
B: And would you care to explain why exactly you're two hours late!?

A: They do not let him "have" a cat is correct. "Has" in that sentence is wrong.

"He HAS a cat"

"He can't HAVE a cat"

"He is not allowed to HAVE a cat"

"Jon HAD a cat" (past tense)

"He was not allowed to HAVE a cat" (past tense)

It seems HAVE is the potential form. And has is the present tense and had is the past tense.

A: The cat nestled itself on my lap out of its own volition.

A: purrs
purred
purring

A: To sound more natural you would say: Living together, keeping a cat... that sounds like a pretty convenient future.

A: "I saw the cat and the dog yesterday." is fine, but "I saw the cat and dog yesterday." is more natural to me.

Likewise,
"It's more natural and common." and "It's more natural and more common." are both fine. In this case, "It's more natural and common." is more natural and common, while "It's more natural and more common." may sound more emphatic since both adjectives are separately being emphasized.

A: 'Must be enjoying *it* there' is in the present progressive. You have not gotten to the cat cafe yet, so the tense is wrong. If you are already there, you could say 'I must enjoy it there'. As you are speaking about yourself, though, this だろう form wouldn't usually be appropriate. I would recommend that you say:

'I really like cats, so I really enjoy it there.' or
'I really like cats, so I really enjoy that cafe.'
