they are not timid they are natural borne hunters in the wild. that's why they prowl around your house instead of being in your lap and being all cuddly like dogs. Dogs are different because they live in packs and to them humans who feed him or her is their own pack except we are Superior to them.
Most cats who are afraid of humans, are afraid because they were not exposed to them while they were very young. Newborn kittens should be exposed to their humans as soon as the mother will allow. From their first days talking to the mother while gently touching the new kittens will make the kittens more sociable and less fearful when they start moving around away from their mother.
Some believe it's instinctive and that they pay extra attention to their environment at all times due to predators in the wild plus their added hearing ability. they were even used in ancient times to predict earthquakes.
Not all cats are, but they may be skiddish because someone may have been mean/abusive to them. Also, cats that are strays are not all the time use to humans, so when someone tries to get a cat to come to them they need to be patient because a cat is not as trustworthy to a stranger. However, a lot of cats can sense if someone is a kindhearted person within a few minutes and will trust more and more each time they are around humans.
umm... its either because of its background, breed, how you treat it, or you've just come across a bad cat. so dont say that about all cats. meanie butt

In my experience cats are very temperamental creatures. With that being said, I believe they are only temperamental due to their environment or circumstances affecting them. Example: the arrival of a new family member or pet could throw your cat into uncharacteristic behavior or the feeling that your cat hates you. Evaluate the situation and see if something has changed that could make your cat fearful or unsure of his new environment.
it depends what breeder you get them from houses can get very temperamental so be careful which you chose
