01 i 00 I wish you liked cats 02 i 00 is the most direct way of saying it. 02 br
00 You can say 01 i 00 I wish you had a soft spot in your heart for cats 02 i 00 , but that's a little strange I think. 02 br

0 Oh yeah ,I made a typing mistake here,its not cut cates its"cute cats".Why it sounds strange to you when using soft spot?Is it not very common or what?by the way thanks alot for being so helpful. 05 0 010id 1

0 A soft spot means an extreme liking/love for something - very sentimental feelings about something. 02 br

00 I guess it doesn't sound natural here as it is going from one extreme to another. If someone didn't like cats you wouldn't wish that they absolutely adored cats, you'd just wish that they liked them. 0-

0 Then what is the difference b/w soft corner and soft spot?,and can we use them interchangebly?If not then please explain it so that I can get rid of this confusion.Thank you so much for giving me your precious time, so kind of you everyone. 05 0 010id 10

0 Soft corner is not correct. The idiom is soft spot. If you say soft corner no-one will know what you mean. Idioms tend to have very set wording and you can't play around with it. 0-
