Now that I know YOU'RE not going to DO ANYTHING when someone breaks in and just messes with YOUR STUFF makes me now concerned about MY STUFF and it's SAFETY HERE

Upvoting because I also have a black cat named Cheese. No other reason.

on the other hand my cat used to sit inside the tool boxes of anyone that came to help fix stuff and purr when she was younger. (she is very friendly)

The duality of cats. You either hide from the tools, or you hide the tools. There is no in-between.

Yes there is, inbetween the tools

One of our cats will growl at the door when he hears someone near the door. He then immediately hides under the stairs if they knock or if he hears the door unlock. Coward.

That being said, his growling behavior is a cute way to inform me someone is at my door way before I hear a knock and alerts me when the mail comes or if a package is being delivered.

Well, yes, the cat knows that a) you're bigger than he is and b) you are not as perceptive as he is. So by letting you know there's a problem and then letting you handle it, the cat is acting purely rationally.
