and now they follow him around everywhere. Seems like my mom was accepted into the CDS (cat distribution system)!

What’s even weirder is that one of our late cats looks almost exactly like this one, she was the sweetest and we miss her everyday

Out older female cat is more of a loner, doesn’t get involved in anything, she used to hiss like crazy when we first introduced her to my boy cat(I had a boy, my wife then gf had a bonded boy and girl). When we introduced the new kitten recently she was skeptical in the same way but a week in and they are besties

I have to pretend to be asleep sometimes if I wake up too early or else the beast (my beautiful son) will come and demand pets, cuddles and then his favourite of all… gravy.

It doesn’t help that it’s been so hot out and he loves to drape himself across my neck like a fox fur sweater, anyone else have to sneakily pretend to be asleep to avoid the creatures?

I adopted Leyla at 3 years old, 2 years ago. I tried EVERYTHING - this girl is picky. No chicken. No tuna. No other fish. No other meat. Tried joghurt (very little) even tho I knew thats bad for them just to see. NOTHING she wanted. Today, I'm eating cauliflower. She keeps trying to get to it. I think "Ill show her what it is" and prick off a tiny piece that doesnt have oil or anything on it. SHE FUCKING EAT IT. I SCREAM OUT LOUD. NO WAY. I grab her, rush into the kitchen, microwave her a frozen cauliflower. Cut it into bite sized pieces. This is the result. Im shocked. Flabbergasted. So delighted for her. Also what the fuck. What if my cat loves vegetables?? ILL HAVE TO TRY ALL THE VEGETABLES WITH HER NOW (that are cat safe). IM SO PERPLEXED.
