I am so fricking obsessed with my cat. Seriously. It's silly.
I have had my cat for 8 years now though there were some periods when she stayed with my mom while I was trying to fix my life situation. She is obviously adorable as a doorknob. (?) But she is also a very interesting cat. The first thing that made me realize she was special was when she learned how to turn the light on and off, then she did it to my dvd player once. She constantly watches what humans are doing and she is suuuuuuper vocal. I probably made this worse by encouraging the meowing from an early age. Now we meow back and forth all day but it can be annoying when I am ready for bed.
Also my cat is self aware. Seriously. She figured out it was her in her reflection when I got a full length mirror. She doesn't attack her reflection she just sits really close to the mirror staring at herself and if I am behind her and say her name she will look at me in the reflection!! Now this seems pretty cool but coupled with what I am about to tell you about Mouse, it's kinda creepy.
Mouse is so evil toward other cats in a really twisted way.
Mouse enjoy psychologically fucking with other cats. She doesn't just attack em. She will sit and stare at them for sometimes hours, really close to them, while they make unhappy noises and she will let the fear and anticipation build up and then attack them, and then repeat, over and over. And once she has any other cats in the house thoroughly hiding, shaking, and peeing themselves she will lay in front of them with her belly out purring and happy. It's kinda fucked and I didn't know it was a thing until I moved away from my mom's because there she was used to the other cats and more importantly, they watched her grow up from a kitten, and they weren't scared of her so her shit did nothing to them aside from mildly annoying them.
She is so tiny how are all these big cats made her bitches?
Anywho because of this I have been separated from her for the past 6 weeks and have 3 more to go. She's with a foster mommy who saved my life because Mouse was assaulting my bf's cats non-stop and I am staying in his place and watching his cats until I move to MN in 3 weeks.
I miss her so much and that is probably why you guys are about to be bombarded with pictures of my cat.
You're welcome.
I love her so much that sometimes I start thinking about how the average cat life span is supposedly 12-16 years. (All my cats growing up lived way past 12 so I sure hope that's the case with this booger) And it'll make me start panicking and freaking out about how she might die. And then I think about how maybe I should rush her to the vet just in case. Make them do tests so I can hear she's okay.
Also, here is a 2 minute video of her kneading on my spidey. :D
And here is a video of her walking around and being a cat and me talking in a really, really annoying voice. I would avoid it if I were you because of how annoying my voice is. Or maybe mute it and just see the cat.
PS - Even when I am living off of rice she gets the best food money can buy. (and I check the ingredients carefully) I had a cat when I was a kid that died from a UTI caused by eating cheap cat food that had a high ash content.
