She's been in my life since I was around 8, and my parent caught her one night accidentally (trying to catch a wild tom hanging around out house, annoying our female who was fixed) and I refused to let them give her to SPCA can't really remember it very well but I remember me crying and begging them to keep her 😅. Eventually they gave in, and well now 10 years later I have a short fluffball who will sit on my bed and wait for me to get home at the end of the day.

On my bad days, she'll often come up to me and smudge up against my face and it really makes me feel like I'm needed. I've struggles with mental ilnesses since I was roughtly 12 and Smudge has always been there, especially in times where I feel no use in myself she'll always be there to remind me that if no people need me at least she does. So yeah, thats my cat-rant. I'd also love to hear others and their cat-rants & stories. Because sometimes you get the perfect cat who is seriously irreplacable.
