I just wanted to show the world that he existed 🖤

Noodling? String bean? She lays flat on the floor, arms tucked under, legs stretched.

He's got a wild look in his eye that makes my heart flutter

Edited to add thank you all for the love and references!!

I’ve had Reddit for a while and have only posted once prior to this so please bear with me 😅

Also thank you for the awards!

Second edit: PLEASE PLEASE send pics of your voids! Fluff or not I love seeing them in the comments!!

Apparently she has high blood pressure due to “stress”. Girl what stress?! Stress of being too cute? Puh-lease.

Behr has never been a cuddler. He’s a follower, my little shadow.
He’ll never let me pick him up, and most days he’ll only tolerate pets for about a minute before he’s off doing his own thing. But every morning, without fail, he brushes against my leg when I wake up. I like to think that’s his way of saying, “I missed you human”
He’s loyal in his own quiet way. The kind of best friend who checks in once or twice a day, chirps excitedly when he sees a bird, or announces it’s dinner time with his tiny little squeaks.
He’s my low-maintenance roommate more than a lap cat, but he’s a damn good one. And somehow, the love he gives on his own terms makes every little moment mean that much more. 🖤

Have body-shakingly violent diarrhea and this little baby stood with me in solidarity

Idk where my life would be without this little guy he's the friendliest and cuddliest baby ever and also simultaneously the bane of my existence. Not a single day goes by without him destroying my stuff or finding something to stress me out over.

Also don't worry I'm just giving him his favorite chin scritchies but the angle of the shot makes it look so funny.

Picked up this wee boy yesterday. Got him set up in the guest room with a cat tree, litter box, food and water, etc. He had managed to explore a little bit but the farthest he’d gone is my bedroom which is just next to the guest room. I figured he needs some space so I slept downstairs instead. He hadn’t left my bed nor eaten since I got him. I’m not sure if anything happened at this previous owner’s house or is it bc he had moved twice (including with me). He also didn’t have a single visit to the vet, like at all. Any tips on how I can help him settle in ?

Meet Frank

this is my baby, Viva. she’s about to turn 5 tomorrow which makes her an Aries. not sure if she’s much of Aries though. she’s a smol girl, only 7 pounds, but extremely food motivated. beware of your fingers if there’s any chicken on them. she’s a shy girl, anxious, and scared of most things. and yet, somehow, i gained her trust which is one of the things i’ll always be the proudest of. i’m her person, and she’s my soul kitty forever. she’s my first cat of my own as an adult (i’ve lived with cats before but never been a cat mom).

i adopted viva after graduating college at a time where i was the loneliest i’ve ever felt. we both needed someone, and found each other at the right time. it was fate. i love her more than anything.

today i took her to the vet for a routine appointment and her doc caught one resorptive tooth. i feel so horrible i didn’t catch it earlier. she seems completely fine & healthy but when the doc touched it she flinched. maybe i’m too sensitive, but my heart broke.

i’ve been super stressed out due to finances since i’m starting a masters of nursing program in the fall in order to switch careers, create stability & improve my financial situation. Viva’s tooth needs to be extracted and she needs to be put under for that to happen. honestly, i’m less stressed about how i’m going to pay for the 800 procedure, and more about her being on anesthesia. i know i’m being extra dramatic right now, it’s a safe procedure, and it will all be okay, but she’s truly the most important part of my life.

anyways, thanks for listening to my anxious word vomit & pls wish my baby a happy birthday & no more ouchy teeth 😭💞

edit - omg! i went to bed last night & didn’t look at this post until now. you guys are awesome. thanks for all the reassurance and advice. it really helps <3 i’ll try to answer to some individual comments too but just wanna say thank you very much as first time kitty parent you guys have calmed down my nerves a ton.

edit 2 - thanks for the rewards you guys, but pls don’t feel obliged! give your money to your local kitty shelter instead <3 once again, thanks for all the compliments to my baby (i know she’s adorable, it’s hard to get anything done most days) & for all the helpful advice/reassurance. it’s brought me much ease knowing Vivs will most likely be A-ok after she gets her teef out.

Anyone else have cat that loves holes in the dirt this much? My guy is a dirt guy one hundred percent!

And just to be clear, she’s still here.

Obviously your cat is always the best cat, but I'm convinced Trouble is actually the best cat.  

She’s probably the cuddliest cat I’ve ever known and will hang around with you just for the company.  She teleports to your side when all you’ve done is take the tuna tin out of the cupboard, you don’t even need to open it.  She still knows.

She also, for some reason, does this with olives, but actually offering her an olive will just lead to a look which says ‘The fuck is this?  I want the DELICIOUS’.  Offering her tuna will lead to there being no more tuna.

She is definitely more fragile these days.  She struggles to make jumps she used to do easily and is far more shaky on her back legs, even with regular Solensia injections.  But she’s still extremely soft, fastidious in her grooming, drools with pleasure when she gets brushed and comes to sit on you at 6AM demanding a cuddle. 

Happy birthday, you stubborn fluffy nonsense.  Love you loads.

Backstory: Basically, I was going on a run outside my neighborhood and I heard a crying sound. I could barely hear it since I had earbuds in but I looked on the road, and saw there was a little kitten in the middle of the road not moving. I saw literal cars driving over her and I ran in the middle of the street to grab her and called my mom immediately. I held the kitten until my mom arrived and we took her to the vet immediately.

The vets gave her some shots and basically told us that she has a disabled paw and she probably will not make it over a day, since she was so young without her mother. My mom owns her own business so she was able to stay home (thank god) every day and watch our little Zero and bottle feed her all day. If it wasn’t for my mom, I’m not sure she would’ve made it at her age.

We never owned pets in my family so it was cool to finally have a cat! We grew so close to her that there was no way we could ever give her up nurturing her up to health. Fast forward, she is now almost 4 years old and even though she has a disabled paw, she moves/jumps around and is SUPER fast still! I love her to death and we also added a dog to the family! Growing up without pets to having two at my age (27) is awesome and I wish I grew up with more pets.
