I believe

     I believe in the love of cats. As a cat lover, I have always had a cat in my house. i In 2019 I got a cat that changed my life. Her name is Menchie, and she and me have a great relationship. I love her as a mother loves their child, and even though I may be alone I know that she can feel when I’m sad. When I have my sad moments she will come running over to me and rub her head against my hand and come snuggle up next to me, as a sign that she cares, or she will jump on top of me and bat her paw on my face to get her attention so that she can take my mind off of things. Other times she can be a little mean, but any cat is like that. I do remember one time specifically that she came running at me just before I fell asleep, and she started to meow at me, so I opened my blanket up, and she crawled under it because I thought she wanted to sleep next to me. The next thing I know she bites the crap out of my arm and darts out of my room. I didn’t even see it coming and I was left awestruck with a hurt arm.    

Other times she can be lazy as any other cat usually is. One time I was sitting on my couch, and she decided to come sit in my lap. After a while I had to get up and do something for my mom and I told her she had to get off of me. Well, I decided that she didn't want to leave, so I put her over my right shoulder and got off the couch and the surprise to me was that she liked it there. So now every time I’ll be doing something she will come up to my feet and meow at me until I pick her up and place her on my shoulder with her head next to mine, so she can see what I’m doing. It's the one thing Ive seen no other of my cats like, I mean yes, I can put them on my shoulder but after two seconds they jump off of me and leave. It's just one of the special things that makes Menchie different from other cats. It also just makes them seem more like a human because like a person they will have one special thing that makes them special and like cats they are the same way. 

Which is why sometimes I would rather spend time with animals than people just because humans have one toxic trait that animals don’t. The ability to judge. Unlike animals, they will show signs they don't like you, for example cats may hiss at you or swipe at you. But for humans that's a different story you could go on for weeks not knowing someone hates you and they could hide that emotion till they want to take something from you. Whether that has or will happen again, I will always have someone by my side. That someone is Menchie, so this is why I believe in the love of cats.

Sincerely, Cat Lover
