Lately I’ve been thinking about my relationship with Tuxedo.
It’s very close, and recently I took the time to study and reflect on her
behavior.
She follows me everywhere, from room to room. Even into the
bathroom. She waits for me outside the door, like a toddler. When I take a
shower, she will lie on the bathmat on the floor and wait until I come out.
Sometimes she’ll even peep at me behind the shower curtain. She’s not afraid of
water.
I don’t know how she knows when I am on the move. We could
be at different sides of the house. If I go into another room, she will soon
come out of another room to lie down on the floor. Sometimes I try to sneak
into a room when I know she’s sleeping in another part of the house. She can
still catch me, and there she’ll be in the room.
Tuxedo gets excited easily. She purrs very softly when I pet
her. I can barely hear her unless I touch her. The faster she wags her tail,
the happier she is. But be careful. She will try to bite and scratch you if she
gets too excited. Freeze your hand, don’t move, and keep telling her to “Stop!”
She will let you go.
My cat also talks a lot. If you really listen to her, you
will be able to know what she’s saying by the sound of her meows. She’s a
complainer.
She likes to smell what you are drinking before you drink it.
If you don’t allow her to take a quick sniff, she will paw you to bring the
drink closer to her. She won’t try to lick the drink. She just wants to know
what it smells like.
When she wants affection, she will come to me and bow her
head. I know this means she wants to take a nap next to me. She snuggles close
into a ball close to me, burying her head on me. I love her to death.
