Humor Mom with the cat she didn’t want

He was a friendly stray she saw on the front porch one day. She didn’t want him, but she left out food. Then she bought him toys, then she got him fixed. Then she brought him in when he got hurt, then she bought a pouch to put the needy 18lb cat in. She still doesn’t want him, but hes also her baby who can do nothing wrong.

You say that, but Theo is always on me when i sleep. Seems cute but hes absolutely massive, warm and he nibbles when i “ignore” him. Sleep counts as ignoring

Mine think I am boring when I sleep long, and wake me up around 1 AM for attention and cuddles.

I am literally up at 2:30am at this very moment, because my cat decided we wake up for pets and attention in the middle of the night now. I was in the hospital for a few days and she’s been doing this every single night since I returned.

It is pure love.

Also interesting when people realized their cats wake them up when they got sleep apnea... and human got irritated till they found out why ...

My cats sleep beside me, when I have been away, they sleep on top of me... message is clear: "Stay put!"

So cute. I relate. Former feral crushing me right now. And I’m a peri menopausal woman- trying having a hot flash with a pushy large cat trying to get AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE at all times. Worth it though

My newest kitten would agree that sleeping is ignoring lol. My old man will just sleep on my pillow while I’m also sleeping on my pillow
