I Am Really Trying To Become A Cat Person
But I think my cat is on drugs…

“It is your spirt animal lol. Crackhead energy and clingy? Definitely you.” — Text message from my sweet husband…
My husband would mention us getting a cat, but mostly, it was just to get a reaction out of me. “Heck no, we aren’t getting cat. I gave up my tiny dog for you, and so, you can live without a cat,” I would always tell him.
My best friend and I would always send each other cat videos on tiktok. She was convinced I was starting to like cats. I would quickly respond, “I think they are funny, and on very rare occasions, I think they are cute. I can’t imagine ever owning a cat though.”
Then, one day, I was driving to my parents house, and saw a tiny black thing run across the street. No one seemed like they were going to help it. I started to drive away. I felt like the worst person ever, and turned around. I found a place to park, and went running for it.
