Chapter 1- The
conversion of a non believer to a cat worshipper
Sometimes I do wonder, you
know whether things would have being different under different circumstances.
Whether I would have taken another path in life that it wouldn't involve
cats... so much.
But in this reality I'm
one of those persons who loves cats, I'm a self-confessed and obsessed catwoman
catpurrson and I can't really imagine
ever living a life where there are no cats in my home to care for. I also know
that some might think that I'm perhaps 'a bit obsessed',
you know, loving and caring for my cats more than I really care about other
people...
You
know, all of you cat crazies out there what I'm talking about if you're one of
the many cat people, those people who always put his/her cats first, so you can accommodate all their needs,
whether it is feeding demands or trying to minimize all stress levels in your home (never play
any loud music and generally any loud sounds that could upset them, and of
course allowing no visitors under any circumstances in your home or considering
going on holidays or even be away for more than a day with your partner as at
least one of you has to be at home at
all times to keep an eye on them, especially
when you are looking after very demanding kitties or cats that are seem
to be getting a bit old and therefore more needy...more than usual that is,
phew!).
Of course I also believe
strongly that cats are coming first, in any cat's worshipper home that is, like
my own at least and as long as my cats are happy I'm happy too and therefore
warnings such as: 'don't touch a hair of my cats' fur or you'll die...' to
other people, that is, should not be taken lightly, like I'm just joking...because
I'm not, seriously now!
People
who have an do care for cats probably
get me, others especially those who don't like cats they have made already
their judgement about me, they think that I'm a crazy cat lady that needs help…well I don't, I’m quite
happy the way I am, really.
But I'm not crazy,not really, I just love and admire cats, I'm
a normal catpurrson who loves cats and who seems to have some special
connection with them, sharing some unique relationship with them, which I don't
think I would ever have with any other species, and in
particular with any
other human being, although I do love all animals and respect all life on this
planet (including human life...although at times I do have my own doubts,
especially when it comes to some human thinking and behaviours!).
But of course all of us,
humans, have our own reasons for living
with and caring for our cats. Although they do seem to some extent to fulfil our anthropomorphic way of thinking
as they do, at some level at least appear to have similar human physical
characteristics and personality traits from the way they look, feel when
they're touched and behave or even in some cases 'talk' to us with their many
different meows and squeaks or even purrs at the same time they also seem to
play an important and different for each of us, role. They can be our
companions, close and trusted friends, the children who we wish we had or even we
let them be in some cases the part of ourselves who we wish we were and allowed
to be, free to do what he/she wants when outside, as there are for us, humans, so
many rules and norms which they seem to prevent us to be the individuals who
somewhere in the unconscious part of our brain we really want to be...wild and
free, confused yet? Yes our cats in some respect can be our mini us, a still
wild and free us...out there!
