I have a foster cat, and I hate it.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I love cats very, very much. My cat is named Ozma and I’ve had her for about 15 years. She’s lived with my wife and I in every home we’ve ever lived in since we’ve been on our own. To be brutally honest I think I love her more than my parents or siblings.

When she dies, it’s going to be deeply devastating to me. I’ve had cats my whole life but I doubt I’ll ever get another after her. She’s irreplaceable.

I feel similar, but I will always get new cats as we spoil them, and more cats deserve to live in our cat resort (aka my house)

One dog, the oldest, could care less about her. The youngest wants her to play! But he’s still 3-4 times her size. The biggest doesn’t seem to have any feeling one way or the other.

Neither of the other 2 cats like her but one of them will at least let us bring her around her so they can sniff each other out. The other cat hisses and moves on.

Check this out. After 12 years, Penny has decided to be a mouser

Apparently she doesn’t like the head or tail, tho.
