A girl and a cat.

Yes that's the cat in the story

Ok yeah so this is going to be about the love of my life. No it's not a man or a woman. It's about my cat. My cat is 13 years old I've had her since I can remember. She's been there for me through so much. She's seen me cry, she's seen me laugh. She's my bestfriend and my greatest love. I treat her like my baby and she acts like one. Her personality is crazy she's exactly like a person. She sits up like a little person on the couch. She stares at you like every girl wants their boyfriend to stare at them. She always makes me laugh with the weird faces or things she's doing. I show her off like every girl wants to be shown off. This cat isn't just a cat to me, she's my entire world. I am laying in bed right now and a couple minutes ago she was pushing my bedroom door open to come in. I opened the door for her climbed back in bed, next thing you know she's standing by my bedside looking up at me. Of course I got out of bed picked her chubby butt up and put her in bed with me. Now we are laying in bed together, looks like I might have a sleeping partner tonight. She purrs so loud you can hear it from probably two rooms over. Unfortunately I have class in the morning and don't want to really sleep with her although I love her. I'm definitely not gonna let her get too comfy only for the fact that I'm going to have to kick her out soon. I look at her and get upset at the thought of her getting older and what I'm ever going to do without her. I wish she was still younger. I also told her to reincarnate herself as another kitten so I could find her again. She just sits there and looks at me probably thinking I'm a nut. She's about the last thing left from my childhood and I think that's why it hurts the most. Also I've thought about when she passes hopefully not anytime soon but far in the future. I've thought about maybe getting her stuffed but everyone seems weirded out by that so maybe I'll just have her cremated and put it into a necklace or something like that. Maybe three necklaces because I frequently loose important jewelry. Anyway I'm sure everyone can relate to this in the sense that the majority of us have had childhood pets that have followed us into adulthood. I'm also sure many people can relate to the loss of a beloved pet and how it hurts. I've done so much googling on how long cats live and it's crazy because I'm really trying to estimate and prepare myself for the time. I'm going to have to get another cat right after she passes. Hopefully she reincarnated herself like I told her. Most likely I will get a kitten so I have something to continue to grow with also the kitten won't be that old when I decide to have kids so the kitten can even grow with my kids. I like dogs but they are just so much work and I feel like cats just get into your feelings more. Hopefully I still have a good five years left. If any of you recently lost a pet I'm sorry for your loose and I hope you can heal from this. Time to kick my love off and get to sleep.
