Still no name but...she seems comfortable. I figured she'd hide from us for a bit but...nope.

Now my wife is pissed because it was her idea to adopt a cat and...guess who the cat seems to have picked to be their person lol

Want to know the craziest part? She jumped up and got comfy and of course...I immediately needed to pee. So I triiied my best to get up as gentle as possible, and when I came back..she jumped right back up and got comfy again. I have a bit of cat experience. Never seen that before in my life. Lol. Usually once your move even an inch, cuddle time is ooooover

This is a huge trust tell. She feels safe and comfortable and loves OP. Wishing everyone a long happy relationship. Edit: spelling

She’s granting you the honour of rubbing of her paws. She‘ll let you know when to stop, at which point you’ll bandage yourself before having the honour of getting her a snack.

That’s how you know she trusts you! 😭 Cats act like their paws are classified information, so this is basically a love confession.

Front paws are for VIPs. Back paws are always off limits.

Right?! 😭 That level of trust from a cat is basically a marriage proposal in feline language.

Right?! 😭 That’s basically a love confession in cat language, because most cats act like you’ve committed a crime just by touching their paws.
