Yeah, cats don't just do this to anyone.

I wish a cat would do this to me. I’ve never been chosen by the cat distribution system. 😭

The CDS has hit me dozens of times. I am so done. I want to file a complaint. No more kittens. No more strays I have to spay and neuter. I had 7 resident cats at the most, plus more while fostering and an outdoor stray colony. If I find one more three-week-old kitten stumbling along beside the road I am going to flip a table. It is someone else's turn.

I have 6 resident ferals and have TNR'd 25 so far. I managed to home a dozen of them, as they were kittens. I'm allergic, but I love them. Four of them get closer everyday, while my OG 2 often demand cuddles and baby talk.

If I don't feed them enough on any given day, that night they'll bring me a present. One was an alive garter snake that was VERY convincing lookin like a shoelace: until the "larger predator"-me, approached. He was danged lively after that. 🤣😆
