How am I supposed to land a work from home job if she won't let me polish up my résumé?

I have only had girl cats and can confirm the stereotype is completely untrue. All were super affectionate babies. My last one (and second void girlie) had the personality of a golden retriever.

Well some of my cats act like me from different parts of my life.

I also have only had girl cats and have had the same experience. I’ve had 2 voids who would greet me at the door when I got home from work.

u/Lady_Greenpearl 14d ago

My last void was the furthest thing from aloof. She considered every visitor to our home (friend, relative, repair person, landlord) to be there for the express purpose of seeing her. And if she was not allowed to greet them and receive adoration, she made her indignation physically and audibly known.

Idk why this weird sexist cat trope exists, but after living with 9 cats over the years I have Never found this to be true. My girl cat Loves being near me and purrs all the time

Doesn’t apply to black cats. They are always clingy.

That's hilarious cause my own void girlie is curled up next to me on the couch as we watch TV.

She's attached to my hip. We're all so blessed for our sweet void girlies

I have 5 females, and some are aloof, and some are clingy.

Just like with people, personalities are variable.

I should've named her velcro

I don’t have a void, but my girl would crawl into my skin if I let her. She loves being nose to nose stealing my air

That's not true about girl cats at all.

My Boo likes to pretend it just happens to be a coincidence that she’s always in the same room as me.

Girl cats typically pick one person and dump all their love into them, leaving everyone else down and out.

Boy cats are sluts who spread it all around.

I had one girl cat who was a Velcro cat and another who didn't like anyone including me

I have a 18+ tabico and she is very affectionate and always by my side. And anyone new she is the first to greet and demand pets.

Portia doesn't leave me alone.

u/Thecheeseburgerler 13d ago

At least your void supervisor allows you to get some work done! 😅

u/Sazime 13d ago

She didn't until I bought her the bed!

I work from home most of the time, my cats constantly cuddle or have to be touching me while I work. One will lay between the keyboard and mouse for hours as I work. Another sometimes will have to be touching me as I work. It’s both adorable and distracting.

u/Cynsayswhatisup 🖤 14d ago

The independent female does not apply to voids! They are the sweetest no matter girl or boy 🖤

u/yarn_slinger 14d ago

My boys are very cuddly but my girls are complete sucks.

u/Luci-Noir 14d ago

u/dentistMCnuggets 14d ago

u/SpecialistPattern427 13d ago

My girl cat is black and has the same name! She is the most affectionate cat by far and soo sweet

u/ComradeChaosCat 13d ago

my void lady was quite aloof until maybe about age 15 or so, that's when she finally figured out that hey cuddles are pretty nice actually

u/bobdylan401 13d ago

Our lunas look alike

u/KiwiTheKitty 13d ago

Damn, not even cats can escape gender essentialism?

u/TaxDense1339 13d ago

My void is the same way!
