Does anyone look at their cat and think...

...you really are the love of my life!

I look at my ginger boy, who's an absolute halfwit, and think, I love every hair on that wee body, he really is the love of my life.

DH knows the pecking order in this house 🤣

I woke up the other night to find one cat crawling inside my baggy pj shirt, her head was poking out the collar next to mine. We went back to sleep like this which admittedly is bonkers but it filled my heart with joy.

I have always had a cat in my life since I was eight years old.

I can't imagine not sharing my life without a wee cat.

They are so loving and cuddly and you know where you are with them.

Mummysgogetter · 02/02/2024 18:10

Omg yes 🙌 I love her so so much.
I feel a horrible sick sensation in my stomach when I have to go away and leave her. I cannot stop kissing her, she is sooo cute and she follows me everywhere. When I got back from a recent holiday, she slept curled into my arms all night ❤️

I've always been a dog person, in fact I'm allergic to cats. However I am quite certain that my boy is my soul mate, I adore him. The whole family is obsessed with him and we joke that he's the most photographed cat in the country 😁

I love my cats so much and have had thoughts like this, but they haven't had as much adoration since I had DD I'm sorry to say.

Yes, I used to look at my boy and feel such a strong love. I adored him. He died a5 months ago and I still cry when I think of him (like now)

I'm so sorry. It's hard when you lose them isn't it. We still cry about the cats we've lost throughout the years. Cats touch your soul in a way you can't describe.

Sending you love 💕

My DC say my relationship with my cat is 'creepy'. They also know he is the favourite child.

I don't care. He had an awful time before he came to us so I'm committed to making his life absolutely perfect and spoiling him rotten.Grin

A Friend has a Cat who she started out fostering, because he'd been stray for a while and been rescued, and had clearly experienced hunger and abuse. It is vital to Friend that Cat's sense of security is restored, so she treats him like an absolute emperor, with his every need foreseen and catered for. It's very touching to see how attached they are.

FizzyStream · 02/02/2024 18:35

I just been lying my head on mine breathing in her soft fur. She's a grumpy old git and my best friend. She is like me in cat form.

I love DP , DD , DDog and DCats - not necessarily in that order

Duckingella · 02/02/2024 18:40

Mine is an arsehole who likes to steal my neighbours roast dinner.

My cats are the love of my life, they teach you what unconditional love is all about.

Jowak1 · 02/02/2024 18:52

Definitely love ❤️ my Beatrix

BBCK · 02/02/2024 18:52

This guy was the love of my life. He put himself in that ridiculous position every night. He was killed in a road accident and I will never have such a great cat again, although I still have 2 cats they are not a patch on him ☹️

I have drunk the elixir of cats. I literally daydream about how marvellous it must be to be a kitten snuggling up close to my mummy cat 💖

Sluj · 02/02/2024 18:54

I would absolutely marry my cat if I could 🤣

Jowak1 · 02/02/2024 18:56

She's not too happy on the photo though I have just brought her back from the vets - she has gingivitis and needs some teeth out!😞 if it stops her pain it's all good hate to see her in pain x

Imnotthemonalisa · 02/02/2024 19:05

We sometimes have to sit on the floor because both sofas are occupied by sleeping cats. People think we're odd.

TheSnowyOwl · 02/02/2024 19:06

Yes, without a doubt! 😻
