don't forget to laugh

so—i think the jig is up. i have a rental cat.

over the course of 1 month i have turned into, unquestionably, a cat lady.
here are the signs:
1. i have cat hair on all my clothes. and no, the lint rollers don’t help
2. i make up names for her: kitty kathy, child bride, françois, warrior, etc.
3. i sing to her
4. i think about what she’s doing when i'm not home
5. i worry about her overall well being. is she happy? is she getting enough exercise?
6. i read pet owners' blogs.

now this last one is the point when i really began to understand the severity of my cat lady-ness. but there are a lot of helpful tips out there! i’ll leave you with this lovely gem:

“don't forget to laugh. it will do wonders for you emotionally and physically. your cat will pick up on your good mood, and everyone will have a good time.”

thanks, crazy cat blogger.
