So, I can’t say that I’m “aggressive” towards my cat. However, she’s so freaking cute that I have this uncontrollable urge to always be around her or touch her. I know she tolerates it sometimes, and there are a lot of times where she’ll hiss at me and then I leave her alone. Fine. But I’m literally fighting a battle within me to, like, not mess with her all of the time. She’s just so daggone cute.

​I want to respect her, I try my best to respect her. What else can I do to not feel this way? Again, I do give her space (most times) when she asks for it. If I’m messing with her and she walks away, I let her do her thing. But as soon as I get anywhere near her, I have to love on her. I’ve had her since she was three weeks old and her fifth birthday was last week, yet I still see her as this itty bitty titty 😭. Shes giggly and has the softest fat #Twin.

The reason I’m asking is because I recently had a friend tell me that I was cruel and should rehome her. I don’t want her to suffer…she is my first cat so I’m pretty sure I’d be wrong here. But I can’t see myself giving her up, shes family. I’m here asking how to work on myself or at least where to begin.

I know this is probably stupid so thank you for taking the time to read this and help me out 🥲.
