I'm not crazy I just love cats!

 so Hi there! My name is Dee and I really love cats, like a lot. My friends and family all say I'm a crazy cat lady but that can't be true as I believe I'm perfectly sane. "crazy don't know crazy" is a saying my friends toss around and they may be right. I have a collection of cat items bigger than my husband likes and don't intend on stopping the collecting any time soon. Some of my favourite things are cat ear headbands, the kind all the cute blogger girls wear to do their make up and face routines but, me, I wear them on the daily. I have a growing collection of 13 pairs including a animatronic wiggling pair. For those of you who are like "Oh that's not too bad." Keep in mind I'm a whole ass grown woman. But aside from that I have cat shirts, sweaters, face-masks, socks, pins, stickers, clothing patches, notebooks, dishes, cooking utensils, jewelry, bags, and then my two actual fur babies, Sylvester and Knight! So yeah maybe you can see why people say I'm a crazy cat lady.

 

I know I’m not the only one obsessed with the floofy loafs and their toe beans, so I’ll share some things here that other cat people will hopefully enjoy. And feel free to comment with your cute cat pic or stories. I love to see more cat stuff It’s truly good for my mental health.

 

How did cats become my thing? I honestly always loved them, don’t get me wrong I love almost all animals especially if their being cute AF, but I’ve always just gravitated to cats. As a kid the animal I would associate myself with was always a big cat either a jaguar or cougar. My first pet was a gray tabby named Nala, and she was the best thing ever always sitting in perfect poses and watching you, cuddling with you when you’re sick or sad, and just being like the perfect amount of needing you and being able to do her own thing when I wanted to do mine. So naturally when I moved out on my own the first thing I did was get a cat, and finding a gray tabby made my heart burst! His name is Sylvester, because that was grandmothers favorite name not because of his colours. He was so tiny and perfect it was my first kitten, and I was obsessed!

Yes this is him and yes he's so small he is wearing a lindor bunny ribbon

He was super rambunctious and that did cause some problems. You know when you have a playful energetic cat and they don't know their own attack stats yet so after a little play time you come out looking like you stuck your arms in a paper shredder, well that was me everyday for so so long. Now if you experience this issue it means your cat has too much energy, as in pent up energy. I was working full time when I got him so for 8 hours a day he'd be home alone and he never really woke me up at night so the only time he wasn't chilling by himself doing cat stuff was play time with me, and he'd go ham and get too excited and end up using those lil claws of his. I tried to make play time intense for him  by buying one of those feather on a string thing for him to chase and he would, until he was panting like a dog and I bought loads of other toys to try and keep him busy when I wasn't around. It worked somewhat but I knew this little guy needed a buddy. and a year later I moved in with my boyfriend into a bigger place and guess what your girl did?

Meet Knight, like the dark knight, haha get it. And him meeting his big brother for the first time.

I searched for cats everywhere and spammed my boyfriend with requests for a new kitten and ads for them until he broke and we got our second child, Knight. He's just under a year younger than Sylvester and a very different cat. It seemed strange that they are so different seeing as we got them both as kittens, but Sylvester is an Alpha male he likes to be the one in charge where as Knight is super timid, any sudden movement and he runs for cover. But You don't get a choice when it comes to loving your children it just happens no matter how weird they can be I'd die for these boys.
