I believe, i am officially " owned" by LilGlad

Big changes in her behavior, the last couple weeks.
She used to do her day naps, on/or under the couch, now, it's on the arm or back of my chair, always.
And now, she will lick my hand, jump off the chair, flop on her back, on the floor in front of me, all paws inthe air.
Of course, I grab the brushes, thin her long hair out and scratch her belly. Never had a kitty, how do I say this, this submissive, while this dominant, she is controlling me.
So happy, I adopted, her.

Many humans are not as successful as yours, and they live unfulfilled, unhappy lives, always trying to find ways to dominate the kitty.

At knowing who is deserving of their trust. And it is earned not given blindly. Good job at earning hers.

She has captured your heart, and taken you hostage, all at once. Cats are amazing. The cats keep me company, and they are not too demanding, sometimes I wonder who's in charge. They are very spoiled and they keep me on my toes.

Am I still on DU?
Did you post, "cats are, not too demanding?"
I may have to report you to Earl, for disinformation. Sarcasm intended.


I ran to Walmart yesterday to stock up on supplies,
LilGlad saw new bag of food, and refused to eat, what was in her bowl. I'm at hour 17 of saying,


It's the same food!

Indeed, they can be very high maintenance at times. My cats will stop eating what's left in their bowl if they think there is not enough to bother with. They want the bowl to be full. Civet weighs 20 lbs, his sister Maybelline is 22 pounds. They are not starving. It is just how they are.

It's apparent she loves and trusts you very much.This is something you should treasure, because it's rare that it happens. Good for you!
