Three years ago, I adopted a cat. Or so I thought. Turns out, she adopted me and has been systematically training me ever since. I now wake up at 5 AM because that's when Princess Whiskers demands breakfast. I've rearranged my entire living room around her favorite sunny spot. My grocery budget has a dedicated 'premium cat treats' line item that's honestly embarrassing. She doesn't even like being petted most of the time, but the moment I'm sad or stressed, she materializes on my lap like some furry therapy ninja. Last week during a panic attack, she headbutted my phone out of my hands and forced me to focus on her purring instead. I used to be a dog person who thought cats were aloof. Now I realize they're just emotionally intelligent enough to know exactly when you need them most. My bank account hates her, but my mental health has never been better. #Pets #Cats #CatLife
