In the life of my girlfriend and me, there is a very lively and curious family member, and that is our cat. This lovely little guy seems to have an endless curiosity about everything in the world. All sounds, all moving objects, and all places she has never been to can instantly attract her attention like a magnet, making her immersed in the joy of exploration.
Every day when I come home from work and open the door, a battle of wits begins. My first task is to prevent her from rushing out of the house to explore the outside world she has long been longing for. In fact, she especially likes to run to the balcony, as if there are treasures she has been yearning for on the balcony. Every time the door is opened, she always rushes towards the door like an arrow leaving the bow, trying to slip out through the crack of the opened door. I have to be quick – eyed and quick – handed to block her way in time. Otherwise, if I’m not careful, she will disappear outside the door and start her “adventure journey”.
Not only that, any opened cabinet in the house is a mysterious place for her to explore. As soon as the cabinet door is opened, she will eagerly drill in, sniffing and looking around inside, as if she wants to explore every corner of the cabinet. Sometimes, she will even stay in the cabinet for a long time. It is not until we go to look for her that she slowly drills out, looking very satisfied, as if she has just experienced a thrilling adventure.
Her curiosity is also reflected in her attention to any movement in the quilt. As long as there is something shaking in the quilt, for example, my foot moves inadvertently, she will immediately be attracted. She will approach carefully and then gently bite with her small teeth, as if trying to explore what the moving thing tastes like, which makes people angry and funny.
When it comes to playing with toys, she is even more tireless. She can chase her own tail and spin around continuously for more than a minute without stopping. Her appearance is just like that of a tireless puppy, making people laugh. Sometimes, I even wonder if she is a puppy in a cat’s skin. After all, many of her behaviors are similar to those of a puppy. For example, when she can bark, she will never meow. Her loud barking is simply a standard feature of a puppy.
For the water dispenser that can make a sound, she has no resistance at all. The water dispenser has an extremely great temptation for her. She always circles around the water dispenser, patting the water surface with her paws, trying to get the water out to play. Sometimes, she even plays too intently and makes the water all over the floor until she finishes playing with all the water in the water dispenser. And this behavior accidentally inspired her new skill – scooping water to drink with her hand. I saw her stretch out her little paw, put it into the water, and then send the water – stained paw to her mouth, licking it with relish. She looks very cute.
However, although she is so naughty and curious, she is very obedient in other aspects. She will take the initiative to eat by herself. Every time it’s mealtime, she will run to her food bowl and wait quietly for the food. In terms of using the toilet, she is also very self – conscious. She will obediently defecate in the litter box and never cause us any trouble. Moreover, she also knows very well how to express her love. She will come over from time to time to kiss us, lick our hands with her tongue, or gently scratch us with her paws, making us feel her deep dependence and love for us.
This is our curious and energetic cat. Although she is naughty and often makes us headache, the joy and warmth she brings far exceed those small troubles. She is the pistachio in the life of my girlfriend and me, a family member we cherish and think about day and night. We also look forward to creating more interesting and beautiful memories with her in the days to come.
