When I think back to the experience of bringing back that silver – shaded cat, my heart is full of emotions. It was an unforgettable moment. In the entire cattery, among so many cats, only it took the initiative to get close to me and stick to me. As if in a mysterious way, it chose me and was going to start a special life journey with me.
At first, I was overjoyed, thinking that with its good temper, I could have a peaceful sleep. After all, I had a Chinese rural cat before. That rural cat was very clingy and cute, but it had no sense of time at all. Whether I was resting or not, it would suddenly jump onto the bed and wake me up from my sleep. During those days, I even developed a “divine skill” – in a half – asleep state, I could kick the rural cat off the bed with one foot. However, unfortunately, that rural cat later escaped from the house and wandered away, never to return. After much deliberation, I decided to buy a silver – shaded cat. I still remember when I picked it up, it was as docile as warm and soft jade, making no sound at all. At that moment, I was full of beautiful visions for the future life.
But life is always full of surprises. This silver – shaded cat has a unique habit. It especially likes to purr and is also very keen on kneading. As a result, the peaceful sleep I originally expected completely failed. At three or five o’clock in the morning, I am often woken up by the purring sound when it kneads. Imagine in the dead of night, suddenly waking up from sleep, and in front of you is a big face in a well – behaved sitting position, purring at you. The purring sound is extremely loud in the quiet night, making it impossible to fall asleep. Every time at this time, I can only helplessly pick it up and try to reason with it. But it immediately starts to act cute and coquettish, looking at me with its innocent eyes, making me lose my temper immediately. It is really annoying and funny.
As time goes by, I increasingly find that this cat has an extremely gentle side. When it is gentle, I become a bit unreasonable. I like to knead it, touch it, and kiss it anytime and anywhere, even when it is asleep. I know that it must have restrained the urge to bite me and scratch me countless times. Several times, it was woken up by me, obviously very angry, and had already put on a posture to pounce on me. But in the end, it just gently licked me and then nestled in my arms. Every time I see its such behavior, a sense of guilt wells up in my heart, and I can’t help but say to it, “Sorry, I was wrong, and I will do it again.” Because its gentleness is so fascinating to me that I always can’t help but want to get close to it.
In the days of getting along with this silver – shaded cat, although there is the trouble of being woken up, there is more joy and warmth it brings. Its purring sound, although sometimes it breaks the tranquility of the night, has also become a unique note in my life; its cute and coquettish behavior makes me feel endless sweetness in my tired life; its gentle tolerance makes me realize the deep love of the cat for its owner. Its existence makes my life colorful and full of unexpected surprises. I know that in the days to come, it and I will continue to accompany each other like this, creating more interesting and warm memories together, and I will cherish every moment with it more.
