In my warm little home, NONO and Beibei, these two cats, with their unique personalities, add endless colors and joys to life. They are like two elves with distinct personalities, performing their own wonderful stories in this small space.
NONO is the larger and extremely clingy cat. Its dependence on the owner is like a shadow, always accompanying. Wherever I go in the house, NONO always follows closely, gently rubbing its soft body against my legs and making a coquettish cry, as if telling its love and reluctance for me. Whenever I sit down, it can’t wait to jump onto my lap, nestle comfortably into a ball, and make a happy purring sound in its throat. That sound is like a cheerful song of trust, conveying its full dependence and trust in me.
Beibei, on the other hand, is completely different. Although it is also close to me, it has a cold side. Usually, Beibei always maintains an air of independence and reserve, pacing gracefully in the room, like a noble who stands aloof from the world. Only when I sit on the chair will it occasionally take the initiative to jump onto my lap and lie quietly, making a soft purring sound. These short moments of intimacy make me deeply feel the hidden tenderness and love in its heart.
Beibei’s intelligence is vividly demonstrated in daily life. Whenever it finishes its business in the litter box and notices that I am beside it, it will quickly flee the scene like a naughty little madman. It knows in its heart that I will take it to clean its bottom, and this is obviously not something it is willing to do. Its cleverness often makes me laugh.
When it comes to their performance in excretion, the difference in their personalities is even more prominent. NONO is a bit chubby and has a lazy personality. When dealing with excrement, it always seems careless. It often simply covers it with cat litter casually and then finishes the job. Beibei, however, has a very high sense of vigilance and responsibility. Once it smells the smell left by NONO, even if it is doing its own thing, it will immediately rush to the litter box and carefully bury NONO’s excrement tightly with cat litter. This behavior stems from the instinct of cats. They try to cover their smell by burying excrement to avoid being discovered by enemies. For NONO’s casualness, perhaps it feels safe enough at home and doesn’t need to worry too much; while Beibei’s preciseness fully reflects its character of always being vigilant.
In their attitudes towards strangers, the difference in their personalities is also very obvious. When acquaintances come to the house, or even when my son comes home, NONO is always very enthusiastic. Anyone can easily hold it in their arms, and it will obediently enjoy this intimacy without any precautions. However, Beibei is completely different. Except for me and my husband, even if my son wants to hug it, it will immediately make a “ha” warning sound, with the fur all over its body slightly bristling and a clear sense of hostility in its eyes, as if guarding its territory and not allowing any strangers to approach easily.
NONO and Beibei, one is enthusiastic, clingy, lazy and casual, and the other is cold, smart and highly vigilant. Although their personalities are completely different, they live in harmony in this home and jointly form the warmest and most interesting part of my life. Every move and every expression of them are deeply imprinted in my heart, allowing me to feel the unique charm and endless joy of cats.
