grammar & spelling, do not read unless *really* bored!]

When I was a kid I treated my cat like a little baby. Even when she was
no longer a kitten - she was an adult cat, she was still pretty small.

She was so cute - seriously.

I know it's dogs who like affection and cats that are meant to be
selfish & only want food. My cat was different. Even when fed, she come
to one of our beds (when we were lying sleeping) and she'd always curl
up (like a round circle) and sit right on/around/near our chests (on
top of the quilt)

I remember my cat used to sometime crawl under the quilt and sit by my
shoulders/chest. I could often feel the purring - like a vibration
(when i mean 'feel' - I dont just mean hear)

It still freaked me out when I was about 7/8 years old when I saw my
cat had caught a bird in the garden. She was so cruel - it would be
half alive and she would play with it. She would set the bird free -
just for a second - it would limp away and then she'd pounce on it
again.

another thing.. I remember in 1995/6 .. doing my school assignments. My
cat would come and sit down next to me & play with every object on the
desk. Then she'd sit on the monitor and just look at me. (I'd continue
working.. avoiding the distraction.. cos the assigment is so overdue).
Then she'd go and sit right on the keyboard - actually sitting on some
keys.

Remember cats - cute as they are , are very vicious killers. I suppose
that's nature for you. if they weren't I guess they'd be like goats,
grazing on grass

When I see a cat /kitten I get the same feeling when I see a cute
baby/kid
