Oh, it's a tale as old as time. Every single cat person knows it. The stories are iconic, the stories are relatable, and they are unforgettable. The stories of people who hated cats falling in love with them. The most iconic variation of this story is, of course, dads who didn't want cats falling in love with cats. But there are many other subcategories of people who claimed they didn't want cats suddenly loving cats. And this time, we're talking about the moms' side. 

It happens the exact same way with every person every single time. They will fight tooth and nail to convince you that they don't want cats in their home, for this reason and that reason. They will do everything in their power to make sure that the floofball will not set paw in their home. And then… when you bring the kitty in anyway, suddenly, in a complete 180, these people who 'didn't want cats' are suddenly the ones pampering them the most.

    Font - she wolfe of wall street @queend236 My mom is moving and we went to look at condos and she said there wasn't enough space for her cat to do her zoomies. The same cat she adopted "only bc she wanted to help the shelter." The cat she has no emotional attachment to. Why do parents LIE about their feelings for pets? 3:15 PM Jun 1, 2023 3.2M Views 3,970 Retweets 424 Quotes 75.5K Likes 1,269 Bookmarks

    The one real question that we have when it comes to this phenomenon is: why? Why do these people fight the cat love so hard? Why, even after they begin pampering the heck out of these kitties, do they continue and persist that they don't love them? Cats are very loveable. Accept it. Embrace it. Love it. Love them. Ain't no one judging you.

    Font - she wolfe of wall street @queend236 You're taking your pets zoomies into consideration in a place you're buying, but you only got her to help out be so fr 3:16 PM Jun 1, 2023 · 172.6K Views 109 Retweets 3 Quotes 6,848 Likes 8 Bookmarks

    This mom does not simply love this cat. This mom is the epitome of a cat person. She is the cat person. If you are someone who is taking into consideration your pet's ridiculous quirks when buying a house, then you are - and we are not sorry at all to say - a true cat person.

    Font - thique & tired @aymbersings ... My mom was hesitant about getting a dog. She now cooks custom meals for him every week, serves them on "his plate", plays soft jazz so he can sleep better at night & cuts up his treats diagonally because “that's the way he likes it"

    Font - LA Knight & Co @LA_Knight89 81 3:54 AM. Jun 2, 2023 · 3,144 Views ... My parents' cats (Scaredy Cat & Floof Cat) are obsessed with my dad who is allergic. They come in his office begging for pets. "Get out of here," he says while petting the cats he is allergic to. "Why do you keep coming in here? Scram. Get lost. Fur heads," while STILL PETTING.

    Font - William F Tulloch @CPTDoomDC ... Ma didn't want the cat, but it was a stray who adopted Dad and wouldn't take "no" for an answer. Ma named her "Beastie" and insisted she only tolerated Dad's pet. Then you'd come into the room when she thought she was alone and she'd be cradling Beastie like a baby. 4:51 PM Jun 2, 2023 350 Views

    Font - Adventuring @ladysparkleshoe We bought a whole house for our stray cat. My husband secretly loves the thing. He just likes to pretend otherwise. The cat loves him so much. I've never seen a cat love a human like this. It's adorable. The denial cracks me up 7:38 AM . Jun 2, 2023 1,740 Views
