We all know there are some fearless cats out there who do not shy away from showing hoomans what their intentions are. Those intentions can vary from 'do not even think about coming near me', straight to 'I am not leaving your side until you take me home with you'. Cats are such straightforward creatures; they do not have time to play the 'will they, won't they' game, they want what they want, and they will not hesitate to take action in order to make it happen.

Those of us who are lucky enough to be introduced to our furrever feline this way, know that this attitude does not cease to exist even after you fulfill the feline's wish and take them into your home. No, these pawdorable beings have only just introduced you to their chaotic and demanding purrsona, and the rest of your life together is going to be filled with the beautiful hurricane that is owning a cat.

    "Never owned a cat and not sure what to do!"

    A black cat near my AirBnB wouldn't stop following me around and then he hopped in my car! I took him to the vet and found out he doesn't have a microchip, and has fleas and ear mites.

    He is cute and very friendly, but I'm not sure what to do now. I was staying at the AirBnB while moving into my home, and I officially moved in today (same day as finding

    this guy!). I have a dog that will be coming down in a couple weeks and he has never been around cats so I'm not 100% sure how he would react.

    Honestly, I just need some advice. I was looking into getting another dog since it will just be me and I work long hours so I wanted a buddy for the dog I already

    own. About half my family members are allergic to cats which is why I never had one, and I don't hate cats but I guess I never saw myself owning one. I do like how he follows me, and his meows are just adorable.

    him through friends but not sure how long that will take. He is currently set up in the master bath/walk in closet, plenty of space for the time being!

    He is not neutered and will eventually need that done. If I'm going to give him away, I'm not sure how much money I'm ready to put out, I already spent $200!

    DisMrButters Get him some cat food, a litter pan, litter, and a scoop. Have fresh water available at all times. A wand toy is good, most cats like playing with you with them. Google low cost spay/neuter for your area. Good luck! He looks like a sweetheart.

    Cat update, I can't escape! He's been sleeping most of the day and I'm planning on reaching out to a shelter tomorrow for information on neutering. Everyone's advice has been very helpful!
