I love my cat. I love my cat. I need to tell someone how much I love my beautiful loving cat. Hubris. My beloved. My angel. Light of my life. My sun and my stars.   I almost feel guilty for how much I love this cat compared to the other cats I've had. I loved them too, but like, god, I love her so much. She feels like a renaissance painting when I look at her through my eyes, in the sense that I understand what could move mankind to paint holy beauty. She has such fierce independence and simultaneously gratifying, humbling levels of trust for me, and she always has, ever since I brought her home as a kitten and she slept snuggled against my chest the first night. She is at once fiery and fickle like only a calico can be, yet deeply loving and capable of surprising gentleness. She is bold and incautious to a fault, yet hisses at the vacuum cleaner and anything that sounds remotely similar (like a leaf blower) for its grave offenses. She is so clever and smart, and has learned ways to communicate using her body, like touching me when she wants attention or even a different kind of attention from what I'm giving her. And yet so, so loving dumb, like getting her head stuck in the tissue box for the third time, or failing to understand the basics of water physics that other cats seem to grok. I love my loving cat
