I love the word "creature" because it just sounds so much more mysterious and funny than a "cat".

Like I got this wonderful weird creature inside my house, its so warm, so squishy, vibrates a weird sound (purring), it can fit in a backpack as a travel companion (like walk around the neighborhood, not long distance travel lol).

Its so soft and squishy, I must touch the belly (its not a trap, at least for the first few seconds of touching its free real estate).

Wait, is that image a cat or a rabbit? 🤔

"You know those creatures that run around and eat those mice? One of them came in my house." "Did you chase it off?" "no" - first cat owner.
