    We spoke to Daphne's mom about what it's like bringing your best friend to college and the great reactions she gets when they go out together on campus.

    When I met my future husband, early on I told him he'd have to pass the Vorpal Kitty test. He asked what that was and I told him, "The only guy I ever went out with that hit me, she hated." Luckily, she purred immediately upon meeting him so I knew he was a good egg. Daphne knows your b/f is, too! Cats can tell!

      You reminded me. When my now husband and I were in a long distance relationship, we'd call every night. Sometimes I'd hear him pet his (now our) cat, cooing all kinds of mushy words to her.

      As the saying goes, "You can't fool animals and little children." Little children (before they get old enough to learn to distrust their feelings like, under five years) are also great barometers of people's authenticity. They, like animals, sense when someone is not a good person. As we get older, we're taught not to trust our own instincts, but to believe what we are TOLD to believe. Animals, thank goodness, rely on their instincts, not their stupid owner.

      @linda-louiseanthony9802 Před 21 dnem +10

      @@elisaa9981 I suppose she'd be better off running around outside unattended? And as shown by the video, Daphne was MISERABLE at home with her Grandmother. And she's getting out of the dorm room plenty. Plenty of Japanese cats live in apartments like this their whole lives. There are plenty of ways to provide enrichment for cats who reside in small apartments. My 2 cats do NOT go outside unless they're wearing a harness and a leash. The exact same situation as with Daphne here. Nothing wrong with Daphnes living situation. It's not permanent.

      A girl who lived on my floor freshman year had two Pekin ducks that lived in her room and she'd leave her door open and they'd always be up and down the hall. Definitely wasn't allowed, but the RA partied more than anyone else on the floor and didn't seem to care about anything haha.

    Cats are great at reducing stress. I can swear to this. I have an anxiety disorder due to past trauma and once I got a cat again, my panic attacks were almost non-existent and so many other things. Having an animal to care for and love on is wonderful for mental health, no matter what you're doing in life.

Having her with you was such a good idea as she was so upset when you went away to school. All she knew was that you were gone and she was heartbroken you were gone. You have done a great job of socializing her and now she makes friends with so many people who are nice to her. You'll have to get her a little cap when you graduate! Best wishes and good luck!

    When I was in university there was no way I could have a cat in a dorm, and no way I could be without cats so I adopted 2 little boys from the shelter and always rented a room in someone’s house or apartment. It made it harder to get a place but was entirely worth it - and my landpeople usually were glad to have the cats around too. Decide what’s essential and make it happen ❤
