he just walked into the office where i work my day job one day. roughly a half hour before close. we locked eyes and he had already decided. i would be his. he sauntered up to me, and immediately rubbed the length of his body across my calf as i sat there in my chair. i was immediately enamored. he followed me as i got up to turn off the open sign, to go close the gates, as i went back to the office to grab my things, and finally as i went to the car to drive home. he just jumped right in and made himself comfortable on the passenger seat. quite unusual for a cat, but for the best. or so i thought at the time. you see, i wouldn't simply grab a cat and take them home. that's cat-napping. maybe they are comfortable living on the streets. but this cat chose to find himself a new home, and that was with me.
little did i know what was to come.
