- He gives actual hugs.
Not ācat-style affection.ā Not a polite leg rub. I mean full-on, arms-around-my-neck, genuine hugsāevery. single. day. It is adorable and sometimes the BEST part of my day.

He runs to me like Iām the main character.
I can be in the middle of a meltdown or just opening a can of soda, and here he comesāflying in from another room like, āMy human needs me!ā
Heās got emotional radar.
Somehow, he knows the difference between āI stubbed my toeā and ālife is lifing too hard right now.ā Thatās when he turns on maximum purr mode.

Therapy sessions are 100% confidential.
Heās heard every rant, every ugly cry, and not once has he told a soul. Best therapist Iāve ever had. Cheap too, works off lovies
He reminds me that love doesnāt have to be complicated.
He doesnāt need words, money, or plansājust a lap, a snuggle, and maybe a treat afterward. (Boundaries are important.)

Heās the king of comfort.
Heating pads? Overrated. Weighted blankets? Optional. Warm, vibrating cat on your shoulder? Perfect.

He makes me believe in the healing power of small moments.
Every time he chooses meāout of the whole houseāto snuggle, it feels like the universe reminding me that Iām worth comfort, too. Til next time gang, take care of yourselves, and each other.
