Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ not all wounds are visible or so easily cured. let's try two first. ]

[ Approaching the large cage next to the white tiger, there's a grey-ish, black-ish tiger inside. ((never mind the fierce look , it's not!!!) You can't see any visible scratches or bites, but seeing it you feel irritated and sad and guilty. It has numerous tags on its collar (which really resembles a scarf?), a few of which seem to have suspiciously been removed, the front-most which is silver and reads "YATO."

In another of the cages there's a Persian cat inside. You can't see any visible scratches or bites, but you feel angry when you see this cat.It has numerous tags on its collar, the front-most which is silver and reads "CROWN." As you approach it, the cat draws away from you, like its wary. Unlike any other hissing cat you've seen today, though, it has decided to greet you by peeing. Everywhere. ]

Ah. That's nice, isn't it? Very nice.

[goes to get a towel, sigh]

[DESPERATELY TRYING TO AVOID CAT PEE, she is probably not entirely successful]

Jesus Christ.

[and then since she sees daisy is going to get a towel, she's approaching the tiger's cage, trying to get Yato cat out]

Can you grab one for me, too? This shit is nasty.

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[eluvianathema]

[grabbing another towel for Natalie]

Do you want to try Yato, and I'll take Mr. Pee-on-everything-that-comes-near-me?

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[robitussin]

If you're okay with that, I would really like to not get pissed on again. Thank you and I'm sorry.

[time to get yato cat out]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[eluvianathema]

It's alright.

[she's approaching the cage with Pee Cat in it]

Ghilan'nain, I've one of your creatures to heal--lend me your aid.

[speaking gently to the cat as she slowly opens the cage]

I won't hurt you, da'len.

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ this creature--is it really a cat? or maybe it's more like a gremlin. It seems entirely untamed and unsocialized, and it hisses again when you approach ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[eluvianathema]

Oh, hush. You're not doing yourself any favors like that. Let me see... have you been eating well? If you're relieving yourself just like that, maybe you need better food.

[going to find some cat food and water to bring to it]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ Well, he does seem very appreciative of food and water, yes. In fact--he might be resource guarding?? Is that a thing cats can do??? Whatever, he's totally being ridiculously possessive of this food bowl right now as soon as Daisy puts it in. ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[eluvianathema]

Go on, I won't take it from you. I'll turn around so I can't see you eating it.

[does so]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ he scarfs that shit down so fast you might think he's gonna choke if you watched

but...

it does seem to increase his trust in you. at least a little. ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[eluvianathema]

Good. That wasn't so bad, was it?

[holds out her hand to it--not going to try and pet it, but letting it know the hand is there, so it can decide whether or not it wants pets]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ it sniffs at your fingers warily. they kind of smell like food....

it tries to bite, but not necessarily savagely. he just wants more food!! ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[eluvianathema]

[laughs and gives it some more, but this time she'll watch]

Don't forget to drink, too.

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ he hesitantly takes this as well.

IS HE TRYING TO LOAD HIS BLADDER WITH MORE AMMUNITION, or is he perhaps rounding a bend here? ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ Well, the good news is that yato cat doesn't pee on you. the bad news is that while you were going away to the other cat he was trying to tear down the cage door to get to you, but as soon as you try to approach it, yato cat is trying to RUN AWAY even though there's a cinderblock wall in the back preventing him from doing so ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[robitussin]

[standing at the entrance to the cage]

Hey. What's the matter? I'm not going to hurt you.

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ now it's... playing dead? doubling down???? ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[robitussin]

[slowly opening the cage door]

What's up with you, huh? I'm just trying to help.

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ frustrating, isn't it?

he still seems to be trying to give you the cold shoulder. for a cat anyway ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[robitussin]

[hesitantly making her way towards him]

Come on...

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ OKAY WELL IF YOU INSIST!!!!!!

suddenly there is a grown adult tiger trying to be a lap dog on top of you. ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[robitussin]

[she is a twig, so that's basically sending her to the ground]

...Figures.

[petting him, though]

Feeling better?

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[soulping]

[ maybe?? he is being aggressively affectionate now, though, nuzzling and purring on you and basically acting like a gigantic kitten. ]

Re: THE CAT CAFE

[robitussin]

Oookay, that's enough of that. Time to get off, now.
