This is Baloo, a cat who couldn’t quite understand why her owner Ben was rejecting her thoughtful gifts of live rodents and birds
“She always looked so confused and sad, which made me feel pretty bad”
So Baloo decided to try a different tactic
She figured out that “after a while, it started getting a bit annoying having half dead animals dropped on your chest every morning”
And Ben might appreciate something nicer, something less…alive
“It took a couple of months of me rejecting her gifts for her to start bringing me leaves”
“They were always big, nice looking leaves”
Sometimes she would bring a twig instead of a leaf, just to mix it up
But these days, she has found lazier ways to show love for Ben
“When I’m upset or nervous she will hop up onto me, push me back so I lay down…”
“…and then she’ll just sit on my chest purring like mad and nuzzling my face with her nose”
