#trans cat tips

[blairhatesyou]

Hi hello hilo hi hi um um can I pls request maybe perma/transcat tips if you haven't already that aren't centered around appearance or activities ?

- a friendly being

trans / perma cat tips

that arent just activitys or looks

( no colored text under cut)

note ; some of these tips aren't exactly the best written and they're more just kind of like little things that I think give off cat energy ? idk

feeling safest around beings who let closeness happen naturally instead of trying to force intimacy too quickly

feeling comfort from simply existing near another being without needing conversation or interaction the whole time , like body doubling / parallel play

emotional exhaustion from being “on” socially for too long. not necessarily disliking others , just feeling better when allowed to exist quietly and independently. Focus on having a more introverted, kind of personality not shy, but private

wandering into rooms just to be near other beings and then not actually interacting much once you’re there , just kind of observing (?)

getting possessed by sudden confidence for absolutely no reason and acting like you own the entire situation , I feel like I see this more in orange cats, but you get the point

forgetting what you were doing mid action but committing to the bit anyway like it was intentional ( also an orange cat tip more or less hehe )

slow blinks with beings you care for , napping next to beings , ect

having one designated spot that you sit in consistently or a place in your house with little trinkets and what not

this isn't based around personal appearance, but it's kind of appearance ? cat gear whatever it may be for you and I'm not just talking about the ears in the tail. I'm talking about cat toys , bowls , beds , ect .

oke thas all i have sorry if these are way too behavioral. I kind of struggled with this one. also srry for any typos I'm using speech to text
