Akane Owari Neko Alphabet
Affection - How do they show affection? Do they rub up against you? Purr in your company? Show their neck? Are they affectionate towards you at all?
Akane is very affectionate toward you, even if she's a little clumsy about it. She loves to rub up against you, sometimes simply not knowing if she crosses a line into inappropriate.
Beginning - How did they come into your life? Were they originally as big a part of your life as they are now?
I'd imagine she's a pretty recent addition, and you likely took her in when you heard of the situation she was in, with poverty, trying to look after siblings, and watching people die of starvation all around her. And that sweet kitty couldn't be more thankful for you. <3
Collar - How do they feel about collars? Will they wear them? How do they like their collars? Studded? With rhinestones? A specific color? Specific material?
She's fine with things being simplistic, and even prefers it at times, not wanting to think you're wasting your resources on her. As someone who grew up with nothing, it's hard for her to imagine someone not being in that same situation, so she just doesn't want to have it just to lose it. But she won't mind wearing a collar if you ask her to, she's generally very laid-back about things like that, but it'll take a bit of getting used to!
Drugs - Do they like catnip? What are they like while on catnip? Are they more relaxed? More hyper? More hostile?
I feel like, on catnip, her more aggressive side would be more prominent. She'd be a lot more likely to engage in conflict or get into wild shenanigans. But her aggression would almost never be directed at you, but most likely, your furniture and the objects on your counter would suffer. :')
Ears - Are their ears sensitive? Do they like have them pet? What do their ears look like? Are they fluffy or sleek?
Her ears are sensitive, but not necessarily in a good way. It usually hurts her to have them touched, thanks to injuries she sustained as a child, but they're very fluffy and the same color as her hair with a little pink inside. I think she may also have some darker spotting along the skin of her ears, itself.
Food - What do they prefer to be fed? What do they hate being fed? Will they complain if they're fed something they dislike?
She is NOT picky. She will eat anything and will never complain about what she's given, even if she did hate it (which is a slim to none chance, anyway).
Good - Do they like to be praised? What's their reaction to being praised?
She'll be incredibly flustered and not really know how to handle being praised. It isn't that she doesn't appreciate
Heat - What are their heats/ruts like? Are they eager to breed? Or are they more able to control themselves? Do they go into heat/rut at all? How strong are their heats/ruts?
She does go into heat, and she hates herself for it and thinks it's part of her prior abuse. Nobody has ever taken the time to explain it to her, so she genuinely hates it about herself. Due to this, she tries her hardest to resist every part of the heat and ignore it or just pretend it doesn't even exist. If you explain it to her, she'll be grateful to you forever and more likely to accept her desires during this time.
Interests - What gets their attention the most? What do they like to fixate on when you're not home to play with them?
Food. At least, that's what she prefers, but she can really be entertained by anything. Just leave the TV on when you're away, and Akane will be occupied for hours.
Joking - Are they mischievous? Are they the type to set up pranks when you're away from the house?
Not really! Her intentions are usually innocent, but sometimes, if she sets up little surprises for you, they can go wrong because she's a little clumsy. But she does always mean the best. Unless you're actively competing in pranking with her, that is, in which case you can bet she'll have something waiting for you the second you're away from the house.
Kittens - Do they want any little ones? Would they be a good parent? How would they treat their babies?
Although she can be swayed with enough love and affection from someone she loves and trusts, she's seen too many cases of children dying, forced to become fighters, prostitutes, and drug dealers, and just never being able to meet their needs too much to want any kittens of her own.
Loyalty - Would they die for you? How much would they be willing to do for you?
She would lay down her life for you, and that isn't an exaggeration. You've done so much for her, and she would be damned if she didn't even try to do the same for you and return the favor.
Mondays - Do they have periods of being grumpy and moody? How can you help them with it? Do they get hostile while moody?
She doesn't usually get grumpy, but she'll get pretty fired up when in a competitive mood! But that's still just play, and she'd never hurt you. If she does genuinely get upset, just some nice food, even junk food, is enough to calm her down and give her time to center herself again.
Name - What do they call you? What do they like to be called in return? Any nicknames? Who gave them their name? Why? What does it mean?
She'll usually just call you by your first name or some sort of competitive moniker when she's trying to egg you on into competing with her. She just likes to be called Akane, however. An adoptive parent gave her her name because it means "deep red", a color of fire, which was visible in her fiery personality, even as a kitten.
Owner - How do they view the relationship between the two of you? Do they view it as platonic, romantic, familial, etc.?
Akane, thanks to the number of traumas and abuses she's suffered, has no way of differentiating them entirely, so you couldn't really label the way she feels about you, it'd pretty much be up to you to decide. She'd initially assume you want her because you lust after her, but over time, she'd start to trust you more and understand your intentions better. She's clumsy and ditzy, but she isn't stupid.
Purr - What makes them purr? What are their purrs like? Are they loud? Softer? Do they purr out of pleasure and pain, or just one? What does purring indicate for them?
She doesn't purr often. She presents a strong and aggressive front, so when Akane purrs, it's a rare but truly rewarding thing. It means she's... at peace. She doesn't feel in danger or the need to protect herself, she trusts whoever she's with fully.
Queen - How do they treat their mates?
She'd treat them like her closest friend and buddy, because in the end, that's what they'd be! She wouldn't date someone who wouldn't also be her best friend and her lover in one! She'll just be a lot more curious about them and a lot more eager to make them happy, that's all.
Recreation - What toys do they own? Do they play with them? Do they prefer to play with them with you or on their own? What are their favorite toys, and which ones do they not enjoy at all? How playful are they?
She doesn't have many unless you got them for her, and she'd be a little confused on how to use them at first, but she'd warm up to them. I think, personally, she'd have the most fun with a laser pointer, since it keeps her active. She likes to be active and competitive.
Scratch - What are their claws like? Do they scratch often? What about scratching furniture?
Her claws are pretty unkempt and they're usually dirty, but she can't help it! She likes getting into and playing with the most random things. And I'd imagine her to scratch when she maybe gets a bit too excited, but rarely every intentionally, unless she's actively fighting someone or something.
Tail - What is their tail like? Is it sensitive? In what way? What color is it? Is it fluffy or sleek?
Her tail is incredibly fluffy! It's the same color as her hair with a few white speckles in the fur, and it's sensitive in a better way than her ears. If you tell her first, she'll let you pet it. But if not, she'll freak out.
Understanding - When you leave, do they whine about it? Or do they understand? Do they allow you to go? Or demand you bring them?
She's definitely on the more understanding side! Sometimes she'll imply that she'd like to come along, but if you say no, she'll accept it fairly easily and wish you a good day, nonetheless.
Vocalizations - What are their cat sounds like? Are they high-pitched or low-pitched? Do they sound needy? What kind of sounds do they make? What causes them to make those sounds?
She doesn't usually make cat sounds, being quite honest. If you scare the hell out of her, she might hiss at you, but that's about it.
Whiny - Do they whine when they don't get their way? Which of your appliances suffers for it? Or do they knock things off your counters?
No, she's very laid-back and doesn't really mind when she doesn't get her way! She doesn't actively try to harm your appliances or knock things off your counters, either, but sometimes, accidents happen.
X-Ray - Are they attuned to your needs and wants? Or do they sometimes need to be clued in? Are they apologetic or saddened if they don't understand what you want/need?
Akane is a ditz, but she's far from stupid. She may not know EXACTLY what you feel or want, but she'll always have a general idea.
Yearning - Do they miss you when you're gone? Or do they manage to entertain themselves until you return? What do they do when they miss you?
She misses you... for about twenty minutes before running off and finding something to entertain herself with. However, that doesn't mean she isn't absolutely elated when you come home!
Zzz - What are they like when asleep? Do they sleep-talk? Drool while they sleep? Do they purr in their sleep? Yowl? Meow? Are they a cuddly or solitary sleeper? Where do they prefer to sleep?
I think occasionally, you'd hear her mumble something incoherent when she sleeps, and yes, she's a drooler. But I don't think she'd make any other sounds. She also isn't picky on where she sleeps or if she's with you or by herself.
