Smartie!

when i tie uncomfortable laced shoes over my bent hooves,

it doesn’t end when i try to socialize with humans

and end up looking at them like a confused wild thing standing across from them in a store,

it doesn’t end when i’m clear-headed

and i can form coherent thoughts, and can think enough to ask myself what i really am,

i step out of the woods

and stand next to humanity on the bus,

in a library,

and in a restaurant,

and sometimes they meet my eyes

and know i take my animalness with me

with every step i take towards them.

my beasthood is a marriage vow

in sickness and in health

in a kitty cat!! u gotta give me lots of pets and attention or i'll get sad!! /ᐠ - ˕ -マ

This is an easy first step in actually doing things to experience your nonhumanity instead of just being a consumer and posting online.

And don't get all defeatist on me about it until you've tried it. I know it likely won't be perfect, be it on account of your body, your environment, or any other factors, but you can still make changes for the better in your life without them being perfect. Doing it part way is better than not doing it at all.

I had a look at your blog and saw you're a snow leopard, so I hope that's the type of cat you meant. And I went with white and gold.
