Cass' online classes start at 7:30 a.m. and only end at around 3 p.m. everyday. Her days are pretty hectic, though classes are 100% remote. Whenever there are breaks in between her classes, she will de-stress and get her dose of laugher and pet therapy from Haru. But she can sometimes be overzealous in the way she shows her affection towards Haru - she hugs and squeezes Haru till she shrieks, she tosses Haru slightly in the air and makes Haru bleat and growl or chases Haru till her tail bristles up. If I were a cat, I wouldn't want to be handled like that 😹
But whenever Cass is gentle with the cat, Haru can remain still on her lap, watches Cass play a game or two or watches You Tube with her.
This is the look from Haru just before she bites us. She loves to bite us when her playful mode is switched on or when she's busy with something and we try to play with her. |
In troubled times like now during the COVID-19 pandemic, pets can offer more than just a slobbery greeting or good-natured nuzzle, in Haru's case, she likes to tap on our leg with her paw to say 'hi' to us.
Haru is a great listener 😁. I tell her things that I can't tell anyone else in the house and no unwelcome advice is given, and sometimes, just saying things aloud can help me feel better rather than bottle up the feelings.
