“Cat lady” is sometimes said as though caring too much should be embarrassing. Yet noticing the shy cat under a hedge or stopping to make sure a hungry one is safe says something worth keeping.
A soft heart is not a flaw. It is the reason a frightened animal gets a patient voice, a bowl of food, and one more chance to trust the world.
So let the cats follow and let the label stay. If it means having a heart that notices them, it sounds much more like a compliment. 🐾
