A picture of a grey tabby cat lying on top of furniture covered with white fabric. The cat’s body is stretched out, its limbs are not visible, and its tail is draping around the furniture, making the cat appear as though it’s a snake.

A Twitter post by Dana Schwartz @DanaSchwartzzz that reads Whenever I scold my cat, I use the royal we" so she doesn't feel so ashamed. “We don't eat that. We don't chew on electrical cords," I say. It's as if I, too, have a problem with eating wires or plastic I found on the floor and she and I are working on that problem together.

We've been together through a lot. We met first in Kyiv, Ukraine, where my spouse and I decided to build our first family nest, rather small, but decent. My then future wife took Muscat from a family where he was born to a British shorthair cat, and it certainly shows.
Later on, in 2017, we moved to Berlin, Germany. It was certainly a challenge to find a pet-friendly apartment, but in the end we found one, and there Muscat immediately charmed the landlords. Did I say we've been through a lot together? Muscat is very sensible and affectionate. We have developed our own rituals that we follow daily. He knows exactly when am I going to bed, he demands butt scratches on a carpet when I return home from work. He had spent every single home office shift by my side during the pandemic, serving his cat duties of stress relieving his humans. He's been purring me into deepest and sweetest sleep even during our hardest times.
I am blessed to have Muscat in my life. To many more years!
