You didn’t know how xe got here, nor why xe chose you. But now you had a pet: an alien cat. Did you choose xem, or did xe choose you? You didn’t know. But hey, who wouldn’t deny a free cat?

Xe was currently scratching the hell out of a cat post, its four claws leaving marks on it over and over, until xe caught a whiff of your scent and decided to trot on over.

”Meow?”
