In an earlier post, Cat with No Name, I hinted that our furry friend did, in fact, have a name. These photos of her fast asleep on my lap feel like the perfect moment to finally share it. The name we settled on suits her purrfectly.

Everyone, meet Velcro.

The name came from the simple realisation that she is, in every sense, a velcro cat. She follows me from room to room, begs for cuddles, and gives them right back. Most cats I’ve known enjoy affection only in short bursts before retreating for alone time — but not Velcro. You practically have to peel her off. I can’t step away for a second without her appearing at my side.

I’ve never known a cat to be quite so affectionate.
