    I have a cat, and we love each other, and since I have left for college my parents have informed me that she misses me dearly and has been acting out. (<< real life || dream >>) I came home from college for fall break and I was very happy to see my family and my old home and I relished it all. But I was eager to see how my cat reacted to my return. I found her and she found me but I could tell that she didn't immediately recognise me. She was trying hard. She went to pick up on my scent, but all of the new places I had been for the 2.5 months masked my scent. She sniffed very hard, and could start to realize it was me.
