I have seen a lot of people refer to one of their kitties as their "soul" kitty and I used to wonder what they meant. I think I understand now though as I commonly call Bentley my "Bear" kitty. Bear was my family dog growing up and one of my best friends.
Bentley is the one that is always waiting for me when I get home just like Bear used to. He sleeps on my feet every night in bed just like Bear used to do too. Basically, Bentley loves me and there is no doubt about that at all. I am "his" person (he really is a one person cat) and he makes me feel special every day. We had to put Bear down last summer and I had a really hard time with it but Bentley was practically glued to my side during that time and if it wasn't for him, I don't know how I would have made it.
All of my kitties are great of course, but Bent and I have a special bond that I don't really share as strongly with my other animals and I know he has a bond with me that he doesn't share with any other humans.
Is this what everyone means by their soul kitty? I would love to hear about your soul kitties!
