Kittens start out very fuzzy and often (but not always) get sleeker and sometimes coarser fur as they grow up. Devi still has an awful lot of cobwebby kittenish fur. It makes her squoogable. I think it may indeed be undercoat fur that gets covered with overcoat, but I'm talking out of my ass now.
Someone needs to invite ita to watch when a kitten first learns to hiss. They tend to go overboard for a few days once they figure out how to do it at will. They roar around hissing fiercly at anything and everything and sometimes startle themselves with it and then poof up all fierce and.... HISS MORE. ita, you'd be bowled over by the wee ferocity and CUTE.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
By the time we got our cat, way back when, I think it was past that point, sara.
I was around when cousins got theirs, though, and it was an adorable fuzzball of ineffective savagery.
Not sure what happened to it in the end. I hope they just gave it away.

But probably incredible destruction....kittens are like that.
They are pretty little when I've seen it happen, not weaned. Well, there was another who was close to 6 months, but he was raised by humans from the time he was a week old. It wasn't until he was accepted by the other (older) cats we had that he began to pick up some normal cat behaviors.

Destruction of the stationary, sure. But not a good enough stalker to get close to the unwary human.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
There are flowers and candles piled up around the fire hydrant on my corner. What a fucked up thing.

Well, if the human is stationary this can happen...

They can cause an awful lot of chaos when you aren't looking. Cats too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gawd, that's the worse place... because it tickles there.

I read that article this morning. How awful, brenda. Glad you weren't home.
Those on-the-spot memorials bother me. We don't see them around here too often, but they're just not my thing.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Really? I can think of two in my town off the top on my head, and a third only disappeared when they bulldozed the intersection as part of road reconstruction.
Of course, we also have the former site of the Station, which has dozens of memorials on it.
