Perhaps you could get him a nice bowtie. Has he been doing alright?
[ almost as if on cue, there's a scratching at the door. kanaya shoots an intense look in its direction and claps her hands together loudly, the scratching stops. ]
[ it's an important thing to clarify. it is not a "we", and certainly not an "i". sure, kanaya may have inherited over half of them from nepeta and astral, but they are rose's. ]
[ fat orange gintendo has plopped down outside the door. he's given up scratching, but he will stand sentry until a way is provided for him. or someone picks him up and rubs his belly. if there are no belly rubs, he will lose interest and return to his post. ]

The cats aren't allowed in here. Don't worry about it.

[ Ugh, what a cute cat. A lot like hers. ]
