As someone who works in the industry of re-housing cats, I am delighted to see this new addition to your family.

I never wanted a cat before because I was concerned about not being able to give them the food they need because being vegan and all, but I very much always loved playing with them. I've had a few cats select my room to give birth and raise their kittens, and those were beautiful experiences to share space with an anima, but not because you're feeding it. All those cats eventually left though, uninterested in my food choices.
Well, luckily Meow can entertain us by having some seaweed and playing along with the vegan thing. I also never wanted a pet here because our life is so unstable and I really feel a pet is a lifetime commitment. Meow broke the rules because she chose us and won't leave, we are more her humans than she is our cat. Her mom died just after she was weened, so I've taken it upon myself to teach her hunting, well not really. I simply put her on my shoulder and we walk the property, anything that interests her, I put her near it and she has to do the catching and killing.
Much to my wife's dismay, Chairwoman prefers butterflies and grasshoppers. I like that she likes insects because they aren't stinky and gross like meat. I may or may not be guilty of covering up insect wings with a bit of dirt to hide the evidence 🤣.
I am not sure if cats learn their killer instinct or if they are taught it. I have seen mother kittens attempt to teach their young about killing mice and rats and it is a pretty gruesome sight when the mother goes into a trance of sorts while beheading the animal. The amount of time they put into tormenting the rat to the point of exhaustion in pretty harrowing as well. This is the way of nature though!
That's fantastica that you are looking after Meow. I commend you good sir!
