Personality--> Me? Well, my fellow pals have described me as too cheery, too goody-goody, too spirited.. too clumsy, as well. I must say, I sure am the cheery type! I love talking to people and exploring the small city I call my world. And I am the definition of cheery. Cheery should be my middle name. Cherilyn Cheery.. Hm, I don't have a last name. And that sounds kind of weird. Don't think my cheeriness is why my owner named me Cherilyn, though.. But goody-goody? I do like avoiding conflict, but sometimes the inner beast inside of me perks up with a fighting spirit.. which usually doesn't end up well due to my short stature and lack of body strength, sadly. So no, I'm not goody-goody! I just can't help being happy and loyal, thank you. Despite that I may look like I'm the shallow-type who doesn't think that much, I actually do consider things in my teeny tiny brain. And I'm not clumsy, heck no! I just.. trip every once in a while. And it just happens that there's always somekit that witnesses me doing this, which doesn't help my case.
Likes--> The top of my favorites list has to be the feeling of joy and spirit! For some reason, people believe that joy is part of "Christmas spirit," but no, this "Christmas spirit" should be year round! I mean, Christmas is special to me. It's when the city suddenly starts glowing with lovely lights and the atmosphere is just so.. relaxed and happy. It's the only time when stores sell candy-canes!! It's a different kind of feeling than the rest of the year, and the time when joy arrives much more. But everyone, everywhere, everyday deserves a little skip of happiness, and it just makes me so happy when I see their excited faces.
Snow, snowflakes, snow days! The "white Christmas" humans refer to! Waking up to a landscape of whiteness is just really something, you know? It may be a bit chilly, but my fur keeps me warm enough to run around! I also love catching snowflakes on my tongue because of how the way it feels when they melt.
Sitting next to the fireplace with my owner is fun as well~ Usually she sits in her chair and reads, but that's okay! While getting warmed up lying down near the heat, I'm content with watching her, however creepy that might sound, but it's not like she notices. She gets caught up with whatever she's doing, and it's so fun to watch some of her expressions -- sometimes she randomly starts cracking up in the middle of nowhere, but I'll understand that it's because she read something hilariously funny, though she does have a weird sense of humor. Oh, she literally gasps out loud when she reads something she really hates. And then she starts ranting to me about it, even though I wasn't involved in it in the first place.. but it's okay! She's not weird, just special. <3
Food, especially candy canes! Though if I eat too much sugary things, I'll get stomachaches for a while.. It makes me sad that I have to limit myself on them. I just want my daily sugar intake, okay. ;-;
Dislikes--> Some bearded, old man I keep seeing in the stores every year during Christmas. Santha, something like that..? Man, some of the kids sure do look happy when they get to sit on his lap, but he makes others cry! How could he do that to the poor little children?! Terrible, terrible..
Hm, what else do I not like? ..Oh, fake snow! One year where I live, there wasn't snow like usual. To say that I was sad is an understatement -- I was so miserable! I looked so heartbroken that my owner decided to take me somewhere that appeared to have gotten snow. I was so happy just looking at it, and as soon as I leaped out of the car and landed on the ground.. to only walk back into the vehicle after standing there for a second. You can't just replicate the delicate feeling of snow -- there's just something so certain to it! The texture, the coldness, the smell. And if you can't replicate it, don't even try making it seem like the real thing!
I also dislike the type of kids that try to pull my leaf off my head and stretch out my face! Sure, they look happy doing it, but nope nope that's not how I planned to spread cheer. RUDE.
Um.. it's my first time saying it out loud, but there's also something I don't like -- greed. It doesn't make sense to me how selfish some can be, doing things only for their interests and gains. Not looking at the world around them. I wish I could say that I'm the type of kit who can look at the world in a positive light, but sometimes you have to consider how much terrible things there are in the world. It's our job to look at them, not ignore them, and find a way to change it into something more positive. And it's not something I really hate, but more of something I get really sad thinking about. But we're gonna fight this and win, and then it won't be on my dislike list anymore!
