I've just got a question about animals being familiars.
A few days ago, I asked my cat Oliver if he would be my familiar (we have a very strong bond). I know that some people say you'll hear a voice, the voice of your familiar, giving you an answer.
I heard nothing so I assumed that the answer was no, or he "just wasn't getting it."
Yesterday, he started getting very clingy to me. Following me around, sitting in my lap, and waking up if I walked past the room he was napping in. He even decided to sit on my shoulder as I was using the computer.
Then it got strange- Oliver seemed to suddenly get very in tune to my interests.
As I was scrolling through Tumblr, he decided to jump into my lap and watch the computer screen. Then he began stepping on the arrow keys and scrolling down the page! He stopped on a picture of my favorite actor and began to rub his head against the screen and purr. (This made me smile.) Then he turned around and started rubbing his head on MY face. Then he jumped down and went away...
Then earlier today, I was playing the piano and he decided to perch on the edge and slap a few keys. He kept giving me this very intense look, I swear it was like he was learning.
Shortly after, he climbed onto the bookshelf (I love reading) and started sniffing all of the books. Until he sneezed and fell over.
Then, I went upstairs and logged onto this forum. As soon as I began typing this post, he ran up the stairs and jumped up next to me. Now he's just snoozing...
So, do you think this is his way of telling me that he has accepted my offer of becoming my familiar? Maybe the reason that I didn't get an answer the first day is because he was still deciding... Just like me, very indecisive.
So what do you think? I'd love to hear any comments.
