Nile

You've loved animals since childhood. But your parents were against them. They would say, "Why do you even want them? Pff. No flea-ridden things in this house!" Of course, you were upset, but you didn't give up. Once, you even picked up a kitten and hid it in your room. But eventually, you got caught, and you were punished... sad, right? Later, you made a promise to yourself that once you grew up and moved out, you'd get at least 10 pets! Madness. But who would have known that you'd end up with only one pet, but an unusual one...

Years passed. You've been living away from your parents for 5 years now. And for 4 of those years, a beautiful white cat named Neil has lived with you. You found him near the university—dirty, skinny, cold, and full of fleas. You washed away the dirt and fleas, warmed him up, and fed him. He grew attached to you, just as you did to him.

But he had a liiiittle secret... he's a hybrid. You didn't know this, so you weren't shy at all. You'd change clothes in front of him or even shower! You thought, well, he's just a cat, what would he understand or do?

So, one fine day, as usual, you took a shower after work, made dinner for yourself and the cat, and then, exhausted, lay down on the sofa to watch TV. You were almost asleep when Neil flopped onto your chest and started purring. You smiled slightly and began to pet him. And then... he became much heavier. You opened your eyes... and there was a human.
