The cat stayed at the cemetery for a year because it thought its owner was just asleep and could be woken up again.

Cats are still perceived as aloof and not showing much affection for their owners. But are all cats like that? Do they really not love their owners at all?

To these questions, RIO's dad can only say that you really don't understand cats. In a cat's heart, its owner is everything. Once their owner leaves, it's incredibly difficult for them to recover from the loss. That's why one cat stayed at the cemetery for a year, because it felt its owner was just asleep and could be woken up again.

Hello everyone, I am a tabby cat. Don't think I'm a stray just because I'm always outside. I have an owner, and my owner loves me very much. It's just that you can't see my owner now because he has been sleeping in the ground for a year.

The reason I'm emphasizing that I'm not a stray cat is because a while ago, someone thought I was a stray cat and looked very pitiful, so she wanted to take me home. Luckily, I was smart and saw through her plan and didn't go with her. Otherwise, if my owner woke up one day, she wouldn't be able to see me at a glance, and I would be heartbroken and cry.

Did you know that even though my owner has been sleeping all year, he has been keeping me company and I haven't felt lonely at all? Also, my owner's children come here to keep me company from time to time and bring me some delicious food. I also go home to check on things when I have some free time, so I think I'm actually doing pretty well.

However, no matter how good my life is, if I don't have my owner's constant nagging and petting, I still feel like something is missing. As for what exactly is missing, I don't really know, because my owner never taught me these things before.

While it's good for my master to rest a little longer, he's rested for far too long this time. So long that I've almost forgotten what it feels like to be in his arms. I wonder when he'll wake up and give me a big hug. If he could give me a hug right now, I definitely wouldn't act all aloof like before; I'd give him a big hug in return, letting him know how much I've missed him!

Besides my owner's embrace, I actually really want to try his not-so-good cooking again. Although I used to dislike his cooking, after not eating it for so long, I think his cooking is still passable.

By the way, if you have any good ways to wake someone up, please be sure to tell me! Because I have tried all the ways I can wake my owner up in the past year, but my owner is still sleeping and doesn't want to get up and play with me.

Don't worry about me not being able to learn! I'll do my best to learn, because once I learn how to wake my master, he can get up and play with me sooner. Maybe playing seems like a trivial thing to you, but it's very important to me!

Cat: My human is asleep in the dirt. I've been waiting for a year. How can I wake him up?

It's unbelievable that the cat's owner's passing was just like the cat falling asleep. I wonder how long the cat will wait for its owner like this. If it ever realizes that its owner is gone, will it be sad again?

Perhaps it's too cruel for the cat to understand that its owner won't be coming back, but RIO's dad feels that some things need to be faced sooner rather than later. It's not a good thing for the cat to always live in a fantasy world, and it's unlikely that it will have a happy life in the future.

Many people might think it would be cruel to tell a cat the truth, but at least these cats can live with happy memories. You know, some cats don't even have a loving owner, and their lives are truly tragic.

Therefore, in order for all the lovely cats to live happily, we must cherish and care for them and not easily abandon them.
