Kitten's Enthsiastic Articles

... Which is what, half of you guys? If not more? I know a majority of you guys are very shy introverts but anyway

Hi sweeties, how are you doing? I haven't really asked you darlings, you're always so fussy about asking others how they are, well, how are you? How's your diet? How's your mental health? How are you handling holiday stress, etc

I'm happy to listen to you cuties whine if you need to, but I also hope you've been okay, you're always so preoccupied with tens of thousands of things, please make sure at least one or two are about yourself, okay hunny? ??

I guess I was missed a bit, it's cute knowing how much people genuinely care on this site, I guess people noticed when I disappeared for a minute. (To the sadist community at large, hi sweetie, I'm okay, pls chill, y'all are too damn adorable istfg) 

What was I up to you're probably wondering, honestly not much, tried getting a new job, that was a shit show in less than 9 days so looking for a new job again (at least I was only there like a week so no biggie) 

How is my mental health? Surprisingly, a lot better than this time last year, I think it's cause I got sick (pesky virus played tag you're it and been sick for about 8 days now) 

(And yes I was a good girl™ and stayed home while sick and did my best to take care of myself and yes I tried my best with eating healthy and drinking water, don't y'all start lmao) 

Still fighting the dumb virus but just kinda chilling at home and resting off and on, was debating what to write in the future (I admit I got sorta shy cause everyone was nice to me on here and I got shy lmao) 

But ya, figured a little update was probably needed since I could tell several have been lurking or wanting to check on me (none of you dorks are subtle god, but it's so goddamn adorable)

The sadist community - "fear us cause we're evil and smart and blah blah psychology nerds blah blah"

Also the sadist community "sweetie are you okay ??? We love you ?" 

Like I can't get over how cute you dorks are. 

(You idiots made me blush so I totally reserve the right to do it right back haha) 

But really, thank you to everyone who's been checking on me or was worried, I'm okay, mostly, minus the head cold and slight work drama but I'm a tough kitty! I'll be okay! We got 9 lives for a reason!! ??

That might sound blunt and demanding, but after the morning I had today, I am left utterly bewildered and confused

Two friends who are extremely deserving of gifts and nice things told me they either never get gifts or rarely get gifts, I was baffled and so utterly confused when to me, it's perfect logic and totally deserved as they're good people who absolutely deserved the Christmas gifts I gave them today

My heart honestly broke for them both when they both said the same things.. 

I don't understand.. 

I know people can be terrible but goddamn

Please, if you have someone in your life who is deserving of gifts, get them something, it doesn't even have to be something big, even the smallest gift can mean the world to someone

Is someone in your life ignored? Over looked? Taken for granted? Treated badly? Be kind this holiday season, it's still important and still needed. 

I'm still in shock that my friends aren't regularly appreciated in their lives

Don't let yours go unappreciated either. 

Just felt sentimental and like leaving them a bread crumb in case they ever see this or wanna say hi again some day

Sir Cammy : Hello Sir, I gotta admit, I didn't... Exactly stay the proper kitten you left me as.. Life was a mess when you found me and then kinda got worse when you left, I don't blame you nor hold it against you, I truly hope you graduated college.. I'm doing my best to take care of myself at least but ya, even by my writing, you can probably tell the high protocol and way you left me didn't stick entirely, but I still try to mind my manners and be polite more often than not. Also, yes, I did finally move away from my parents and all that drama, moved several states away lmao. The things you did for me, the safety you gave me, the education, everything, all of it, they're still invaluable things I cherish deeply. 

Sir Black : Heya,... Forever still wondering what happened that one day with "Kitty" cause I am probably gunna wonder that for years haha. As for the expectations you left me with.... Okay ya they uh... Didn't really reach them.. But ya know.. I try to live healthy and safely as much as I can.. It's not always easy but I'm trying.. Ps, I still think your tummy is cute. ♡

Sir Ash : I miss your hugs, you gave the best hugs and I miss cuddling you but I truly hope your life got better

Sir Johnny : You told me you still felt that even after all these years that my happiness and safety was a priority for you... Andy eventually tried to get in contact with me again and I blocked him after like a day of talking for one final time, I know you'll probably scold me for even talking to him but I was curious but ya. I won't forget how you went out of your way to warn me and try to keep me safe even if I wasn't your kitten anymore and hadn't been for years. I still appreciate what you did for me. 

It's been some years and I can't remember all my past owners because of trauma and memory issues but if I missed anyone (cause I know I'm missing a few) 

Just know I probably still appreciate you and still have fond memories even if I can't totally remember everything

Love - Mittens / Shadow etc (I don't even remember all my given names lmao) 

So I've met people that follow this strictly and also people that have no idea what that even is

I think for most, people have probably heard some of it or something about it so I just wanted to go through it for my own sanity to have as a reference and for others in case they ever needed one, it seems like people either don't know or if they know they don't often educate others, so I'm gunna do that instead

Now I'm not sure where this higherarcy originally comes from, at most I think it had something to do with the "Old Guard" or people from that time but it might honestly be a lot older than that.

Whatever the case, the higherarcy as it was explained to me when I was first getting in this community, it came from reading things from a bdsm website, the site isn't around anymore but they had tons of information on the lifestyle and old traditions and so on, my first Owner Sir Cammy, gave me the website as a massive bdsm crash course on everything I needed to know, it was paramount I understood everything I was getting into before he agreed to be my Owner and protector, he stressed constantly that I was educated and understood things and would spend hours explaining something if needed be, he had to be double, triple and quadruple sure I understood everything before agreeing to anything and I still respect that about him because he made my safety as a complete noob feel like the most vital thing in the universe. 

The higherarcy goes as follows

At the top of the list - Regionals, Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses, Enforcers, Slave Drivers, Militants, Sadists, Daddys/Mommys

In the middle - switches, wild pets, littles as they out rank the majority of the pet community

At the bottom - pets, general submissives, slaves always came last as they're at the very very bottom

I'm probably forgetting a couple terms or roles and power levels but that's what I remember off the top of my head and generally what I go by, and I've seen tons of people follow similar or they at least know roughly about the higherarcy and all that. 

Hope this helps! 

(Oh my brain hurts after watching the latest video from wattsthesafeword and puppy Amp) 

As a kitten, I wanted to talk about the DDLG community from my perspective cause the kitten community was the one of the first to help them when they first faced major backlash. 

A couple years back, I believe before covid lock downs, there was a rise of DDLG, ABDL, age regression and what that was, the term "little space" was becoming more common, the community finally got main stream in a way and just like when kittens first came out in mass, they faced a horrific amount of backlash from the vanilla community and those who didn't understand anything or know the first thing about kink or the lifestyle we have or those individuals have. 

The kitten community, already familiar with helping the gay and sissy community, immediately jumped to action and I saw in mass, tons of loving and caring kittens coming together to aggressively give the "littles" a space to be safe, online especially, tons and tons of kittens were there for people and it was beautiful seeing two communities come together

Not every kitten is a little and not every little is a kitten but some are both and the love from the kitten community being there to uplift others who were scared and facing major hate and criticism was a beautiful thing to see happen. 

To touch on a topic that puppy Amp brought up in his video, I agree with him that lifestyle things should be done in lifestyle friendly places or at least, in a safe environment that either doesn't bother others or something

There's the never ending debate on whether or not the kink community should he allowed at pride and so on and so fourth

However, the kink and lgbt community have been a connected family ever since the AIDS crisis and was probably even before that time too. 

We deserve to be visible, we have a right to be visible but we also as a community should be smart and mindful of our safety and wellness and the mental health of ourselves and others as well as considerate of the spaces and people we're involved in when also engaging in anything lifestyle related. 

There's no harm in being polite and avoiding unnecessary drama. 

In the world of pet play there is differing levels or let's call them degrees of pet play, I've seen it go on in the puppy and pony community as well but given I'm a kitten and spent the most time with that immediate community, I wanted to share a lot of things. 

Now I'm by no means an expert but this is just things I've seen or otherwise observed over the years. 

For sake of simplicity I'll use the term "levels" to help navigate the kitten insanity lmao

Level 1 - This would be people who dress up in kitten gear but aren't taking it very serious, a tad more serious than just dressing up as Catwoman at a Halloween party but not by much. So let's say this is one step above just dressing up for Halloween. 

Level 2 - A bit more serious, maybe they like wearing the chokers, gloves, lace or other accessories for the aesthetic, but still, not taken very seriously, just a casual appreciation for the aesthetic

Level 3 - More serious, this would be the more common kittens who dress up regularly and preform in the context of a scene or just for their Owner or something, taken seriously but still fairly casual and has a defined time and place

Level 4 - More serious than the previous level as these kittens are in "cat mode" on a regular basis regardless of scene or people around, the severity of "cat mode" depends on the person and there's low severity to extreme if not boarding on Therian overlap

Level 5 - Therian overlap, a Therian is someone who feels like an animal on a emotional, spiritual or mental level due to a form of escapism from trauma, but they can also come from certain religions backgrounds that animals are very important in their religion and so on, it can be a very deep and meaningful thing for people to feel like an animal or express their more inner animalistic urges (think the Hunter and Prey community taken more seriously) 

For kittens in this level, we have our own higherarcy and side stuff that goes on

There's the domestic cats (like me, hi, hello, I'm a maincoon) or there's the wild cats (lions, panthers, leopards etc) 

Domestic cats listen to the wild cats but they don't often get owned by each other (think, glorified baby sitter / community protectors) I don't fully remember the whole breed higherarcy these days cause it's been a while since I've run into those people but I at least would respect or listen to any wild cat that was looking out for me or trying to help or something. (I remember that most wild cats aren't into being owned or it takes a big time sadist or Dom to own them properly and correctly and actually make them happy, they're definitely loners more often than not.) 

(I heard similar stuff goes on in the puppy community between the domestic puppies and wolf community) 

From my time when I was getting into kitten play and all that, we used the term "Neko" ("cat" in Japanese) as there is a lot of cat girls in anime and they looked or felt like what we did, a dip into Therian for sure, we know we're people but deeply still feel like cats and it's just always been that way (even I remember acting like a cat as a small child whenever I was stressed out) 

For a lot of people, pet play is casual but it can also be a deeply therapeutic thing and escape from a traumatic time or experience

But no matter what kitten you are, you're all valid and I'm happy we have the community we do

From the lingerie models to the people fighting for human rights and everything in between, we're a lovely community and I'm happy to share my knowledge any time. 

Yikes, after some research I learned some not so great things about the cat chateau so as a long term kitten, let me clear some air for sanity sake. 

Kitten play on the surface is kitten role play, kitten pet play in a bdsm / D/s dynamic where we have "Owners" instead of Masters or other Dom types (of course this varies and there's plenty of Masters and Daddy/Mommy Dom's with kittens it isn't really a hard rule, just the traditional way things tend to go) 

Under the surface, kitten play was a movement for women to reclaim their femininity and later we helped the sissy community and feminine gays community, occasionally even the drag community and trans community, we even have several different colored kitten pride flags that reflect the women, men, trans and drag individuals. 

We've always stood in solidarity with the lgbtqai+ community, drag community and so on. 

We don't get out much and I think most of us are introverts so we're not often seen at events as often as puppies or ponies. Those individuals get out far more but we're always around and lurking and have definitely had plenty of drama in defending others. 

 I myself even helped a sissy member when he was against a homophobe. 

So for many of us, kitten play is a reclaim of femininity and a safe space to be yourself in a safe environment. 

This will be a smaller more simple version of the mega history I know of. (I'll write the mega history later on after I brush up on some material) 

So where did bdsm and everything come from? Hard to say, but the best people have figured out is that it dates back to ancient Greece, ancient Egypt, ancient China, so on, it's kinda always been around under some name or another, sometimes it was open and part of a culture, other times it was underground, or in cases like places like Germany, it just casually and quite literally became part of their culture and infrastructure.. How? No clue but again, it's always been around. 

For some cultures it came from the war times when kings or men of the castles / elite were away for months or years at a time and the marriage they had if they had one would then become an open marriage and the wife/queen would get male suitors and the husband/king would get female suitors. In other cultures this term and practice was called "bed warmers" which acted like cuddle buddies and the relationships weren't always sexual in nature either. 

In ancient Egypt they had varying levels of servants and Greece did similar that different servants where tasked with different duties

For whatever reason, there has always been naturally submissive and naturally dominant people, it happens in nature all the time too with plenty of pack animals fighting for dominance or delegating tasks to animals lower in the higherarcy. 

It's just always been around since ancient times, I dunno if this history just isn't taught anymore or people just don't know but you're all part of something extremely ancient and beautiful. 

Pets, slaves, whatever kind of submissive you are, you're part of something that's incredibly ancient and I just think that's neat. 

Figured this was a good time to write something like this, recently in America we had Thanksgiving, but I didn't really get to say what I was actually thankful for as I keep a lot to myself or I was around too many vanilla people who wouldn't understand. 

But what I'm always thankful for? Sadists

You darlings are so often misunderstood or not nearly as appreciated as you should be. 

So I'm just gunna do that.

I've been with a handful of sadists, talked to tons off and on for years, and in all that time, I've learned one thing, you guys care the most at times and aren't afraid to get your hands dirty. 

You're people of action, deep thoughts and even deeper feelings

I know a lot of people write you off as angry or violent or don't see the logic, romance or beauty in sadism

But I do, and probably always will at this rate

Am I utterly bias because several saved my life before? Absolutely. But it still counts. 

You guys are more likely to go where others are too afraid to go or put in the work others are too lazy or tired for

Male sadists, female sadists, non binary, etc, any I've met, they all feel like a familiar home, I can just hear that little smart ass tone in your voice and know I'm standing next to someone who will fight every pantheon if anyone so much as touched a hair on my head. 

You guys are always extremely protective and I think that's one of my most favorite things about you. 

As for your ways of protecting others, hey, I'm not ever judging that, anyone who picks a fight with you or what you love and protect kinda has it coming lmao. 

But I still admire you guys and the sadist community at large.

I know I'm not the only masochist who feels this way, tons of us do, I've definitely met several who feel the same way I do or similar. 

You guys genuinely are more loved and admired than I think you even know. 

That's all I wanted to say. 

Keep lurking, keep watch, keep being your amazing lil selves ?
