I’ve heard they do, but also… my home cat fails to answer to pspspsps.
Also, here’s a vaguely related meme, when I feel you mean a different kind of big cat entirely with a much more fun community.

Anyway, hopefully you’ll enjoy it.
Meme. Photo of what looks like an eldritch cat being with eight tails. It seems to be a black cat and kittens in a time lapsed photo with seven eyes, some in strange places, and an extra nose or so. Caption, when you piss piss piss piss piss into the void, sometimes it piss piss piss piss piss’s back.

It’s the typo demon.
Screenshot from Tumblr, including a medieval painting of a monk writing in a book and a winged demon looking on. From user 1: today I learned... that in the middle ages there was a popular belief in a demon of language, one who collected the words of people women gossiping in church, and the mumbled syllables of priests who weren't saying mass properly. He was also held responsible for scribal errors. Later he haunted printing presses, causing typesetters to make mistakes. Today I learned... there is a typo demon, it has a name, and it is Tutivillus (Titivillus). User 2: Can he leave me alone please User 1: l asked and he said ni. Hey Tedbaldus, you missed a letter: User 3: Now he has taken residence in Autocorrect, which is why it always turns your thoughts into word salad when you try to text.

Friends is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994-2004, following 6 young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, & Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, & personal growth over 10 seasons.

P. S. Quote marks make screen readers sad.
Still photo from the show the good place. Depicts the cast on a blue sofa in the middle of a well-designed street with blue cobblestones. From left to to bottom right, young Asian man from Orlando in a green track jacket standing behind, Arizona trash white woman in a pink sweater sweater seated on the upper edge, a smiling brunette in a blue floral secretary blouse with matching vest and skirt, an old white man in a prince of wales check suit with bow tie and striped blue socks, an African professor in a tan sweater vest with a white button up and navy pants, and a glamorous Indian woman in a low cut, strapless yellow ball gown and metallic accessories.

This poem feels especially poignant.
Let America Be America Again Langston Hughes, 1902 - 1967 Let America be America again. Let it be the dream it used to be. Let it be the pioneer on the plain Seeking a home where he himself is free. (America never was America to me.) Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed-Let it be that great strong land of love Where never kings connive nor tyrants scheme That any man be crushed by one above. (It never was America to me.) O, let my land be a land where Liberty Is crowned with no false patriotic wreath, But opportunity is real, and life is free, Equality is in the air we breathe. (There's never been equality for me, Nor freedom in this "homeland of the free.") Say, who are you that mumbles in the dark? And who are you that draws your veil across the stars? I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart, I am the Negro bearing slavery's scars. I am the red man driven from the land, I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek-And finding only the same old stupid plan Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak. I am the young man, full of strength and hope, Tangled in that ancient endless chain Of profit, power, gain, of grab the land! Of grab the gold! Of grab the ways of satisfying need! Of work the men! Of take the pay! Of owning everything for one's own greed!

I especially don’t recommend 7.
The words, 10 common mistakes people make when jogging. 1. Lying down. This isn't even jogging. It is pretty much just lying down. 2. Rolling. There is no rolling in jogging. Did someone tell you there would be rolling? 3. Falling into a wishing well. Jogging is hard when you're nips-deep in nasty wishes. 4. Carrying two shotguns under your arms to keep your balance. Always go gun less 5. Letting your brain become a little wet carnival of irrational thoughts. 6. Wearing a baggy black tracksuit. What are you, a druid? Just wear shorts. 7. Counting on your sins on one hand. Then two hands. Then shrieking, my sins are more numerous than my hands will permit. Your jog will be ruined. 8. Listening to shrimp jazz on your headphones. Derp derp doobie derp that's shrimp jazz. 9. Taking a rest inside of a giant tumbleweed. You will never escape. 10. Suddenly exploding due to boredom.

My weekend read. 🥰
Book cover for blood marked, book two in the legend born cycle by New York Times selling author Tracy Deon. The main character Brianna Matthews, a beautiful and petite Black teenager holds Excalibur while she’s wearing a leather vest, a cape, and gauntlets. A tall young Whittier man with black hair and gold eyes stands back to back with her while holding a staff. Ether magic in red flows around her and blue flows around him.

Sharing this horror with you because someone else must be haunted as well.
Screenshot from Pinterest of a Walmart ad for cat costumes that look like roaches. The 4 cats are laying on a light peach-colored, striped bed with a beige headboard and pillow. The cats see white and light brown tabbies. The wings match them well and there are fake antennae and wings. The text reads, C adorn 2 pieces cat cockroach costume DIY kit funny pet outfit for Halloween & cosplay dress up, unique design with realistic details for cats free 30-day returns.

That anticipation doesn’t seem broken at all to me. If you’re going through that now, I’m sorry. I’ve had to majority downsize in the past. This phrase inspires me, and I hope it will bring you comfort.
Photo. Words surrounded by various rocks and crystals. Texts reads, I give up freely what is no longer serving me. I release it to create space for what inspires me.

Unless she’s an acquisitions editor or an agent, she only has the authority that you ascribe to her.

Here are two quotes that I enjoy. Maybe they will resonate with you.

A z quotes. Photo. Grayscale ocean and rocks with cloudy sky in the background. Text. Comparison is the thief of joy. Theodore Roosevelt.

This photo cracks me up each time I see it.
Screenshot. Twitter post including photo. User Massimo @ Rain maker 1973 Dispute, a quite imprssive real picture captured by Polish photographer Jacek Stankiewicz, featuring two birds embroiled in what appears to be an animated argument. Caleb @ seth puertoluna The wing on the waist. The pointed wing. The claw popped forward. Total verbal battle stance. The other bird just looking completely flummoxed. The feeking eavesdropping bird.

I could use some air myself.

They had what they needed,
the bird and she—
#WinterBerries upon the tree,

Warmth, water, sustenance—
But more both wanted.
Cheez-its bonding provided.

Two creatures alone for a moment.
Two lives now connected.
Ritual, tradition, patterned.

#vssChristmas
