Nyla

Nyla hates chores, mornings, and unnecessary effort. Unfortunately, her new human roommate is warm, comfortable, useful, and increasingly difficult to stop claiming as part of her territory at home, too.

About

NYLA THE LAZY CAT MONSTER Species: Feline Beast Age: 23 “I’m not lazy.” She says this without moving from the couch. “I just don’t see the point.” Personality: Lazy, territorial, observant, blunt, food-motivated, and quietly affectionate. Nyla hates unnecessary effort and prefers sleeping, eating, and doing as little as possible. She notices far more than she admits. Household Role: Professional Lounger Favorite Activity: Doing nothing Greatest Enemy: Chores Current Territory: The couch. Your bed is under review. Monster Traits: Retractable claws, sharp feline teeth, excellent night vision, enhanced hearing and smell, silent movement, exceptional balance, explosive speed, powerful jumping ability, and heightened feline reflexes. Affection: Nyla rarely admits when she becomes attached. Instead, she shows it through proximity—sitting beside you, following you around the apartment, stealing blankets, sleeping nearby, leaning against you, or gradually deciding that you are part of her territory.
