(Y/N)'s P.O.V:
You walked into your house, shrugging off your coat and sighing in relief. You had just gotten back from work and it was a long day. You hung your coat on the coat rack and kicked off your shoes, placing them by the door. As you turned around, you were greeted by one of your five cats, Lance. Lance was a Burmese cat with tan skin and hints of brown around his head/ears, paws, tail and back.
"Meow~" Lance purred as he rubbed up against your leg. You smiled down at him and squatted down to pet his head, much to Lance's pleasure, before walking into the kitchen, Lance following right behind you. When you reached the kitchen, you found your chubby American Bobtail, Hunk, sitting on the counter, licking his paw and rubbing his forehead with it, attempting to clean himself. Hunk's ear twitched before he turned to you, letting out a happy "meow" and walked to the edge of the counter for you to pet him. You did and placed a soft kiss on his head.
You loved your cats. They were always keeping you company. Lance and Hunk being the most affectionate. Shiro, your black Nebelung, the oldest of the bunch, gracefully walked in, sitting next to your leg, waiting for you to pet him. You smiled down at him, sitting on your kitchen floor and rubbing Shiro behind his ears, earning a happy purr from the leader. Lance hopped into your lap, as usual, demanding the most attention from you, as Hunk jumped off the counter and joined you three on the floor. You soon began to wonder where your other two felines were...
"Where are Pidge and Keith?" You questioned out loud, earning a few meows. You're not really sure what you were expecting, they're cats. Shiro pawed at you gently, making you snap out of your thoughts and look at him. Shiro looked up and you followed his gaze, looking at the top of the fridge.
There he was, Keith, your moody Bombay cat, sleeping peacefully on top of your fridge. You sighed, Keith always loved to find the highest places to sleep, away from everyone else. You gently pushed Lance off your lap, followed by an annoyed meow from him, and stood up, walking towards your fridge.
"Tsk tsk tsk, hey Keith~" You called, causing the black cat to open his eyes, looking down at you. He seemed uninterested. Typical Keith. You stood on your tippy toes and plucked him from his spot on top of the fridge, earning a surprised meow from Keith. You cradled him in your arms as he stretched his back out on you. He seemed to be annoyed that you woke him up from his cat nap but you could feel him softly purring against your chest. Now, where was your little Orange Tabby, Pidge?
You walked around the house looking for the fifth cat, still holding Keith in your arms (you're sure if cats could glare, Lance would be glaring a hole right through the black cat), as Shiro and Hunk followed right next to you. Suddenly, you spotted an orange tail swinging back and forth. You followed the tail and it led to a box, where you saw two green eyes staring at you. Pidge was always a more reserved cat, like Keith, and liked to hide in dark places like underneath the couch or, in this case, inside a cardboard box. Placing Keith down next to Hunk, you smiled and walked towards the box, opening the lids, finding your fifth cat.
"Hey Girl~" You cooed, taking the orange cat out of the box and petting her head, causing her to purr. After finally finding all of your cats, you walked upstairs to your room with Pidge in your arms, the other cats slowly making their way to your room. It was in that moment you realized how tired you really were. You felt as if you were about to collapse from exhaustion. Opening the door to your room, placing Pidge down on the floor. Not even bothering to change into your PJ's, you collapsed face first into your bed. As you were about to drift into sweet slumber, you felt a paw on your back...and then another...and soon you felt four paws on your back. Confused, you turned your head to find Lance standing on your back, casually walking in circles before settling down into a ball on your back. Soon, you felt a heavier weight land on your leg...Hunk had settled onto your legs, stretching out to lay on both. One by one, all five of your cats made their way to cuddle with you. Pidge was lying on your pillow, curled up around your head. Keith was nuzzled into one side of your neck and Shiro was nuzzled into the other.
You sighed happily, drifting off into a well deserved slumber~
