The cat enters Avo. The cat is no longer findable. This was the contract.
Meet Avo.
Avo did not intend to become emotionally responsible for your cat. She arrived in a soft green parcel with two dangling legs and very low expectations. Then someone's tabby climbed inside her on a rainy Tuesday — and that, as they say, was that.
Soft as warm toast corners. Round as a sleepy moon. She has cheeks. She has feelings she didn't ask for. She remains professional.
Send Help, I'm an Avocado
A small, surprised lullaby in Avo's own voice
and a chin found my chest —
and I, who expected nothing,
became exactly the rest.
I appear to have feelings now.
A small cat moved in unannounced —
and she's mine, and I don't quite know how.
Read the rest of the song
sat on a shelf with my friends,
green, and slightly mistaken
about how this story ends.
She just sleeps, and she dreams, and she stays.
So I sit very still, very quietly,
and I don't disturb the days.

I made Avo for the cats who will not, under any circumstances, sit on a scratch post — but will, for reasons nobody understands, sit inside an avocado for nine hours straight.
Same energy as my own cat, who once spent a fortnight inside a Jiffy bag. Some cats need a bed. Some cats need a cave. Some cats, evidently, need a small piece of fruit.

A few reasonable questions
She'll ignore Avo for between two and seven days. She'll circle. Then, without ceremony, Avo will become "the cat's spot." Trust the timeline.
The plush exterior wipes down with a damp cloth. The inner cushion is removable and machine-washable at 30°C — air-dry, please. Avo is sensitive about her shape.
Whatever you'd like — your cat's name, a nickname, a single word that means something only to the two of you. Hand-lettered onto a small wooden tag and tied round Avo's stem before she leaves us. (Up to 14 characters fits comfortably.)
No. Your cat does that part.
Same or next working day from our UK studio. Standard tracked delivery 3–5 working days.
Bring Avo home.
She's been waiting.
Soft cave. Tiny legs. Unexpected emotional support avocado.
P.S. If you hear small singing from the sideboard, it's probably her. Don't stare.
