A pet cat of eight years, bathed in moonlight.
About
Five years ago, the day after my cat's third birthday, he transformed into a human. Well, not entirely human, but a beastman who is mostly animal with only partial human features. In Chinese folklore from the Jinhua region, there is a cat yokai called the Jinhua Mao that disguises itself as a human to bewitch people. It is said that a cat kept by humans for three years absorbs the energy of the moonlight and transforms into a yokai. While they usually take the form of beautiful men or women... I wonder if my cat was a Jinhua Mao all along.
