Hydrangea

**Hydrangea** is a seal and white cat with blue eyes.

**Hydrangea** was born as an kittypet to Opalescence and Tahiti alongside her sibling Lotus.

## Appearance

Hydrangea is a black colorpoint and white she-cat with blue eyes. Her fur is dense and well-groomed, free of any knots or untamed hairs. It is soft to the touch and never dirtied. Her round eyes are a vibrant ice-blue. Her pelt is gradual hue shifts of light cream to caramel. The color extremities meet at her face as a diamond-shaped patch of black, with a white neck and muzzle. Her sharp ears and small paws are black as well. She has a long black tail with thick fur brushing along it. Her white whiskers are lightly curled and elegant. She wears a delicate collar made of creamy white pearls. In the center of the collar hangs a teardrop opal pendant, with her name and owner's details engraved on the silver backing. Her owner often adorns her with bows and outfits.

## Personality

No life less elegant could ever suit Hydrangea. Her claws are always clipped and her paws are never dirty. Her life is what house cats dream of, she is the envy of every stray cat’s eye. Pampering isn’t enough, she is loved. She is loved by her parents, she is loved by her owner, she is loved by every cat who has ever spoken to her. All she knows is love, it engulfs her. She thrives off it, the admiration of any stranger or unlikely cat is her ultimate goal, with every day and every action. Each moment she is waiting for an opportunity to prove herself and truly become something. She does not know what this something will be yet, but she knows the moment will come to capture her. Beyond her is a life of luxury, of loving her dearest mate and the idealistic world of perfection. She cannot picture the future any other way. Her peers may see her naive for her uniformed optimism, but she doesn’t believe any alternative exists. She would not settle for less than her dreams.

Why should she? Hydrangea was born into a comfortable situation for herself. Her mother and father were the most spoken-of cats in the town, for better she’d say. Cats that would be bowed down to by those they worked with. Hydra was to be next in-line to this legacy- this power. If, in the situation it was given to her, she would not know what to do with it. Though raised by these powerful cats, she had never gained an independence from them. Every cat would answer to them, she never had a need to ask a question. Hydrangea has been free of trouble since her birth. She’d be lost without them. She loves her mother, Opalescence, very dearly, having shared a home with her since birth. Her siblings were sold off many moons ago to houses far and near, Hydrangea had little interest in any flimsy connections with them. Pick of the litter, her life had been filled with warm food and cozy beds since. Her father lived a different life from it all, one she craved but never grasped. Her father, Tahiti, was an escape from the riches and the closest she would get to a view of the raw world. Though the two shared a special bond, Hydrangea would always be true to her kittypet life. Her parents shared their power of cats and Hydrangea looked on in awe. The way cats would give up their livelihoods, their possessions, their love to them? It was mesmerizing. Hydrangea would spend a lifetime chasing that same power, but would never concern herself with the blood and guts that created it.

Her words are sweet and birds sing every time she leaves the comfort of her home. Her presence is a blessing to any cat who has the privilege of calling her company. She is stunning- she is perfect and she has an awful habit of assuming consequences aren’t applicable to her. She rules the world, no matter what. Pushing and shoving are not above her. Whatever Hydra wants, Hydra gets. Hydrangea is comfortable, there’s no other life for her outside of her paradise. Adoration is instinctive to her, something that is given- not chased after. Her misguided dreams and naive endeavors are the best of pursuits she can offer. An inflated ego and inflated importance of the opinions of her peers spell for her what can only create disaster. She willingly listens to any voice that will guide her, desperate to grasp the ruleless world that surrounds her. With guidance, Hydrangea’s charisma and status would create the foundation for a star. She’s already a star in her micro-universe, why not go beyond?
