Kamoku Hero

Your questions, answered by a cat who prefers a soft blanket, a quiet room, and zero drama.

Dear Kamoku,
My roommate always wants to talk the second I walk in the door. I’m exhausted. How do I set boundaries without being rude?
Wants Quiet, Not Conflict

Dear Quiet,
Ah, the ambush greeting. I simply walk away and blink slowly from a safe distance. Try silence, followed by a warm beverage and a stare that says, “Now is not the time.” Works every time.

Dear Kamoku,
I feel pressure to be super social at work, but I’m more of an introvert. Any tips for surviving open office life?
Cubicle Catastrophe

Dear Cubicle,
Stake out a corner. Guard it like a cardboard box. Participate on your terms—pop up for a few wand-toy moments (aka meetings), then retreat. It’s not antisocial. It’s strategic.

Dear Kamoku,
I overcommit to everything. I’m tired, cranky, and I haven’t had a weekend to myself in months.
Burnt Out in Boots

Dear Burnt,
Cancel three things. Right now. Say you’re “recharging your paw batteries.” Then stretch out in a sunbeam, mentally and physically. If it doesn’t bring peace or snacks, it can wait.

Bonus Tip from Kamoku:
Need a soft presence in your space, not a whirlwind of neediness? I qualify for the Foster First program. Try me out! No pressure, no pushiness, just purrs (eventually).
