It's purrfectly nyatural kid behavior XD (But actually, the bigger challenge is convincing the furrier kids that it's not kosher to lick yourself in public...)

We were instantly riveted. It's hard to explain this if you haven't experienced it yourself; humans are opportunistic, omnivorous scavengers who learned hunting in a social context æons later, but as a catgirl part of you is wired like a critter that's been an obligate carnivore and ambush predator since time immemorial. The best analogy I've got is when you walk past a restaurant and catch a whiff of grilling meat or frying onions, and even if you've just eaten your mouth starts watering – but that doesn't convey how primal the instinct is. When you're a cat and you see a bird, you just know.

OH SHIT IT'S THE FUZZ* * (dammit)
It was on Thursday afternoon that I answered the door to find a uniformed police officer standing there. For a moment I had that oh shit did I do something wrong!? reaction, down in the pit of my stomach; then I remembered that this was my neighbor and her kid.

The women of the precinct have probably been waiting for just such an opportunity =^_^=
"Mya, what's up?" I said, looking Frank over. The municipal cops went for practicality more than sharp dress, but it was definitely a woman's uniform. Several women's uniforms, actually, as I could pick up hints of other scents on her; hand-me-downs, I guessed. "It's nyat about updating my license, is it?"

Sometimes they just present themselves to me XD
"Tell mya about it," I sighed, thinking back to the queue on the DMV website; public services were a bit strained lately. "Be lucky to get an nyappointment before I hit menopause."°

If you can't trust one of the parties directly involved in the conflict, who *can* you trust!?
"Gilligan's an nyanimal, honey," Frank chided. "You kniaow better. Anyaway, it's…gonnya take a while for him to myallow out, prrrobably." Then, to me: "So, mya, if it's nyat too much trouble…?"

There is definitely Stuff Going On here.
I think the Register popularized that one, way back when; it's stuck with me ever since ;)
He fumbled in his pocket and produced his fondleslab, closing in to begin the gadget-display ritual that'd consume the next half-hour if I let him. I breathed a sigh of relief – yes, please, remind me of all the regular reasons I feel prickly and irritable around you – then felt novelly awkward again when I succeeded in picking out his personal scent and had to process my reaction to that.

Look on the bright side, Kit! Apparently having your species and sex scrambled hasn't changed your relationship with the neighbor you feel prickly and awkward around...*almost* at all...!
"Wild, bro." He stepped towards me; I inched back, trying to ignore my brain's efforts to discern his scent from the one he'd doused himself in. "Got one of the seniors in my office, too; out sick for a couple weeks, and came back in total furry mode." He shrugged and shook his head. "Seems like he's takin' it well, though – never woulda guessed…!"
