A subspace of the mind created to deal with trauma. Going into kittenspace is an escape from trauma. In kittenspace, a person takes on the
personality of a kitten and no longer has complicated thoughts. Many kittens are subs in a
dom/sub
relationship. Kittens should be treated with love and affection.
Note: a person can't go into kittenspace unless they feel safe. It is also something you have to coax them into gradually.
Getting into kittenspace is not like a on/off switch. In kittenspace, the person can't access traumatic memories and wants lots of love and comfort.
Kittens can be found sleeping, eating, disobeying their caretaker, being punished, and snuggling.
Most kittens want a caretaker. This is because a good caretaker can help to keep them in kittenspace and make them feel safe. Kittenspace is not the same as being a furry. It is a subspace of the mind in which trauma cannot be accessed. It is also a form of BDSM.
dom: "kitten, come here. I need to tell you something."
sub: "yes daddy?"
dom: "
I love you. Now come here and sit on daddy's lap so I can read you a story."
sub: *climbs onto daddy's lap and snuggles in*
Next day:
friend: "where were you and your sub
yesterday?"
sub: "I was telling him stories in kittenspace. He fell asleep in my lap! I won't let my
precious baby go through any trauma ever again!"
