We probably all feel a bit like a sleepy housecat when we have to get up for work in the morning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This Norwegian woman has taken that feeling to the next level. Nano claims she realised she was a cat when she was 16 years old, and has adopted feline mannerisms since.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The 20-year-old has opened up about her life as a puss, describing how she has a superior sense of hearing and sight which allows her to hunt mice in the dark.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

She made the revelation in a YouTube video, which has been viewed over 100,000 times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Nano claims to possess many feline characteristics including a hatred of water and the ability to communicate simply by meowing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The young woman shows off her cat characteristics by wearing fake ears and an artificial tail. She communicates by meowing.<\/p>\n

“I realised I was a cat when I was 16 when doctors and psychologists found out what was “the thing” with me. Under my birth there was a genetic defect,” she explains in the video.<\/p>\n

As they walked through Oslo’s central station, the presenter asked Nano what she could hear and see that a normal person might not.<\/p>\n

“Suitcases rolling on the ground,” she says, “Keys clinking in pockets. People with ice under their shoes.”<\/p>\n

Then all of a sudden, she lets out a hiss and takes a step back.<\/p>\n

“There is a dog over there,” she explains. “Sometime I hiss when meeting dogs in the street. It’s because of their behaviour and my instinct automatically reacts by hissing.”<\/p>\n

The cat woman wears a pair of pink fluffy paws with which to groom herself, and feels especially like doing so when she is in contact with water.<\/p>\n

When asked if she was born as the wrong species, she said: “Yes, born in the wrong species.”<\/p>\n

Nano prefers to crawl around on her hands and knees, and paws at windows when she wants to go outside.<\/p>\n

She also said, despite their size, she can sleep in the sink and on windowsills.<\/p>\n

“It’s also obvious that I’m a cat when I start purring and meowing,” she explains. “And walking around on four legs and stuff like that.”<\/p>\n

The cat also claims to have night vision – but has never caught a mouse.<\/p>\n

“I can see better in the dark than in daylight. That’s no problem,” she says. “I have been running a lot after animals that can be seen in the shadows.”<\/p>\n

She has a friend called Sven, who has a cat personality.<\/p>\n

They meow at each other in the park.<\/p>\n

“He has something called “personalities” and one of them is a cat,” she says.<\/p>\n

“So you are born as a cat, but he has become one?’ the presenter queries.<\/p>\n

“He is human but has someone in his head that is a cat, and I am born as a cat,” Nano confirms.<\/p>\n

The young woman said her life as a cat was “exhausting” but she doesn’t want to live as a human.<\/p>\n

“My psychologist told me I can grow out of it, but I doubt it,” she concludes. “I think I will be cat all my life.”<\/p>\n
