Kitten Catastrophe is a Wattpad book by Your Pet Cactus, who also wrote Waking Up Somewhere Else. The story follows a guy named Jared, who's been lonely his whole life. One night, he gains a companion in the form of a kitten, but there's more to it than meets the eye. It's currently ongoing.
Tropes found in the story:
- Crazy Jealous Guy: Strangely enough, Benjamin seems to be this over Jared despite knowing him for a day as evident in the third chapter.
- Cute Kitten: The plot is kicked off by Jared finding one of these in an alleyway. Turns out it's a cat that can transform into a human and vice versa.
- Friendless Background: Jared is described as having been alone his whole life, though he seems to at least know Jan.
- Holding Hands: Jan does this with Jared in the third chapter, much to his surprise and embarrassment.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Jared acts grumpy around people but he's very caring towards the kitten.
- Kindhearted Cat Lover: Jared is actually a Jerk with a Heart of Gold but he's pretty much a Nice Guy around the kitten.
- Nice Girl: Jan is very kind towards Jared despite his sour attitude, and even seems to harbor a crush on him.
- Ship Tease: Jared has these moments with both Jan and Benjamin as a human.
- Talking Animal: Benjamin can talk in cat form, he just avoids to do it for obvious reasons.
- Wham Episode: Chapter 2 reveals that the cat is able to transform into a human and vice versa.
- Wham Line:

- Right at the end of chapter three:Benjamin: Oh yeah...Well, I'm his boyfriend, so I advise you to stop holding his hand...
- In the second chapter:
