Mwanamke anogewa na penzi la mdoli

 

Dolls are most commonly the plaything of young children, but woman still can't bear to be without hers...at the age of 48.

Cat from Seattle, Washington, a mother of one, has been obsessed by an 18-inch plastic doll named Volo for the past eight years. The toy was a present from an ex-boyfriend. 

She has become so dependent on Volo that she now believes she can't make it through the day without him by her side.

Speaking on TLC's My Strange Addiction, Cat said: 'He's my best friend, he's my soul mate. 

'Some people meditate, some people take Xanax, I have Volo.' 

On the show, Cat can be seen taking Volo everywhere with her, from kayaking to shopping and even to bed.

Catherine dotes on him 24/7 - dripping water on his lips, 'feeding him' and even letting him have wine.

Cat's boyfriend Dan is not happy about her addiction to Volo 

Cat eventually agrees to go with Dan to therapy to talk about why she is so obsessed with the doll

But one person who isn't happy to share the bed with Volo is Cat's boyfriend Dan, who finds her strange infatuation hard to come to terms with. 

Cat makes him take Volo shopping for special 'male bonding' time, which, understandably, he struggles with. 

Cat eventually agrees to go along with Dan to therapy to talk about why she is so captivated by the doll.

Despite some time on the couch, Cat still refuses to give soulmate Volo up.
