Cats ~ How Litttle We Know Them

Tuxedo cat calls a meeting
We all know what to expect when living with a cat, don't we???

Maybe we missed a few details in our assumptions! Allow me to clarify...

Don't they just take "what's mine is yours" to the absolute LIMIT!!!

Imagine, being 'told off' by your cat! What is the world coming to?

And what does happen when you discover there is no room for YOU!?

Well, this is what happens... you also discover they are the most loving, darling, crazy animals ever that have personalities and characters of their own and just watching their ridiculous antics makes you calmer and you live longer.

You will be assimilated. 

Resistance is futile.

The pudding is on top of the cake & makes it really moist


Its not at all overly sweet because of the Cocoa instead of Chocolate which makes it more rich, rich enough to satisfy with a small piece to fill you without that sense of being jipped out of your dessert. Since I just started overhauling our eating habits and food choices, this fits right in.


Hope you all enjoy this as much as we did. Please let me know what you thought of it by leaving a comment.
