Just walked into the study to find my cat helping herself to my cup of black tea

I caught my ginger female cat eating the yoghurt put out for my B and B guests breakfast! Needless to say, the guests were not told about this!

I have the exact same shot of a very similar cat  :love: :cat:.  In his case it was cooking oil. ::)

My first cat used to lap coffee out of people's mugs if they put them down on the floor. ::)

Ha aha, what we don't see we don't know or worry about....My youngest daughter used to come every day after work to my house after our divorce as I lived near her work etc, she let herself in and made some toast then went to sleep, she had left before I came back from Uni as it took ages to get home on the train, I got in and saw a lemon bon bon on the kitchen worktop so I popped it in my mouth and thought it was a little treat from my daughter, we do silly things like that, I put the kettle on and reached for the toast and the marge only to notice the nearly new pack was have way down but very smooth....I buttered my toast and my daughter popped back and said " I took a sweet of the cat as it was sucking it" (bon bon) and the dog got the marge so I put it back in the fridge!! :innocent:   I was fine

I came in from feeding the animals this morning to find my cat sat by his food bowl waiting for breakfast while surrounded by fragments of the black bag from the bin which he had obviously just finished shredding... :rant:

My cat is really strange that way... I can't tempt her with any human food. She won't touch cheese, cream, yoghurt, ice cream - it's even difficult to get her to eat ham or fish (tinned salmon, for example). Normally, that's great; I can leave out anything and know it's safe. But a little while ago she was poorly and hardly eating anything for a couple of days; I bought all sorts of things to tempt her, but it was simply impossible. The neighbours' cats had a field day...  ::)

I have ALWAYS told stories, to the extent I got an award while escorting over 15's on a sun sport holiday and when I was in my last job, we always had a Meeting once a month, I went and sat down and then the secretary came as some one had come to see me ( a Johnny Depp Look alike but 5ft tall)  I went and sorted out his forms and then went back into the room..  I must add the rest of my small team were  A Scottish hippy boss, a tough N Irish man, a Welsh man who was well over 6ft with a broken nose and had spent 40 years as a prison officer and me...of course.....I sat down and said "sorry, it was my Johnny Depp Look alike wanting funding for his idea of becoming a male escort while he attends a Uni course in Aronaughtical electronics. " at that point the team broke down laughing :roflanim: :roflanim:  they had said while I was out the room how they looked forward to my little stories......

My husband arranged for our best friends to come to dinner one Friday evening  Tidied everything up after work, got dogs exercised, fed and put out to kennels, fed cat, laid out the starter on the dining room table, closed teh door and went to get dressed for the evening.  Sandy checked the table settings, then went to let Alan and Margaret in.  We enjoyed a little chat over a couple of drinks then headed for the dining room - to find Sophie finishing off the prawns in the fourth dish! 

As all good friends would we had a good laugh, skipped the left over salad and went straight onto the entree which was safe in the oven.

Bad cat!  :roflanim:
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

When we had our Irish Wolfhound absolutely nothing was safe.  Wolfies can stretch out their necks an amazing distance across a worktop, then their tongues flick across the last 10" or so.  You can tell they've done it as there's a trail of slobber left behind.
 
Our carefully trained cat ( ::) ) doesn't jump onto work surfaces - or at least not until we're out of the room when she pops straight up and looks SO innocent if we catch her, but she only goes for stuff any cat would like  :cat:
