Mimi wants cheese
Any time anyone goes near the kitchen, Mimi reminds them that she loves cheese. This week's entry for Friday Ark and Carnival of the Cats
As someone whose first acquaintance with cats was at dairy farms, I am somewhat disturbed to find that none of the local cats like milk, or anything made from milk.
It does mean that my muenster and crackers go unmolested.
That's odd they don't like dairy products. We don't give the furry foursome milk very often, in fact seem to take it or leave it but they all love cheese
I thought only mice liked cheese!
ReplyDeleteAnd Mimi too, LB!
ReplyDeleteWell, give her some, Jams. :)
ReplyDeleteBeing what she had seconds later James!
ReplyDeleteMy dog before last did too. But sadly he had to forgo it when he got kidney disease in the last years of his life. Too much protein!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I would argue with her! Quick, feed her...
ReplyDeleteShe looks very determined!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to ehar that jmb. Ellee. Cherie, she got her cheese very soon after!
ReplyDeleteOuch! She sounds shrill!! What a neat photo!
ReplyDeleteHahaha ! she looks like my Lisa ! but Lisa ALWAYS looks like that for anything eatable !
ReplyDeleteAndree she sure has a set of lungs on her but it's more a squawk than a meow!
ReplyDeleteMimi is very much like that for eatables too Gattina!
Mimi looks like a cat who knows how to get what she wants!
ReplyDeleteJams

ReplyDeleteMimi obviously knows how to get her demands met.

She should try out to bump Chester Cheetah and become the new face of Cheetos. All the cheesy cheese cheesiness she can eat!
ReplyDeleteI bet she would squawk for those too. Sadly we don't have chseter here. Mimi Cheeto sounds fine to em though!
ReplyDeleteWe never met a cat that liked cheese before. That sure is different!
ReplyDeleteShe loves it!
