Pets at home

E is touching cat's back, then hiding his hand when cat turns round to look. Repeatedly. If you time this correctly while he's washing himself, cat will turn round with his tongue hanging out, which is quite funny (for us).

Me: Is he annoying you Noodle? Ah don't worry, he annoys me too sometimes.

E: (Looks affronted)

Me: Don't give me that look- you try to annoy me on some of those occasions.

E: I know I do- but that's no reason to tell the cat is it?

Generosity

Madi: I've given Noodle one of MY biscuits today instead of his normal ones.

Me (still in bed with eyes closed): Um... that's nice...

Later I find this custard cream crumbled up in his bowl, minus the yellow bit she's nibbled off prior to donation.
