Default I can take a hint

Yesterday I was in the local supermarket buying important stuff (cat
food) and not so important stuff (our food) and I noticed they were
selling "Dreamies" cat treats-heard they were supposed to be good and
not expensive so I just dropped a pouch in the basket. Got home,
unpacked the shopping then had to run because I was going to a funeral
so I left the unopened pouch on the side in the kitchen....
Got back from funeral and was kicking my shoes off when Sarsi came in
holding the unopened pack of "Dreamies" in her mouth and dropped it at
my feet and looked at me as if to say "If I only had opposable thumbs
I'd have opened these hours ago-get on with it!"


They've been on the same offer in our supermarket for a while too.
Each of our cats seems to prefer a different flavour, except for
Molly who doesn't care, they're ALL wonderful. We currently get
woken up every morning about 6am by a very heavy cat stomping on
our legs, closely followed by a noise that would have been a sound
effect in "The Exorcist" if it had had a demonically possessed cat
in it, and then something furry thumping me on the nose. If I expect
to get back to sleep, the Dreamies had better be forthcoming.

Molly is basically Simon's Cat without the politeness.
