This evening, as I was preparing our dinner, I took two glass bowls out of the cupboard and then went to the pantry for a bottle of fry sauce I bought ages ago. When I can back to the kitchen, there was Noel, meowing for canned food.
At first I thought she was doing it for two reasons:
1. because she does it every day when we are in the kitchen
2. because I took two bowls out from the cupboard we keep their special canned food bowls.
Then the penny dropped -- I had really played a dirty trick on her without even knowing it. Not only had I got those bowls out, I also went into the pantry -- exactly the routine I do when we feed the girls canned food twice a week. Man, she was just meowing up a storm and looking so pitiful; "Where's the canned food? I am starving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Poor Noel -- and Sadie, who she suckered into believing there was canned food coming. Pita was smart, she stayed in her perch -- she's much more cautious than the rest of them and doesn't like to look stupid.
