We had some big adventures this weekend. Cupcake’s coffee shop visit was pretty eventful.
First of all, we discovered that getting a smaller serving of whipped cream in Cupcake’s puppaccino means she ends up much messier than normal. Yes, that’s whipped cream around her eye.
With a smaller serving, she has to push her face further into the cup, and that can get messy in a hurry!
We carry cat-safe wipes in her go bag, so we were able to make sure she was cleaned up before the sticky stuff could start to dry in her fur.
The real excitement started when a brave squirrel wandered into the seating area at the coffee shop. Cupcake wanted a closer look, so we went out to the patio to see.
The squirrel tried hanging out on the far side of the planter, but Cupcake was onto that trick.
There was a moment when she lost track of the squirrel when he went vertical and leaped up into her favorite planter.
Cupcake wasn’t giving up. She leaped up onto the planter, too, and climbed the little palm tree growing there in pursuit.
She was only inches from the squirrel, but on the wrong side of the tree.
That squirrel has lived the good life there near the coffee shop for a long time, and knew how to stay safe. When she couldn’t see him, he ran back down the tree and took off. Cupcake leaped down, too, but she had lost track of her little friend.
Cupcake: Where did he go? I just wanted to be his friend!
As long as she was up on the edge of the planter, it seemed like a good time to hang out there and take a bath. Cupcake decided it was time to make sure the last traces of that whipped cream were gone from the fur around her eye and her whiskers.
Wow, what a cool adventure! I’ve never gotten to see a squirrel up that close while I’ve been outside!
Love that picture of the squirrel on one side and Cupcake on the other side. You almost made friends with that squirrel, Cupcake. Glad you enjoyed the whipped cream. Have a good day.
Wow, Cupcake sure got close to that squirrel. How rude of him not to want to be friends with her.
Cupcake..you are grown into such a big girl now! Mr. Newton and Miss Ashton will be amazed when they realize.
just tell him next time you will share the whipped cream 🙂 that was quite the adventure
What fun ! That was an adventure full of action ! Purrs
I’m sure that squirrel was just showing you awesome places to climb and hang out not realizing Cupcake already knew that.
Maybe you’ll have better luck next time, Cupcake!
Good try Cupcake, that squirrel was kind of snooty to not want to play with you.
What a close encounter! Too bad the squirrel didn’t want to be friends.
Oh my stars, you are just the cutest kitty, Cupcake! Maybe it’s because you look remarkably like a mini-version of our Angel, but it’s I’m sure you being you is the cutest thing of all!
Whoa! What fun you’re allowed to have. The coffee shop is great. No whisker fatigue when there’s whipped cream in the cup, is there?
What a fun weekend, beautiful Cupcake!…Happy week ahead, sweetie…xoxo…J, Calle, Halle, Sukki, Mommy Cat
WOW! Cupcake, you sure did get awfully close to that squirrel!

What an adventure you have had young cat! What leaps and chases!
Whoa, you got really close! Promise you’ll just play and never hurt a squirrel, okay?
The whipped cream around Cupcake’s eye had me laughing.
Oh…that tree looks like it wouldn’t be very comfortable to climb.
What a great adventure, Cupcake. You got really close to that squirrel.
I love this set of pictures – especially the one with the squirrel on the other side of the tree. Looks like quite an adventure – and fun too. Maybe you’ll catch that squirrel next time, Cupcake 😉
What a fine outing and a terrific series of pictures! I can imagine you photographing while chasing Cupcake, the squirrel, and without loosening your grip on the leash. Good job.
xxoo
What an adventure you had Miss Cupcake! Such a snooty Squirrel!
You are getting more beautiful each day, little Miss Cupcake. !
Going out to public places on a leash is a brave thing to do.
