St. Catrick’s Day Cupcake

We told you last year about the St. Catrick’s Day traditional licking of the icing. It’s time to celebrate again!

Ashton: Whoa, you’re starting without me?

Newton and PIerre get a head start on the licking of the icingNewton: Well you didn’t expect us to wait, did you? If we wanted for you, we would never get a turn.

Ashton: You would so! Maybe.

Ashton moves in on cupcakeAshton: But now it’s my turn!

Ashton wrinkles her nose as she eats cupcake icingAshton: Hey, it dumped over.

Newton: And your teeth wouldn’t have anything to do with that?

Pierre: Use your tongue for the icing, not your teeth, Ash. We’ve been over this before.

The cupcake is dumped over from all of the attentionNewton: Your tongue, like this.  * SLURP *

Ashton: Easy with the cooties there, Newt!

Three cats and one cupcake, what could go wrong?Newton: You’re hardly one to tell anycat to go easy. That isn’t exactly a dainty, ladycatlike bite you’re taking.

Ashton: Who said anything about being ladylike? I have to get my share while I can.

Not a ladylike nibble at allAshton: If I can just get it out of this paper stuff… there it goes. 

Ashton removes cupcake from linerAshton: Now I can really get my teeth into it! 

Ashton takes big bites of cupcakeAshton: Where’d it all go? Isn’t there any more? 

Ashton eyes the crumbsAshton: If you’ll excuse me, I need a nap now.


Ashton eats a grain-free, low-calorie diet, and this is an unusual treat because of the holiday. She was supposed to share it with Newton and Pierre, not eat the whole cupcake herself. We do not recommend feeding your cat cupcakes.

    That is totally what Binga would do, Ashton! My human would never feed us cupcakes… mainly because she thinks ANY cupcake she is not eating herself is going to waste! Yep, she’s THAT selfish when it comes to cupcakes.
