Turtle Sundae?

Our humans took a walk in the park this morning and, upon arriving back at home, they walked in the door announcing, "Kitties! Come see what we brought! It's Turtle Sundae!" So Fracas and I raced to the door with this image in our minds: Well, because of what happened next, I've issued a new edict at Artsy Catsy:

"All important announcements shall be made in writing, since visual spelling is essential for clarity."

As you can see, their "Turtle Sundae" oral announcement created a grossly inaccurate image in our minds, because THIS is what we got:

And poor Fracas may never recover from the disillusionment of imagining a Turtle Sundae under his belt and getting THIS instead:

Ha ha ha yes, I agree, those humans need to put any important announcements in writing because that is just cruel. Cruel, I tell you. Honestly, do you want me to phone the rspca because that is cat abuse!

He looks like a big turtle, but he is really small! I do not think he will taste quite as good as the turtle sundae though.

Hey that looks like more fun! We have big old Turtles here, you can't even catch 'em if you try. Yours is just the right size to play with it. Although, i think Scout would prefer the ice cream (she's a Dairy Queen).

Samantha & Mom said...

Yes, word play is not fun. We understand it one way and our Mom's and Dad's mean it another way. Cute little turtle though.

Hm... my human was just getting hungry for the first photo when she saw the second. Personally, not being a big ice cream fan, I quite liked the second!
