Ambrosial Delight of Royals Everywhere: Gerber's Hams



Sometimes, when I haven't eaten my breakfast by the time the Human comes home from work, she gets to feeling all sad and guilty and worried that I am going to starve myself. That's when I move in for the kill. I gaze pathetically up into her eyes and meow softly, as though faint from hunger (never mind that I have eaten my crunchies all up). When the gaze and the meow and the guilt and the planets all line up just purrfectly, she cracks open a jar of the Good Stuff for me and pets me and coos whilst I enjoy it. Honestly, I almost feel bad for her sometimes.

As long as you get the good stuff, no feeling bad for her, Spitty. You are just getting your due.

I still don’t get this baby food thing. What brand? Doesn’t some of it contain stuff that cats aren’t allowed to have? Am I missing something? When I don’t eat my breakfast, TW tells me to “suck it up and eat it cos you’re not getting anything else until I get back from shopping.” I’m so deprived. When she goes out, she forgets to come home.

I'm concerned Spitty. You simply shouldn't have to work that hard to get decent meals.

HRM! Hams aren't allowed in our home but TURKEYS and CHICK-HENS are. Does Gerber's supply these delectables?
