Right So Mum’s got her knickers in a twist again, and guess what?
That’s not my fault
I
was outside doing important, professional cat things
when I spotted a frog
Not just any frog
This thing looked like it’d just come back from leg day
Biceps on its knees
Built like a garden gnome that drinks protein shakes
I thought, Mum is going to LOVE this unit
So I caught it
Slippery little bodybuilder tried to wriggle free, but I clamped down sprinted inside with my prize, and went to find mum
She’s in the bath
Candles, Bubbles, Trying to live her best life.
Perfect time for a gift drop
I pop the frog in the tub
She SCREAMS
Like I’d dropped a toaster in there
I panic, obviously
Jump sky high and My tail hits a candle
Boom
I’m suddenly a feline firework
Tail’s on fire
Great
So what do I do?
I launch myself into the toilet
Headfirst
Because I’m a genius under pressure
Mum, meanwhile, leaps out of the bath like a panicked walrus and Slips
Faceplants onto the bathroom floor, right into a little nugget of poop I’d left when I got scared by her screaming
It happens don’t judge!
And the frog?
That little legend jumps onto her head like he’s claiming Everest
She’s flailing, she’s shrieking, “GET IT OFF GET IT OFF!”
while wearing my poo and a frog crown
And me?
I’m sitting there
Soaking wet
Smelling like toilet water and betrayal
Thinking, This is the thanks I get, For bringing her a gift?
For enriching her life with adventure and protein powered wildlife?
Honestly
Next time, she’s getting a dead leaf and a dirty look
Ungrateful little drama walnut
Hahaha
