I need to know the story as to naming your cat Microwave

Purrs like one, I bet

Happy birthday, Microwave.

Not a sentence I ever expected to say, but I'm glad I have.

[–] jqx@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Hehe Microwave thanks you!

Not sure what's funnier, the wetfood cake, the fish shaped catfood as candle, or the name 🤣

Happy birthday microwave!

this post is just peak cat owner.

[–] Captain_Waffles@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Yes, the answer is just yes. Because that's just so cat staff energy.

Hehe it was the perfect day for Microwave! And it was a minnow-shaped minnow! EDIT: minnow not anchovy.

My first thought was "catso redentor?"

Yes may I relay a message for Microwave?

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Just wave 👋, a micro wave.

[–] jqx@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Microwave micro waves back!

That's amazing! What are the individual layers made of?

[–] jqx@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Base to top: freeze dried chicken breast chunks, wet food pate, boiled egg yolk, wet food pate again, puree cat treat, and minnow as the candle!

My god, what a lucky kitty!

I used to make our family dog a "stink cake" for his birthday, which was assembled from dog food, cat food, a small bit of lunch meat, Kraft singles, etc. He really enjoyed those.

Is that candle some lady from the back or a giant penis? I can't tell....

[–] linkinkampf19@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Looks to be a freeze dried fishy. Sardine or Anchovy?

[–] jqx@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Close! It was freeze dried minnow!

Hey, can I put this food into your Microwave?
