What IS that in the Cat's Dish? -Postcard Friendship Friday #321


Due to the busy state of my life right now, I'm re-posting this funny postcard about cats.

I bought this postcard many years ago. It is a reproduction of an antique postcard, printed on 100% recycled paper, in the USA by the Evergreen Press in Walnut Creek, California.

I adore the rich colors, and the soft texture of fur and rug. The detail on the cat dish is beautiful. But yesterday, as I slipped my collection of postcards and cards into binders for safekeeping, I happened to look a little closer.

I did a double take. I suddenly wasn't sure if the one cat was exactly pleased with the other one.

And I have a question. What on earth IS that in the cat dish??? Anyone have any ideas?  It looks like a bug to me....Have a lovely weekend dear friends, and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

He certainly DOES look grouchy! It looks to me like a cricket! Maybe he is mad that he has a lousy bug in his dish instead of a big hunk of birthday cake!

I have an aunt who lives in Walnut Creek, Ca! Happy PFF my dear Betrh!

I think it's like a bee.

Happy PFF.

That's a wicked lookin' tail on that cat... perhaps he's not pleased with the cricket/cockroach/mystery-bug in his pretty dish?!
Hope all's going well in your magical world, Beth...

grasshopper? :D happy PFF!

Clytie said...

I think it's a cockroach who ate all their catfood. And they are definitely NOT happy about it!

Cat: Waiter, what is this cricket doing in my milk!

Waiter: The back stroke, I think.

Cute card and happy PFF!

I can't tell if they are unhappy with each other, or if it's because of that disgusting bug in their dish!

Excellent question. It's got to be a bug, but I know my cat wouldn't care! Happy PFF from a Newbie :-)

Margo said...

I love the detail in this card! I'd recognize that critter anywhere. It's what we call here in SC, a Palmetto Bug. Scary things. Happy PFF, Beth!

I'm with Clytie, definetly a cockroach eeewww. The brown cat is a girl she looks like she's gonna be sick and the red cat is a male cause he's psst. Isn't it a blast to make up your own stories from a painting or photo. Thanks, you made my PFF, hope yours is fantastic too.

I think its a bug in the dish...probably why they aren't very happy! It's a great card...I love cats!

Sometimes my cats look like that at each other. Both of them love to try to catch bugs, but maybe that one is a little large. I thought maybe it was a spider.

Sheila said...

A beetle! Apart from that, a beautiful card. :) :)

One cat looks pretty sure, but the other looks like he or she just might not be so certain about where this is leading.

This is so funny, Beth! Can you imagine sending someone a Birthday greeting containing mystery-bug-cat-food? The kitties, however, are beautiful, aren't they?

YIKES! I think you are right there is a bug in the dish....It sure is fun collecting and viewing postcards over and over. Thanks for keeping your weekly posts up!
