We had some friends over for lunch – Chinese hot pot.  They brought their two dogs. Pepper was thrilled.

Monster was less thrilled but not going to back down or disappear. He is not that kind of cat.

So he kept an eye on the proceedings and made his opinions very clear.

His point once made, Monster then turned his back and walked away back into the kitchen.

Meanwhile Pepper was flying around the garden.

And the flying was reciprocated too, which is always good.

Monster came inside and said what he had to say about dogs and more dogs.  We all listened and then ignored him.

The hot pot was excellent. I may never eat (or drink) again.
