Lily’s lament

Poor little Lily today is her 10th birthday and I think she is both confused and overwhelmed by it all.

I got up before Lily this morning and prepared my birthday surprise for her that being a pig’s ear treat on top of her pinch of dry food that she normally has for breakfast. Lily heard me prepare this and although it was only 5 00am she insisted on getting up. She was shocked to find her normal bowl of dry food with the pig’s ear on top. I sang Happy Birthday to her and she was literally crying 😢 the whole time and confused by her breakfast  she would look at her food bowl then look at me and cry some more. Eventually after two hours of that I hand fed her her dry food and then threw the pig’s ear for her to chase.  I kept singing happy birthday and she continued to cry. I told her that if she ate that pig’s ear treat that she could have another.

She ate the pig’s ear but cries when I say it is her birthday 🎂. Oh well such is life with a furbaby perpetual toddler.
