We have 3 cats which means we’ve adopted a similar attitude to certain things, mainly the carpet as they all have a percent for clawing fuck out of it.
It does make the place seem a bit ‘seedy’ but I’m not spending bags to recarpet the place every 3 years. Once they’ve been called to Bast’s fields and are all slaughtering field mice in kitty heaven I’ll recarpet.
As for hot cross buns? I’ve given up on finding a decent one. All supermarket versions I try are vapid tenuous things that either burn too easily, have zero flavour or are filled with weird shit.
