Dear Diary –
It's a good thing my parents like Chat Noir – or at least the idea of him – because he seems to love our bakery a little too much. My parents made the "mistake" a long time ago of feeding the stray kitten and now he comes back ALL THE TIME. At first I worried he either knew my secret identity or maybe suspected it, but really, he is just a lovesick Kitty that needs a little nurturing and attention. My parents are the perfect audience, and they seriously, seriously LOVE him. But while they're working in the bakery, who do you think has to watch over Cat-Boy? Seriously, it's almost like when you're forced to play with your little cousin…. Yeah, sure, it might actually be fun, but you don't want them to know that or they'll follow you around during every family function! At least Chat isn't so bad. Really! Usually he just lays around the couch or helps me with my homework (he is a big reason I am not failing physics!) Today, though, when he crashed in a sunny spot on the couch, it made me think of a funny meme Alya had sent me: a picture of a black cat covered in fish crackers. The tagline had read: Just how many Goldfish can I put on my cat until he wakes up? It was so funny! And when I saw Chat Noir sleeping there, I couldn't help myself. Since we were out of crackers, I used croissants. Then I took a picture. And now it's a trending meme on the Ladyblog. And maybe Twitter. And Facebook. …And maybe even on a local news channel. (And maybe already a viral video with a theme song…oops!)
Fun fact: You can cover Chat Noir in 57 croissants before he wakes up…and he only woke up because I literally tried to shove the last one in his mouth without him knowing.
