Ayla decided it would be a good idea to serve herself lunch today. I had started soaking the veggie flakes portion of her lunch and was waiting until closer to noon to add in the tripe part of the meal. So I walked out of the kitchen to get something from another room and heard that unmistakable sound of claws on the counter and her eating up something. I assumed at the time that she had only dropped the fork from her metal bowl because that was pretty much all I heard hit the floor. But she had indeed knocked the bowl down and of course splattered the cabinets and the floor with food along the way.

I can say I was quite thankful that I had not mixed the tripe in there yet as the kitchen would have smelled a lot worse and I likely would have needed to do even more cleaning since the bowl would have had a lot more food in it.

Anyway, instead of her usual beef tripe mixed meal, she only got the veggie part. She didn’t seem too upset about this but perhaps she will remember what she missed out on when she gets the normal meal again tomorrow for lunch.
