An Exotic Shorthair Froze With Frosting on Both Paws and Huge Eyes

AI imageexotic shorthaircake frostingkitchen

Huge round amber eyes stare straight ahead from the flat face of a cream Exotic Shorthair, whose front paws are covered in lumps of white frosting. Crumbs of cake sprinkle the dark floor around her, a glass of water and a cloth sit on the counter behind her, and a tiny smear of cream lies on her chin. She looks like a cat who has just realized the cake was not part of the plan.

Exotic Shorthairs are often described as the short-haired cousins of Persians, with the same sweet, flat face and calm personality. They tend to be gentle and quiet, though they enjoy play and attention from their people. Their flat faces mean they can have trouble with eye watering and breathing in hot weather, so a gentle wipe and a cool room help. Cake is not a safe treat for cats. Sugar, butter, and chocolate can cause trouble, so call your vet if she ate some. Keeping desserts covered and out of reach is the best way to keep curious paws clean.

She seems to be holding her breath and hoping the frosting will vanish. A warm washcloth will take care of her paws, and a cover will protect the next cake. That stunned, puffy face is the most charming witness we could ask for. Her expression says the cake was far more exciting than she planned.
