The Norwegian Forest Cat Was on the Counter When the Bread Went Missing
Sitting tall on the kitchen counter with her ears up and her green eyes wide, the silver Norwegian Forest Cat looks like she has just heard her name. Beside her is a crusty loaf of bread with a hollowed-out middle, and crumbs are sprinkled across the countertop in every direction. Her thick silver coat has a few crumbs caught in the fluff of her chest, and her long tail curls behind her. Behind her, a stone mug, a gray cloth, a succulent, and a few green onions sit by the window, and the early light is soft and warm.
Norwegian Forest Cats come from Scandinavia, where their thick double coats helped them survive cold winters. They are strong, agile climbers, so counters and high shelves are rarely out of reach. They are also friendly and intelligent, and they appreciate vertical spaces such as cat trees where they can perch and survey the room. Bread is not toxic to cats in small amounts, but it offers little nutrition and some bread contains ingredients such as raisins or garlic that are unsafe. Keeping food covered and offering a tall cat tree can help keep your cat off the counters. Your vet can answer questions about treats.
What a perfect look of surprise. She seems to be asking who could possibly be responsible for the bread. The crumbs near her paws have already given the answer. Still, with a coat this lovely, no one could stay cross for long, and the loaf will be forgotten by dinner.
