I’m so sorry, Mr. Bowie. That’s a can of peas, no tuna or wild Alaska salmon. Of course you make mistakes, Mr. Bowie. You are a cat. I’m human. If you’re not making mistakes, then you’re not doing anything. We can only go forward by making mistakes. Would you like a treat?
“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.” – Albert Einstein
Hands on Bowie & Jimi 
You can’t fault a fellow for trying, can you?
No we can’t, Yvonne… Extra treats for Mr. Bowie!
Mr Bowie is no fool. He knows the outcome of “mistakes” is a treat 😀
Well Emy, it seems I underestimated Mr. Bowie…
Well you are in fine company Mr Bowie…tonight it was lets mistake the kitty kiss for love..it was dinner time…my mistake! 🙂 hugs Fozziemum
It’s all about going forward, Fozziemum… 😉
That it is ..forward to the cupboard and the food! 🙂
Ha ha ha… So true! 🙂
hahaah 🙂
Looks like even though he met with disappointment from the contents of the can, he’s checking out the sink in case some morsel of more interesting food MIGHT have landed down there! Good luck Mr. Bowie. Happy hunting….
Pam and Sam
What’s in the sink, Pam…?? An empty can from delicious home made tomato soup… 😉
I think there’s tuna in the beans 😀 Pawkisses for a Happy Day 🙂 ❤
Thank you, Angelswhisper! Have a nice day! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Mr. Bowie has my sympathy – only a biped could think a can of peas is a good idea when you could have fish!
I’ll keep your advice in mind for the next time, Clowie. Thank you!
Much wisdom there…if we’re not making mistakes we aren’t really trying much in this life. Gotta have a good mistake or failure once in a while, or we’re not taking any risks at all.
So true, Debra! Sometimes it’s good to learn to see things in the right proportions.
I see Mr. Bowie believes you have nothing to loose by trying. My Tony comes running at the sound of a can, any can. Speaking of treats, this was a nice treat to start my birthday with Mr. Bowie. Thanks.
Happy Birthday, Angela! Wishing you all the best and let’s hope there’s cake, chocolates and espresso!
Mr. Bowie loves the sound of me opening a jar with yoghurt or junket…
Herman I think Mr. Bowie has been secretly learning to read, in case the smell of food doesn’t always tell what it is……he is a very smart cat, after all.
I’m still underestimating Mr. Bowie after all these years… Shame on me!
Bonduelle peas!!! I miss them ❤ lol
That’s my favourite label, Marc-André. I never leave the shop without them… 😉
I miss that brand 😦 not around here sigh. One thing to move back to Germany for eventually 😉
That would be a very good reason to go back… 🙂
Indeed! Haha
Najar, would eat them! She defines most anything edible as cat food.
She reminds me of Jones, the cat that lived at my Dad’s place. She also like to eat almost everything she could find. She even liked pineapple, really, I’m not joking!
Mistakes? We cats don’t make mistakes. Did you see the outcome of that mistake?
My goodness! How could I be so stupid… 😉
I’ve never known a cat who didn’t like at least one vegetable. My old Maine, Apricat, was crazy for canned mushrooms, my boyfriend had a cat who would devour Hearts Of Palm, and asparagus is apparently a breakout hit with lots of kitties.
Asparagus…?! Really…?! I should give it a try…
Jones, the cat that used to live at my Dad’s place also liked a lot of vegetables.
Cans are always good for a satisfying scratch on the side of the face. 😀
All cats seems to like the sound of opening a can… I wonder why… 😉
haha they do! funny 🙂
Mew mew mew Mr Bowie mee had thee same fing happen thee other day…mee thott it wass sum sorta fish an it wass brocolli soup…peee eeeeeew! 😉

LadyMum did buy sum tuna inn thee can butt no salmon….shee sayss mee iss too young fur that *sighss*
What do you fink Mr Bowie???
Siddhartha Henry =^@@^=
Thew day my cats don’t come running when I use the can opener is the day I worry about them! Even then, once I open the can, I have to empty it, then let them sniff the empty can so they know it isn’t kitty food. (The wet cat food I feed them comes in a can with a pop-off lid, so they don’t react to the sound.)
Ha ha ha… I can picture the scene. So funny cats go wild when we open a can…
Awww- poor Mr. Bowie!
Don’t worry, Shrimp… Mr. Bowie got some extra treats!
Wonderful!🌹
Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
*((trills))*
Love the quote and the pic. 😀
Thank you, Sharon!
Our old Abyssinian Mr. Austin used to like peas and carrots if served in chicken stock. Perhaps Mr. Bowie is looking for the can of chicken stock? 🙂
Thanks for the idea… Maybe I can give it a try… How about it, Mr. Bowie? 😉
Walking on the kitchen countertops is forbidden here! You would get no treats for doing that! (Best do it at night when everyone is asleep!)
Greetings from Greg and his cats
Hi there, Greg and the cats! Welcome on HoB!
Now you made me wonder what Mr. Bowie’s doing when I’m asleep… 😉
Just the sound of opening the drawer, makes cats thinking crazy, that there will come out the can-cat opener.
Cats are really so smart and the have no patience with you… 😉
Mr. B’s thinking, Herman- u’r mistake is not feeding me! Treats?
How can I refuse Mr. Bowie a treat…?? 😉
Our cat Leo loves strawberries, pineapple and popcorn but won’t let us take his photo while he’s eating them for fear that the word might get out and the other cats ridicule him for eating mere “people food.” He must always maintain the cool cat public image.
Hi Karl, welcome on HoB. Thank you for visiting and following the blog!
Please give it another try, I would love to see pictures of Leo eating “people food”… Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
I’m sure Mr. Bowie explained to you that you made a very grave error. Cats do not make mistakes. You obviously opened the wrong can. 🙂
Thanks for telling me the cold, hard truth… Much appreciated! 🙂
