Happiness is only real when we share (food). I love shrimp croquettes a lot, they are simultaneously crispy and soft. I prefer to eat them with French fries. Jimi is wild about shrimps too, it’s his favourite human food. So while I was having lunch, he was patiently waiting for his portion… And afterwards we had a delicious dessert…

Enjoy this beautiful day, my friends, wherever you are. Peace, love and understanding.
Look at him, waiting patiently? Would he ever go for a grab? Or is he not that rude?
Hahaha… he’s not that rude and waits very patiently. I wonder what Louis C would do in this situation… 😉
He doesn’t eat human food! He never begs during meals, ever. Well, come on. He has to do SOMETHING right, non?
Well, Louis C keeps surprising me each time! Mr. Bowie didn’t eat human food but Jimi likes to join me on a regular base…
Yes, Louis surprises us all, not always in a good way. 😒
Maybe true, but he is a CAT after all! 🙂
Belaud also shared my meals. He really belonged.
Hi Micheline. Jimi’s mostly interested in fish and shrimps. Mr. Bowie didn’t like human food at all.
Jimi is a very polite kitty, but I can see he is very intent on the shrimp dinner. You and Jimi have a wonderful day, Herman! 🙂
Hi Lavinia. Jimi is always very polite and waits very patiently. But he loves shrimps very, very much. Just like me…
Jimi sends his regards! Wishing you a wonderful day, my friend!
He has a nice vulture look eyeing your shrimp.
Hi Tim. Whenever we’re having shrimps, I need to keep my eyes on Jimi because he’s so wild about this food. Mr. Bowie didn’t like shrimps at all.
Sounds like you need to get Jimi his own order.
Occasionally, I’m buying some extra shrimps portion because I know he likes them so much.
Jimi looks quite intent on his target – the food! Very funny!
Only when we’re having shrimps he loses control and wants that human food too…
At least he is a very discerning cat!
Well, I figured that out from day one… 🙂
Such a perfect gentleman.
Oh yes he is! He waits very patiently to get his portion after a few minutes… Such a sweet boy!
Lovely you two boys are sharing a meal……Teddy doesn’t eat ANY human food….EXCEPT for shrimp! He loves them – whenever I’m making anything with shrimp I must cut up two or three for him. Did your dessert have any touches of chocolate by any chance???? Not for Jimi of course but his Dad….. 🙂
Hugs, Pam and Teddy
Hi Pam. Mr. Bowie didn’t eat human food but Jimi likes almost everything I like to eat. Normally he doesn’t jump on the table but when there’s shrimps on the menu, well, that’s a different ball game!
We had raspberry yoghurt for dessert. Jimi loved it too… 😉
Sounds like a fabulous lunch hook up! Our little cat Petals sits on a chair beside me at dinner and it kinda bugs Jim 😏 but we persist. I push my chair out when he’s done so she can be in my lap. It’s our little routine. She doesn’t get on the table though, that would freak him right out, LOL ! I love that photo ! Petals says hello and paws in da air!! ❤️🐾 xK
Hi Kelly. Normally Jimi doesn’t jump on the table while I’m having lunch or dinner. But when there’s shrimps on the menu, well, that’s a different story! Shrimps are his favourite human food. Mr. Bowie didn’t like human food at all.
But Jimi never interrupts me or tries to steal some food. He just sits patiently on the table. Such a sweet boy!
Jimi sends his regards to Petals!
My Mr. Ferguson was a prince among cats, but he could not resist Parmesan cheese. It was the one thing that would lure him to jump up on the table and push his face right into the serving dish. On one occasion he nudged the cheese mouli toward my boyfriend, clearly saying “grate me some Parmesan, human.” The rest of the time his manners were impeccable. He loved yogurt, but would wait for me to finish and then clean the dish.
I can’t complain about Jimi’s table manners. He never interrupts me or tries to steal my food. He just waits very patiently for his portion. Normally he doesn’t jump on the table, except when there’s shrimps on the menu…
Jimi also loves yoghurt, no matter what flavour I buy, he loves them all.
We like Shrimps too Jimi. Sooooo good. And Fishes too!
We fully agree, my friends. Jimi loves fishes too, especially salmon…
Patient, yes, but certainly staring his portion down. Olive and I say YUM!
Jimi was very, very concentrated and convinced he would get his portion of shrimps… How can you say no to that look?
Oh you cannot say no to that fluffer. No way!
So true! We fully agree…
He looks very good and patient waiting for his plate.
And in the end, he got his plate with shrimps… of course! 😉
I’m not sure I would be so patient with shrimps… I ask after all, a cat!
And it’s always very hard to say no to a cat. The humans have to give a cat what he wants… That’s a fact!
I agree!
🙂
Sharing a meal with a friend is the best !
So true! Especially with a cat friend… 🙂
Lovely ” Lunch for Two”. Jimi, is really very well behaved, yet his eyes are totally focused on this shrimp plate. Moshu is not interested in any human food at ALL, not even salmon or vanilla ice cream, while me prior two male cats were crazy about everything, when I used to bake, they would be begging to lick of the bowl with the dough, and that bowl looked like being already washed. Happy lunchtimes to you both.
Hi Cornelia. That’s a funny story about the cat licking the bowl with the dough… Jones, our cat before Mr. Bowie was also a cat who ate just about everything. Mr. Bowie on the other hand never asked for human food.
Oh Jimi, bet that was worth waiting for!
Oh yes it was. And good news, today I bought fresh shrimps for tomorrow! I’m sure Jimi will join me for lunch together… 😉
I’m with you Jimi, shrimp is the best!!!!
So true, Polly! We both love shrimps a lot… 🙂
A very sweet photo. Jimi knows “shrimps” are to share. Our Z Cat, that left us too soon, she would not eat wet cat food or people food but she did love “shrimps” and she knew they were for sharing!
Glad you liked the photograph! I love the look in his eyes, staring at the food…
Mr. Bowie didn’t like human food. But Jimi loves it a lot…
You are right. Nothing makes you happier than sharing foods!
So true! And sharing with a furry friend is even more fun…
Welcome on HoB, Leonard! Thank you for visiting the blog.
Shrimp are sooo good, and it’s good that Jimi likes them too. Be warm and safe and well, have good shrimp and other good things, and have a nice Christmas!
Thank you so much, my dear friend! We’re having warm days right now and Jimi still enjoys his days outside in the garden, no white Christmas in this part of the world.
We’re having shrimps on the menu tomorrow. I’m sure Jimi will join me for lunch… 😉
Wishing you and your family a wonderful weekend, Christmas and good ending of the year. Let’s hope things will change in a good way next year.
Shrimp for you and Jimi, yesss. Long time friend, I wish all the best to you and yours in the holiday season and better things to come in the near and far future. Be well and happy.
Thank you so much, my friend! Jimi sends his regards (and is looking forward to tomorrow’s lunch…). 😉
Yes, we need to appreciate what is good in our lives!
So true! Especially when we’re talking about espressos and chocolate in the morning (and the rest of the day)…
Oh yes!
🙂
Shrimp croquettes sound nice. Your fries are really French? (LOL) Sometimes, we call our fries french, though most of the time, we just call them “Fries.” The potatoes to make the fries are from Idaho.
Stay well, stay warm, stay safe.
Hi David. We call them ‘fries’, no one calls them French because studies showed they where a Belgian invention centuries ago… 😉
Stay safe and healthy, my friend!
PS: we’re having a homemade shrimp salade at noon… 🙂
Belgian fries, Belgian chocolate, Belgian waffles … I see where this is going. French press coffee is really Belgian press coffee, LOL. 🙂 Have a great Christmas week!
Hahaha… well, as you already seems to know, Belgians are real food connoisseurs! 😉
Wishing you and your family a wonderful December and a good ending of the year!
Yum my sort of food! 🙂I can just imagine what you enjoyed for dessert! Big pats to that very patient kitty …
Hi Julie. Jimi sends his regards!
Always enjoy my desserts, they are my favourite part of lunch… 🙂
Wishing you a happy ending of the year!
So much happiness to read all the new posts from you two. I am thinking about you, and Papa, and sent much love for a peaceful, safe holiday. Christine and Bagherra

Hi Hedy. Thank you so much for your kind comment!
Wishing you a wonderful ending of the year! Jimi sends his regards!
Comme je te comprends Jimi. Ce sont bien des crevettes grises au moins ?
Violet a bien tenté de voler un morceau de la cuisse de dinde …. je lui ai dit attention, Papa Noël voit tout. Du coup, elle reste sagement avec ses jouets 😀
Un gros câlin pour toi et amitiés à ton humain
Thank you so much for the kind comment and hug, ma meilleure amie!
Jimi sends his regards! Je vous souhaite une agréable fin d’année!
