    You've heard of a fish on a bicycle - in this case the cat caught the fish and decided to keep the bicycle, and then like most cats cba and had a nap.

    This is why you don't feed the birds... it's akin to throwing a chip near seagulls.

    I remember when my parents let me invite a friend to Anna Maria Island in Florida. I had learned how to feed the seagulls (throwing the food way away from you.) I warned her. I did. She said she knew what she was doing. She threw it right next to her. 5000 seagulls. She screamed "Fine! Take it!" threw the bread in the air, and ran like hell for the hotel lol

    There's a junior fiction book titled "Who Sank the Boat" by Australian author Pamela Allen. A donkey is one of the first animals in the boat and is one of two animals on the front cover. That's what this photo reminds me of.
