The cat looks good for being over 30 years old

I make a bigger deal of my dog's birthday than my birthday.

Who's the schmuck holding Molly?

Actually, they refer to him as “that asshole Tim”.

I understand this reference

I dont know, but he really needs to stop holding her husband like that

The cat and me share our birthday, this year for the 19th time. I always cook him a cat dinner, served warm. Rest of the year he is on a strict diet.

Offering cannibalism as a birthday treat is a new one

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

I don't know my cats birthday because she was a stray, but her estimated age lined up with my birth month so I registered her with a birthdate the same as mine (but many years younger)

Happy Birthday to the cat 😍

Is that a piece of paper on the cake? Otherwise I have to wonder as to how the picture is made.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You can order cakes with realistic pictures on them, they basically get “printed” on top of the icing with laser jet printers loaded with edible ink.

Nice, this potentially opens up some prospects of questionable cheeky presents.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Just saying, you don’t even need a printer for this…

Gorgeous. Seems pretty demanding on the decorator, however — both in labor and in moral dubiousness. Printing offloads the effort onto the customer, and allows photorealistic-ish pics. Can't argue against the 3d factor, though.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Hehehe, it's all about how badly you want your filthy cake decoration to be in 3D. But all joking aside, you should be able to get those photo realistic cake at bakeries that do them - and often you can ask them to just print the pic for you on an icing sheet instead of making the whole cake - in case you want to make the cake yourself.

[–] homes@piefed.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Unless that cake is actually for the cat (and not Tim), then he can wipe that smug frown off his face, lol

I get it.

Our dachshund was born on my 40th birthday.
