I have just spent 3 hours baking for my visiting mother in Law! I made madeira cake, banana loaf and dundee cake. I left it to cool at the back of the worktop and went to the loo - came back an all of it was gone. Puppy proceeded to punk in front of me - guess I know which dog it was to tell off ;)

Why can dogs not resist stealing? They had breakfast, dinner and leftovers from our dinner but still managed to eat 3 1kg cakes!!!

Rant over - thankyou for listening :)

Lol can empathise completely I have locusts here too...all be it not dogs they are well behaved and rarely nick food, but I have a rogue 4 year old with a capacity to eat like you would not believe (he is a skinny wee thing) today I lost the contents of the fridge..all the cold meats and half a block of cheese, pots and pots of yoghurts, and probably lots of otherstuff I can't play the fridge memory game too well. Buy a quick cake for the MIL and dust with icing sugar....sometimes needs must!

I know how you're feeling.

I spent ages making a gorgeous carrot cake, infused it with orange and lemon juice, iced it, placed it on a plate ready for visiting family, nipped out for 2 minutes, come back in the kitchen all the dogs are looking innocently at me and half the cake is missing! Never did suss who the culprit was.

Cats are just as bad, had a perfectly roasted chicken sitting on the table in the kitchen ready for visiting brother-in-law and his wife, popped out for 5 minutes only to come back to the cat happily munching its way through it!

Our dog had half of the Christmas turkey last year, we left it to cool off on the back of the worktop, nipped to the loo an came back to find the back door open and the turkey gone. Worse of all the dog looked so proud of what he done, hubby weren't to happy though!!

Oh Binbob what a fab idea, my Lab might have to eat my newly stuffed wallet! Am a bit skint at the moment and could do with the bank giving me some money....might even be able to get on home insurance!...Do you think they would pay out if perchance my wallet had been accidentally covered in pate? How would they know there was no real money there too?

My cat on a normal day hunting in the outdoors of dunnet would come back with the normal mouse and odd rabbit,but a couple of weeks ago she managed to catch a weasel,we were very supprised as weasels are very vicious and vigilant,we got the weasel from her but sad to say it died shortly afterwards,from a bite in the back of the neck.

Mine got someones ferret once! From in their house. It brought it back alive and unharmed and we returned it to its owners - they were stunned to say the least. It was almost as big as the cat!

Oh cats are just as bad! Fintan constantly steals food! Grr!

Tonight i had a plate of sausage rolls out, covered in tin-foil. All gone! That was about 30 sausage rolls, but im sure he had brenon in on it too!

If there is any kind of chicken on the go the cats sit on the freezer and wait for their scraps. Then they come through when you are eating your dinner to get more! Cats lol

Get birds taken back to us too. A wee present at the back door in the morning! Better than some presents they have left us :roll:
