Adored pet helps create holiday memories

One funny moment on Christmas Day involved the cat. After we whipped the cream for the trifle, abetted by his very favourite human, he licked the beaters before carefully placing them in the dishwasher.

(No, I was kidding about the dishwasher. Actually he had one of his assistants do that.)

Cats enjoy Christmas too. Do they welcome the season as humans do?
