Persian Whiskers and Chinese Whispers

People are such suckers for cats. But cats are not suckers for people. This one refused to play along. It very much had its own game to play. As soon as someone appeared to try to take its picture, it would stubbornly turn its head away. I have a feeling it's a game this cat has been playing for some considerable while. It was very good at it. 

I notice that this cafe has a top hygiene rating. I guess the cat is pretty good at keeping the rats down. Just a pity about all the hairs in the soup.
