You do not need to be a detective to guess what happened here. Someone left pastries unattended and returned to find tiny paw prints stamped into them. While we are not blaming the cat, the evidence is pretty clear. Thankfully, it seems only two pastries were stepped on. From this photo, we cannot be sure what else happened to the treats.
The scene is hilarious: perfectly formed paw prints pressed into fresh baked goods tell a story of feline mischief with no need for witnesses. The cat's casual attitude only adds to the humor, as if it knows it is guilty but does not care. It is easy to picture the moment: the smell of pastries, a brief moment alone, and a deliberate decision to leave a mark. This is why cat owners know better than to leave food out, even for a minute. The real mystery: did anyone eat the untouched pastries?
