Me gusta leche de gato!

Last night, my mama tica prepared a fruit drink for me. Fruit drinks are very popular here and they are very good ( & nutritious!) As I was lifting the glass to take a drink, I asked her what kind of milk it was. At that moment, here daughter's cat ran under the kitchen table and she responded "cat." I spit the milk back in the glass and set it down because I thought I was drinking cat's milk. She laughed for about 10 minutes at the expression on my face. It was only milk blended with canteloupe.

Since then, I ask for "leche de gato" for every meal.
