PUSSYFOOTING AROUND

CATS are notoriously selfish creatures that do what they want, when they want and think people are in-fur-ior - which makes the story of this trio all the more purr-plexing.

Felines trotting the globe with their owners in a variety of cutesy outfits... are you kitten me? But it's true: these three cats are living in the moment and going from one exciting destination to the next.

Scottish folds Sponge Cake and Mocha and British shorthair Donut have become internet stars after their humans, Olivia and Dan Nguyen, started posting pics of their jet-setting lifestyle.

They've been snapped at the Eiffel Tower in Paris, at Times Square in New York, at Disney World in Florida, on a gondola in Venice and traipsing through the streets of London. And there are still so many places on the planet for these pussycats to see.

The "dessert trio” as the kitties are called, have a million followers on Instagram and 1,2 million fans on TikTok.

They were adopted by the Nguyens in 2020 and became their "pandemic babies", bringing delight to their lives in lockdown.
