Nibbled arrives with a deck of 52 cards, 16 plastic clip on fish. There is also a sheet of eye stickers to attach to the little plastic fish. Adding the eye stickers was a lot of fun in itself!

Okay, so I’m the one to clip her nails and do the icky maintenance stuff so that may have something to do with it… maybe. This is Kitties face for everyone and I do mean EVERYONE else!! Five-year-old Alice practically lays on her. I walk in the room and I get the evil eye. Hiss. Run. So, the idea that my Mom wanted ME to shave the cat was almost ludicrous.
