Ok, it doesn't matter what we're doing in the kitchen, cats are always there with us. If I'm doing dishes, they're keeping me company, and wait for me to splash a bit of water for them. And no matter what food I'm cooking, they both will tell me how to do it and will supervice the whole process. Needless to say that I end up stepping on tails and paws few times, and actually get blamed for it, although I didn't ask them to join me
