Mom orders cake with graduation *cap* - gets *cat* instead

[UrbScotty]

Of all the cat memes on the Internet, this one just might take the cake.

The hilarity began quite innocently, when Carol Gambrel placed an order for a cake for her daughter, Laura, who recently graduated from Indiana University.

The Zionsville mother provided a photo of Laura and requested a graduation-themed design, including a “cap” on top of Laura’s head.

Well, the bakery obviously misunderstood, as you can see from the above photo.

7. And such a beautifully drawn cat.

Really, people, do not let your three year olds decorate cakes.

10. Imagine what the cake decorator was thinking

when that order came in.

Another reason neat handwriting is very very important. Or is it enunciation that was the problem?

15. Could the diploma on the cake have been a hint?

19. Oh, I think it'll end up being a PR bonanza for them

A lot of publicity might just end up being good for them!
