Customer: “I have a new kitten for an appointment.”

Me: “Okay, let me get some information from you…”

(I get a lot of information and come to the question about color.)

Me: “And what color is the cat?”

Customer: “It’s cream.”

Me: “Cream and white?”

Customer: “No, just plain cream colored!”

(We get back to the room and I take the cat out of the carrier. It’s a black cat.)
