The kit-kats ate all the Kit-Kats, they devoured forty pounds
They ran like goofy goobers then they all collapsed in mounds.
“Oh Henry!” cries the owner’s wife, “Look what these smarties ate!”
But Henry, he just snickers, adding “Wait ’til after eight.”
“They’ll get wrigley in their tummies, and they’ll wake up seeing stars,
“Like they were in the Milky Way, in orbit around Mars”
Sure enough, the kitties woke up good and plenty sore,
But they all got hugs and kisses; now they won’t do that no more.
Via Imgur.
And I just refilled my can o’ kisses this morning! (Now it’s a mix of Halloween and Fourth of July themed wrappers from the last bag…and I think one lone dark chocolate kiss.)
I count only four kitty heads but somehow it looks like there should be so many more…
Judging by the excruciating tidiness, inability to recognize any of the candy and zen of the cats, I’m going to guess Japan.
… where Kit Kat is a big deal, by the way:

We’re definitely getting the short end of the stick on kit kats and stores with cats….
We are getting rooked! I want Kit-Kats in unusual flavors! *starts writing signs to protest this unfair treatment while marching in front of nearest Kit-Kat factory*
Wasabi kit kat? Oh dear god.
Sounds blasphemous, doesn’t it?!?!?
We have friends temporarily working in Japan. They will be home in a few weeks. They will be bringing Kit Kats.
Will you share? Puh-leezzzz?
If they actually last the frenzy that I know will ensue, I definitely will!
But they also make sake flavored ones! I had the red bean ones. Not bad. I wish we had more limited edition candy in the u.s…..it’d be fun to taste test.
I just checked, and there are no cat piles on my grocery store shelves. I must complain to the manager.
Wellll…I guess that would depend on your definition of the word “piles”.?
Bravo NTMTOM!
Bravo again, NTMTOM , I so enjoy your clever wit. Now you’ve made me hungry for some candy, that is not so good.
BTW, I don’t think that picture was taken in Japan. The writing on the candy wrappers looks very different from any Japanese characters that I’ve seen before. I thought it might be stylized Hebrew or Turkish, but I can’t find anything that confirms those guesses. Probably it’s something else entirely.
Hey Mike, the Imgur link doesn’t work!
Although the error page is pretty cute.
I don’t look nearly so cute in my candy comas.
No one does, Debg. It’s the adorable kitty lips.
Pbft! I think we’re all missing the obvious here. The pile of kitties too tired to resist snuggles? The enormous quantity of sweet goodies? Clearly, this is a photo of Heaven (the writing on the candy boxes being angelic runes). Had the photographer turned around, I have no doubt that he or she would have captured wombat-littered waterbeds, sugar gliders riding unicycles, and Alan Rickman reading the latest Charles Dickens novel.
Well that IS my description of Heaven for sure!!
MINE TOO!! BETTER THAN HEAVEN — CANDY BARS AND SOFT KITTY HEADS AND EARS TO RUB…. TAKE ME THERE!!!
Wow, AB–you captured my idea of heaven perfectly.
Can Prince and David Bowie supply the music, please?
Of course! They’ll be collaborating with Mozart and Kurt Cobain, so it will be masterful indeed 🙂
I’ll take the Mozart; drop the rest, they would clash with Alan Rickman’s classy/heavenly voice and Dickens, they’re best suited to a reading of Jack Kerouac by Vin Diesel.
C’mon, ClairedeLune, they wouldn’t be playing as the inimitable Mr. Rickman regales us with the latest Dickens – they would provide the musical intermissions.
I, for one, look forward to a collaboration between Richard Wagner, Jimi Hendrix and Phil Lynott.
“Richard Wagner, Jimi Hendrix and Phil Lynott.
Blasphemy! 😮
If you build it, we will come!

NTMTOM — You Really need to write a book. Preferably a children’s book for young and old kids.
Great poem need s’mores verses.
Heehee
That was simply awesome, NTMTOM! Encore! Encore!
Lol!
Is it my impression, or these kitties do have unusually long back legs???
Could be wrong, but the writing looks like it is Thai?
It’s hard to get a large-enough clear resolution to tell, but I agree it’s not Japanese. The 2 candies on the bottom right seem to support your Thai theory!
That explains it.
The cats are tie-Thai. zzzzzzzzzz
?
?? Bravo!
*claps like a maniac*
oooooo … Rimshot
Deep bow.
