Ah, Christmas; that time of the year when not letting your children get their own way will result in tears, tantrums and guilt-trips on the most celebrated family holiday.

 

While you may not exactly be too thrilled to shell out the cash on a drum kit or top-of-the-range electronic car for your little one, sometimes you just have to give in if you know it’s going to make your child really happy. And that is exactly what this couple have resigned themselves to.

 

Reddit user Mmmel took to the social networking site this weekend to share a snapshot of her young daughter’s Santa List, and it’s pretty clear that Christmas will only go ahead if she gets a cat.

 

Having lost both of their pet cats recently, the mother explained that her daughter has been really lonely for them, and now all she wants is a new four-legged furry friend.

 

 

For fear that Santa would have any doubt as to what she wants to find under the tree on Christmas Day, this little girl wrote out the word ‘cat’ in 16 different languages.

 

“What language do you want me to say it in? Here are 16,” she wrote at the end of her letter.

 

Of course, as Mum and Dad weren’t planning on replacing the cats (they also have two dogs), they have been left in a bit of a tricky spot.

 

“Husband says he will leave if I get a cat. Looks like we are getting a cat. Less work than the husband,” joked the mother in her post.

 

What we wouldn’t give to be a fly on the wall in that family’s home on the 25th!
