The Radio 2 Breakfast Show host and her family marked their cat Wilbur's birthday with a decadent red velvet cake, and judging by the photo she shared to Instagram, he wasn't impressed.
The grey and white long-haired cat looked furious as he was held up to the table by Zoe's son Woody. In front of him was a cake topped with white chocolate shards and three candles, perhaps to mark Wilbur's age.

"Birthday boy Wilbur wanted a @marksandspencer Colin The Caterpillar cake rather than a Naked Red Velvet Cake but he enjoyed his catnip mouse from @hassockspetcentre very much. We miss you Monkey cat," Zoe wrote, referring to her ginger cat who sadly passed away in December.

The first was a daytime scene with silhouettes of the characters riding their bikes through the woods, while the second was a more sinister nighttime setting depicting the Upside Down and a monster.
