Forget the whole favorite child debate. Sometimes the most adored member of the family is actually the cat, which was recetly made clear to aptly named Jenny Katz.

Jenny's mother feeds her 17-year-old cat Coco a little bit of ice cream before bed every night. Jenny tells Mashablethat this routine started about a year ago after she moved out on her own.

But Jenny topped off the last of the ice cream the other day, which means Coco was pissed and so was her mom Debbie.

"They have such a funny relationship; it's almost as if she loves that cat more than she loves me," Jenny told Mashablein an email.

Regardless, Jenny describes Coco as the "sweetest cat you will ever meet," claiming that she used to be the cat's favorite before her mom stepped up the ice cream game.

"Coco used to love me more than anyone, but she probably loves my mom more now. Only for the ice cream," said Jenny.
