To own up or not?

DD3 booked her kitten in with the vet because she was doing strange coloured wees on the kitchen floor. Turns out it was a butternut squash that had rotted in the bottom of a cupboard and was dripping onto the floor.

Her problem is - what to tell the vet when she cancels the appointment?

And, I'd like to point out, she didn't get her housekeeping skills from me.
