Had a farm cat once that was nuts about raw potato and cucumber. No other foodstuff, but any whiff of those and she’d be right there too take them off your hands.
Great mouser, too.
I’m just imagining a cat making mouse stew. Chef hat and everything.
Catatouille
As you’re out hiking with your cat, a lettuce, and a vacuum cleaner, you come upon a river blocking the path. On the side of the river, there’s a boat that’s just big enough for you and one other passenger.
The cat can’t be left alone with the lettuce.
The vacuum can’t be left alone with the cat.How do you get everyone across?
I take the cat across. Then return. Then I take the vaccum across. I return with the cat. I take the lettuce across. Then return. Pick up the cat, and cross a final time.
While you are picking up the cat, the vaccum eats the lettuce.
Dang, well surely it does that on the first trip and not after I’ve already spent so much time carefully shuffling everybody across? Right? Right?
Why does every cat have at least one hyperfixation?
Doesn’t everyone?
My cat will take a chunk out of any bread left on a countertop. He somehow also seems to love garlic and onion flavoured things despite their apparent toxicity. Naturally I won’t feed him those but he makes a solid effort to swipe them if I turn away.
We had a cat that would devour watermelon. They’d start pestering us to cut out open as soon as we’d get one, and then they’d eat like half of it. It’s a great way for the furball to get their liquids, so I’d get a watermelon a week during their season.
My second cat ever loved soy sauce, his sister French fries from McDonalds and vanilla flavoured protein pudding.
In the current cat generation: the oldest does love to take a bite or two from sourdough bread, and another one likes nutella (which is poison for him; he isn’t the smartest one if it wasn’t obvious)
But… But… Cats carnivores! /s
Mine can’t be left alone with bread.
NOM NOM NOM NOM
Ranch dressing and blondies for some reason.
Your catto has good taste
One of my senior cats LOVES lettuce but it has to be fresh and the right cut. It can’t be a bum end, and there’s some mysterious threshold for freshness. Once he gets it he guards it with his life and chows down; then asks for more.
You might say… he has a (fresh) lettuce fetish. perversely huffs the leaves
Grow that cat some greens. Rye, barley, oats, and wheat seeds are cheap to buy and easy to grow.
I grow them (cat grass seed mix) for my cat, but honestly she prefers when I pull her some of the crabgrass weeds that come up in my balcony plant pots.
Same. I grow them nice lush looking cat grass and they still prefer the crabgrass and johnson grass from outside.
I found out one of mine has a thing for flour tortillas one day after I had just bought a fresh 10 pack, left it still sealed on the counter and a few hours later, found she had nom’d her way through the plastic bag and ate a huge chunk out of all 10.
I mean give em a leaf why not
Does the cat love lettuce or plastic wrap?
