By weird I mean outside of regular cat diet, things like cornflakes, ketchup or banana bread (these are real examples from my and my friends’ cats).
Avocados, bread and cheese. Also they will do anything for chicken nuggets.
Unfortunately, I also own a tiny human as well, whose preferred diet also consists of the same things and has a short attention span. The cats adore tiny human as she is a source of unguarded treats.
The struggle is real.
God help me as tiny human just found out about avocado toast with shredded Parmesan… The cats are thrilled.
Oh no, your cats are millenials, now you’ll never afford a house!
Does “his own vomit” count? I found him behind a table munching and crunching on something. Turns out he had thrown up there at some point, it went unnoticed, dried, and he was eating little dried bits of chewed up “party mix” snacks.
Really, this seems efficient. Recycling.
Garlic bread. Which I can’t let him have, because garlic is toxic to cats.
Spinach, Broccoli, Green beans and peas
My little idiot is very confused about his role in the food chain
Mine sits politely at the counter while we cook (no paws on the counter) waiting to taste anything we are cooking.
I don’t think she knows she’s a cat.
Plastic. Especially if it makes a loud crinkling sound.
I once housesat and the cat would bite any soft fruit as well as through the plastic bags of snacks if left unattended. I’m attaching the photo of what a peach bitten by that cat looked like. I hope the attachment works, first time trying this
I’ve found stolen tomatoes and eggplant that look just like that peach. It’s like they were playing with it.
At least in my case the cat didn’t take the fruit elsewhere, it would just bite it on the spot. Cleaning up after a sticky mess of fruit all over the apartment doesn’t sound fun…
I had ferrets for a while. they liked to steal and hide things. you learn to check under the couch weekly just so you don’t find things by smell. and hope it’s not somehow inside the couch.
mostly it was the one guy, who preferred his chips and sweets, but knew his sister liked other things. she didn’t eat tomatoes or apples or fruit, but he’d carry that stinky orange down stairs for her, lips peeled back so he didn’t have to taste it too much.
The amazon packing tape.
It has a flavour!!
Broccoli. The vet says it’s ok.
tortilla chips and popcorn, only human foods she’ll eat…
Empty sunflower seed shells. Straight up cracking them, despite me blocking it. Also zucchini boiled with tomato sauce. One fervent attempt at a watermelon slice, munching down half of it.
Not my cat, but a family friend’s. The cat would go nuts for olives. One of them liked having olives on their pizza, and the cat would eat their way through unattended pizza boxes to get to the olives on the top of the pizza.
Olives, corn, Taco Bell hot sauce.
One of mine likes chewing on wires to electrical devices. He used to do it only occasionally, but at some point he got the hint that I’m shooing him away when he does it and now he’ll start whenever I’m at the computer and he’s upset I’m not giving him adequate attention. He stops by and stands up against the chair to let me know he wants attention, and if I explain to him that I’m working on something and you’ll need to wait, he’ll immediately move to chewing at the wires.
This along with the fact that he’s more interested in me the second I start talking on my phone means I have to leave the room absolutely any time I want to answer or make a phone call.
I love him and he might have the happiest disposition of any cat I’ve met, but he’s really an asshole sometimes. He pounces me when I’m sleeping sometimes too which can really hurt if his nails get me.
I have a cat that likes olives, particularly spicy ones.
