It's true that most of our salad is 10p reduced bargains that OH picks up 10 minutes before the supermarket closes ....

... doesn't explain why it's then ok to eat grass and house plants though

Maybe he likes to make sure his greens are fresh

That is fabulous! Bertie likes veggies but his criteria is that they mustn't be green ... so tomatoes, potatoes and peppers are gratefully received, but lettuce and broccoli are met with disdain ... doesn't explain why it's then ok to eat grass and house plants though

Good boy Riley!! Gotta love him!! Mr. salad!!

I must show Oliver this pic... raw vegetables are one of few untried territory even for Ollie...

Here we go, finally got a good pic of him

Here he is tonight having his tea

Lukey had a sniff but didn't actually eat any.

Leo would eat absolutely anything given the chance ! Nothing is safe

Our old cat Benny, loved crisps and also used to steal cotton buds out of the packet and carry them round.

Susanne (urbantigers) · « **Reply #32 on:** November 08, 2007, 11:06:18 AM »

No wonder he's growing into such a big boy eating all his greens!

Mosi has a thing about Always wrappers too. He's obsessed with them.

alisonandarchie · « **Reply #31 on:** November 08, 2007, 10:05:01 AM »

Riley is such a healty cat , amazimg, could he give Archie some healty eating tips

clarenmax · « **Reply #30 on:** November 08, 2007, 09:11:53 AM »

Cracked me up about the Always Ultra

Max was a good boy eating his veggies on Sunday, I cooked a roast so saved him some chicken for his little treat bowl, but he also ate:-
3 small pieces of carrott
2 bits of broccili
2 bits of roast potato

Only little bits of course, but he was totally loving it

Last night he was pesking for a bit of BBQ pringles, but o/h gave him a bit of salt & vinegar crisp instead, which he will go mental for

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #29 on:** November 08, 2007, 07:42:22 AM »

Well, I never did! Broccolli, leek mash, popcorn, apples, iceberg lettuce!!

Crazy crazy cats. Aren't they just briliant?

It gets worse

I just caught him with an entire 10 pack of Always Ultra in his mouth

Too slow to capture it on camera I'm afraid but he had the whole pack in his mouth and was walking into the living room with them

dolcetta46 · « **Reply #20 on:** November 07, 2007, 19:56:25 PM »

No he is not a freak, he is trying to be a rolemodel for all of us healthy food gobblers!!

He's lucky we like little freaks like him then!

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #18 on:** November 07, 2007, 19:22:37 PM »

Ahhh bless him ... he's been reading all the literature about getting 5 portions of fruit and veg a day and obviously wants to make sure he gets his

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #17 on:** November 07, 2007, 18:16:41 PM »

Awwwwwwwwwwwww he is not a freak....how could you call him that

It's official - Riley is a freak

Bought a cooked chicken for dinner tonight, I lovingly picked off the brown meat and skin for the boys then chopped it into delicate morsels. With my piece of chicken I had a jacket potato with the insides scooped out and mashed up with leeks

All the way through the preparation of the chicken I was met with the most hideous, hunger starved yowling from both of the boys. When I could take no more I put their bowls down and Riley ate about two small pieces of chicken before scaling the kitchen worksurface and tucking into the mashed up potato and leek filling that had tumbled out of the skins

He did a simlar thing last night wrestling me for a piece of lettuce that had fallen out of my wrap ignoring the succulent chunks of chicken in the process

its weird how some cats love human food and others arent interested at all. jasper wont eat any meat at all which i find really odd. but fish, popcorn, healthyfood, butter, ice cream, prawn crackers.... he loves!!!!

Yep, it's funny isn't it. Riley is not as food orientated as Lukey but he eats the most random things where as Mr Piglet aka Lukey won't eat any fruit, veg, popcorn etc He is partial to a cheesy wotsit though

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #14 on:** October 17, 2007, 20:11:46 PM »

I have mentioned this before but foxy will actually sell body parts in order to get a mushroom ... cooked, raw, sliced, button, in sauce or out it doesn't matter as long as it's a mushroom

she also eats all human food (and I do mean all) but mushrooms are actively sought out!

Rossi on the other hand does NOT eat ANY human food .... except beef and onion crisp. And Zephyr goes scatty for prawns and any cooked meat.

Oliver, a.k.a. walking (+ pouncing, scratching, purring) hoover, so far ate sultanas, dried fig, potatoes, peas, brussel sprouts (special reminder to Lucy ), broccoli and carrots, though the veggies are usually covered with either bechamele, cream or cheesy sauce. I thought he had a bold palate for a cat, but I don't think even he would go for raw tomatoes...

Next time someone tries to feed me brussel sprouts I'll know who to pass them on to!

Anyone know how much a junior cat ticket costs at the cinema?!

I was just trying to eat some cinema style sweet popcorn when Riley tried to get his fat face in the bag, I threw both of them a piece each to distract them and show them that it wasn't something they wanted to eat just something to bat around but Riley gobbled his piece down then ate LuLu's too

He then came back to me and tried to get in the bag again, he'll be wanting to go to the cinema next!

Xanthe will give any unattended (or attended!) plate a try - she's tried melon, butterscotch angel delight and gingerbread. She loves her food!

blackcat · « **Reply #8 on:** October 06, 2007, 07:41:18 AM »

I once had a cat with a passion for brussels sprouts. I always assumed it was because of the gravy, but maybe not

Sabrina (Auferstehen) · « **Reply #7 on:** October 06, 2007, 07:37:56 AM »

See how he likes rasins.

I've had two cats who will drool over my hands to get at my rasins.

Lirael enjoys pears and Little Girl loved peas. Right now we're dealing with Penguin who will not let you eat a crips in peace...

Mosi once ran off with some raw broccoli and scoffed the lot

But I don't think he's prepared to give up the chicken just yet.

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #4 on:** October 05, 2007, 18:47:16 PM »

Helen if your boy likes his fruit and veg he'll probably like Cantelope (sp) melon .... both Foxy and Zephyr adore it. I quite often buy ½ a melon ... I scrape the pulp out of the middle (pick the seeds out) and let them eat the fleshy bits that the seeds are attached to. If I use a teaspoon and scrape the flesh with lots of juice into a bowl they both lap it up and always want more.
