I've not noticed anything else that Rajah likes other than his cat food although he does like to bite the bread or rolls through the plastic, but give him a piece of bread and he's not interested.  He will also take or leave chicken, turned up his nose completely at shrimp, although to be fair it was marinated in thai curry paste.  :sick:

A few weeks ago, I was eating some Sainsbury's wine gums and Kylie was poking her nose around. I thought I would let her sniff one so she would leave me alone. She sniffed, then licked and carried on licking for a couple of minutes until I took it away from her  :Crazy:

Dear, departed, Uncle M would eat everything and anything with the rare exception (tomato was about the only thing he wouldn't eat). He was another one who was fond of popadums (and prawn crackers). The Munchkin isn't one for hooman food (other than chicken) though he does love the shredded duck from local chinese.

Years ago, a friend got two ckittens from a farm cat litter - one of them went bonkers for raw cabbage, loved it, as well as other veggies!   

Molly's a fussy bug'r and doesn't have any peculiar tastes (drat) - but she  likes BBQ spare ribs from the Chinese - it's one dinner I know that the both of us look forward to settling down to in front of the TV together.   :evillaugh:

She also loves mashed potatoes and gravy, and yes, I have been known to waste some 'crackers' spread with Philadelphia cheese - just so she gets to lick the cheese off the cracker. :Crazy:

Amber has pretty sensible tastes but Chilli will eat most human food. She particularly likes potatoes and peppers, but only if cooked.

My lovely tabby, Sebastian (passed away some years ago) used to love poppadoms, so much so that when I told our local curry house, they used to give me a doggy catty bag to take home for him :)

Milo would love it if our curry house did that, Milo adores poppadoms, he will drag the bread basket off the table to get to them.

He also eats, muffins, yogurts, biscuits, pretty much anything.

Jess is a lot more selective.

Honey likes toast - but she doesnt mind if the bread isnt toasted yet, she will whip it out the toaster before I've had a chance to toast it  :evillaugh:



And what about Joe and the baked beans  :evillaugh:

(I'm sure I posted this last night :Crazy: unless I didn't click post)

So Gillian gets Toast,  Baked Beans and Tomato Soup cooked for her !,   I am V jealous,  all I get in the morning is a paw round the head and a get up Mum noise from all 10 of them !

LOL! you sussed it Teresa - and I don't really mind that the edges of the bread are nibbled a bit before it gets to me - its the way the butter looks so incredibly smooth that worries me!   :evillaugh:

Little Girl (rip) loved rasins... and would attempt to take fingers off to get them.

Penguin loves anything salty, crips, peanuts etc but he will taste test everything given a chance. Oh and bread is not able to be seen by Penguin, he'll either eat through the bag to get to the bread or he'll pee on it.

Strawberry full fat yogurt is a fave with Lirael & Gizmo. Smoke loves ham but not bacon.

One of the bunch did taste test a batch of cheese cakes I made ;)

Ahhh yes I have a cheesecake fan here.

Sweet Cinnamon porridge - yes it's already flavoured, and is delicious. I get mine from Sainsburys, but it's available in Tesco too.  :wow: ..... http://www.ocado.com/catalog/images-hires/49471011_H.jpg?identifier=0d9473fce9be2ff1e3a3ea8912d9dac6

Or you could just do regular porridge and add a couple of spoons of cinnamon sugar, available from Waitrose. It's also delicious  :) http://www.ocado.com/webshop/product/Cooks-Ingredients-Fairtrade-Cinnamon-Sugar-Waitrose/43241011?parentContainer=SEARCHcinnamon%20sugar

Belle looooves custard, Meeko loves cheesecake and mayonnaise, other 2 don't have any odd tastes that I can think of

Den, where do you get sweet cinnamon porridge? Is it already flavoured?

Yogurt, blueberry muffin, custard, cream (squirty only), salad cream, tartare sauce, cherry and vanilla cake, pickled onion monster munch, caramalised onion houmous, porridge (specifically sweet cinnamon flavour), ice cream, dog food (boy, does he love that!), hay, dog hair, rabbit hair, toe nail clippings.

I have a slighty odd cat  :scared: he also likes all fresh seafood except Tuna .. Yet he will eat Tuna flavoured cat food.

When I got Amber she removed the spare rib bones from the bin after a chinese meal (they now go straight out to the bin just in case) and she seems to like any chinese food.
Dad used to try and give Mogs the end of his sandwich she soon persuaded him that dry bread wasnt her idea of fun (shes not his dog) and she would rather have his prawns and he could eat the dry bread. Being a push over thats exactly what he did  :evillaugh:

All sorts of odd tastes with our lot,  Daisy loves Marshmallows,   Ruby Red Loves Salad and Vegtables,   Ripley loves Papadoms,    Teabag has a right obession with bread and Gracie Dirty Face goes mad if she hears you crak an egg open,  she is all over you until she gets some.

Rajah has developed a really strange love of late.  Fruit cake, can you believe, is top on his lists of must eats, and he will guzzle every crumb of my raisiny, curranty, datey home made fruit cake if I am not careful.  However, no-one else in the family will touch it apart from him and i, so suppose I should take it as a compliment.

What strange things do your cats eat?
