Of my Gang of Fur, only one of them is a maniac for my food. But that one, Milo, just goes nuts over any sort of meat that's actual meat and not cat food. Especially ham.

He didn't eat them but would rub his cheeks on the cutting board if I was cutting them, like catnip. None of my other cats did that.
Ricky (RIP) had a sweet tooth and HAD to have a bite of your donut or muffin. He especially loved angel food cake. Once I had one in the counter (covered) and the next morning found it on the kitchen floor in pieces. He was a big beautiful brown tabby Maine Coon with an even bigger personality.

...for arugula and spinach. He runs to the kitchen if he hears the crackly sound of the plastic bags the greens come in.

It has 3 drawers in it and the bottles/ jars are laying flat. My Susie will pull the drawers out and knock different bottles out of the way to find what she is looking for.... nutmeg! Then she will rub her face all over the container and purr.

Weird cat!

on the log pile. We could not get Gerry off the log pile. He would sit on it and rub his face against the honeysuckle logs.

No I don't force my cat to be vegan. He eats cat food. But, it was pretty funny when I went to another room and found him munching on my tofu stir fry.

I had another cat who I would share my vegan donuts with. He loved it.

20. I Used to Have a Cat Who Looooved Mushroom Soup
Mon Nov 6, 2017, 06:51 PM

I was once preparing a beef stew in mushroom sauce for the crockpot. When I opened the can, he came running over, all excited, and he wouldn't leave me alone until I gave him a spoonful from the can. He lapped up every bit.

Every time I got a can of anything out of the cupboard, he would come running over, insisting on checking out what was in the can. He was very disappointed if it was beans, chicken soup, or anything else.
