My cat just licked a salt & vinegar chip. I threw it out. Now he is going back for more with his
head in the bag. Anyone else have pets with strange tastes?

4. I had a cat that liked...
Doritos, spaghetti, steak..but only if you chewed it for him, ham and cheese. He would hear the baggie from the ham and cheese making noise and he'd come running. Some other stuff too.

My kitty now, I think will eat anything. If you leave a glass on the table he'll drink out of it, doesn't matter what it is. He ripped open cookie and ate some. I think it's because he lived on the street most of his young life. Now he has it made. LOL!!

8. One of my cats could hear a potato chip bag from 300 yards
And would run up into your face to get his share of the chips. It was embarrassing at parties - the cat had to have his own bag of chips so he would not harass the guests.

One of my college roommate's cats loved mushrooms. The roommate like Canadian bacon and mushroom pizzas and if given a chance her cat would eat all the mushrooms and leave the bacon and cheese.

9. Our kitty, Cider, loves mushrooms...
If I open a can he's up on the counter trying to quickly snag one from the colander before I notice. He and Bailey, our Beagle Boy, also are into tofu.

10. My dog follows me around like a leg-licking maniac when I get off the stair-machine.
Edited on Tue May-24-11 11:34 PM by Hassin Bin Sober
She hides in the kitchen while I'm exercising cause she is scared of the machine. But when those stairs stop - it's on.

11. Wise Salt & Vinegar chips contain milk.
Check the ingredients. Maybe it's the milk coating that he liked?

13. My dog likes tomatos and green peppers.
She used to love ice until she figured out it wasn't really food.

14. Hehehe
Hi,
My late great Fergie (named after former Cubs pitcher Ferguson Jenkins) loved the salt snacks just like me, popcorn and potato chips. Never gave her any salt and vinegar though!

Peace

At one point I was also a time-share owner of a tabby who opened the highest kitchen cabinet to get to a pecan pie.

18. My cat Tubby will go crazy for seed corn
Planting a couple of years back and I had a heavy plastic bag of Silver Queen ready to plant on the ground. I saw the cat but thought nothing of it. When I went to open the bag he had already done it. Eating that corn and rolling in it like catnip. So weird, so Tubby. The name is from him jumping into a full bathtub more than once. Cats are cool.

20. My dog has never turned her nose up at anything I've given her
except celery. She almost doesn't like grapes, but if I peel off the skin she'll eat them.
