I was wondering, what strange eating habits do some of your cats have? I have an adopted 13 year old, Katrina, who absolutely loves pretzels. She hears the plastic bag and comes running. I have a one year old female Pixe bob, Little Roar, who loves fresh ground peanut butter. I am not sure if she would eat the regular named brand peanut butter. When I was a kid, we had one that loved spaghetti and another one liked pancakes with powdered sugar


This is Katrina, the pretzel eater


This is Little Roar, the peanut butter lover

Toes likes tomatoes (especially tomato sauce) and canned asparagus. He's even eaten pizza off the opposite end of the slice a person was eating he likes tomato sauce so much.

Lets see here...Rusty only likes steak, bacon and ham. Babycakes eats steak, eggs, ham, bacon, chicken. Hef-cat eats steak, turnip grees, anything with tomato sauce, canned biscuits (prefers Hungry Jack flaky), bacon. Rurnt and Yum-Yum don't care for anything but cat food and Tiger will eat just about anything you put in front of him, even potatoes, asparagus, green beans !

Trent likes mashed potatoes, but he doesn't get them because he becomes a very gassy kitty when he eats mashed potatoes!
Last night he decided that he likes Saltine crackers. He went digging into the package to get one.

Ophelia likes gravy and sauces. Especially alfredo sauce.

They both like a couple of drops from our fingers of melting ice cream and sherbert.

The current mob aren't much for non-cat-food stuff, though Suzy does like yogurt and Cindy likes butter. Can't tempt them with anything else, or Fawn with anything.

Among their predecessors, though, there were some interesting addictions. The original troika (Shasta, Gryphon and Nibs) were BIG into people-food treats. Virtually any dairy stuff (Shasta and Gryph); virtually any cooked meat or fish, though especially chicken and sardines; tomato based sauces, chili, fruitcake (Shasta); junk food, especially Doritos (Nibs); pate (Gryphon, Shasta); Shasta and Nibs were the resident pot scrubbers -- Nibs, especially, loved casserole dishes that had browned on stuff around the edges -- he'd work on one corner for fifteen minutes and then move to the next, one paw in the middle to make sure it wasn't going anywhere. They were fun to share with!

IA. If you need me, just meow..
Twig my tabby loves anything that is bread related. We have to put our bread in the fridge or he will destroy the wrapper to get at it.
He also likes muffins, mostly the berry kind.
Rocket my Abby, loves Green olives. Not sure why
Luna likes cheese and lunch meat.
Isis isn't fond of much of anything, even wet cat food, (any kind or flavor)
Their all time favorite thing to eat scarily enough is Long Johns Chicken planks.(without the batter of course) I come home from work and they will cry and cry if I am carrying a bag or box from there. it's weird, ya think they'd hate that smell by now since mom smells like that every time she comes home. YUCK! LOL!

Pretty much, if we're eating it, they want it!


They love chicken, burgers, cheese, sour cream, lettuce (Yes, lettuce!), pizza cheese and cereal milk. Tillie and Jules like to lick the outside of our drinking glasses when they're full of a drink with ice. I guess it's nice and cold on their tongues. Khepera tried to eat some wasabi mayonnaise once, we wouldn't let him, we were afraid he's have problems with it.

Oh, and of course, TUNA!

Peaches likes chicken. But I have to cut it up small for her. She likes beef but I don't give it to her. She gets the runs with it.

Simba likes pretty much any meat that I will give him - beef, pork, chicken, fish. Because his tummy is touchy I only give him very plain meat - nothing spicy or in sauce, and I cut it into really small bites for him. It keeps him off of my plate while I'm eating, too, otherwise I have to eat with one hand and hold him back with the other!

I was laughing when I read the replies
Hmmm, lettuce and green beans. I never had a cat eat those. Jugen mentioned green olives. I forgot about those. I had a cat that loved them too and would go crazy after eating them. Sort of like after eating catnip
I think the strangest one I have seen so far was mushrooms. Who would think they would eat fungus

Roxy thinks he likes anything--he will steal it, take it away to a corner, decide he doesn't like it and then just leave it there. Some things he will actually eat are beef jerky, brick cheese, pepperoni (only from a pizza, not plain), sauces/gravy, and just about any kind of meat. Something I don't understand is that he does not like fish (?)

My RB cat Cuddle needed to have a plate of spaghetti whenever we had it, and one of my other RB cats, Snuggles, would eat just about anything.
