One loves cardboard, he will eat any cardboard he gets his fangs sank into, I guess he has an addiction.

All 5 of them go crazy from dried duck, they will climb up my leg to get piece of that.

One has also some weird fixation to pasta and very spicy meat, I don't think that is good for him, so I don't give that to him, but sometimes I had to physically move him away from my dinner and he just kept coming back.

Little one also likes to eat lawn, she purrs and kneads while eating the lawn, good thing is I don't need sheep to keep lawn trimmed.

Can't take butter to table, pasta eating cat will raid the butter, one time I had to get something from kitchen and when I came back to dinner room, there he was licking my butter, when he saw me closing in he took a bite and run with a freshly stolen chunk of butter in his mouth. Don't know how bad butter is for a cat, but I have not given that to him and luckily he has not been able to steal butter since.

I guess flies are their natural food, those they like a lot, but it would be weird food in my books.

Seri loves potato chips and ice cream.  If I'm sitting on the floor with watching TV with some Lays Salt & Vinegar or some Haagen Dazs, she will gently put one paw on the edge of the bowl and slowly pull it toward her.  She's very polite about it, but also very persistent, so I always have to share.

One of my kittens likes strawberries and both of them REALLY enjoy mashed potatoes and ice cream.  If I let my boys eat what they wanted, when they wanted both would be in the Guiness Book for Fattest Cats!

Malte loves coffee and raspberry jam

Tundra will steal any bread that is left out. She LOVES it!

I don't think Inara or Fox has any wierd food that they love.

Inara loves dog food, but that isn't so wierd.

My Sandy, well he is extremely moody. He wont even sometimes eat one food twice in a row. We have had him for just a month yet and he has gotten sick twice, so didnt experiment a lot yet but still, he has eaten dates, bread, and just today morning, bit of bakery cake.

My one cat, Bijou has an insane addiction for bananas! As soon as you peel one she instantly will materialize beside you.

Matt loves yogurt, cream cheese and NEVER put down your cheesecake. bad for kitty, but he'll eat it anyway.

My old cat Sassy used to love to mooch Lays Classic chips, but she's no longer with us. She was a  pretty impressive beggar :)

Miagi loves anything crunchy. Chips, cereal and crackers.

Tiger loves fresh air popped popcorn. Not that I blame him because it's tasty! He also loves chicken and pizza crust.

Angel.. she really doesn't like scraps she's picky and only likes her food and treats but will have a bite of chicken if I have it.

FYI - I don't give my cats all of this stuff, if I have it they will get a bite not a huge amount.

My Ra (who passed in September) loved Angel Food cake and green olives.

My kitten, Thor, loves cereals for breakfast. Every time someone's got a bowl and is sitting on the sofa, he'll come. Oh, and olives. He'd kill for olives.

i tried to give all 3 of my babies some kale yesterday, because I was having some...none of them liked it...they sniffed and sniffed and sniffed. one of them actually licked the kale leaf...and continued to sniff around the kale leaf, hoping there would be something more to their liking behind it hahah

McGee actually loves pizza crust.  He gets it as an occasional treat and will switch between batting it around and chewing/eating it.

I don't know if I'd call this weird but turkey burgers. I grill a plain Jennie O 93% lean turkey burger and cut it up into small pieces. Lilith and Sophie absolutely love it. Bailey (the dog) does too, of course, but she'll eat almost anything. I don't give the cats any people food other than plain grilled, baked or broiled meats. The dog has a MAJOR sweet tooth and would run me down for some gummy bears or a doughnut.

My cat likes asiago cheese...and only asiago. I've offered other varieties and he turns up his nose. He loves the taste of coconut oil but will walk away from bacon grease, hamburger grease, etc. He also likes ranch dressing.

My kitty won't touch human food for the most part. However, she LOVES olives and reacts to it the same way as catnip. She doesn't eat them though - just licks them and then rolls around, lol. She also loves Becel olive oil margarine.
