Mindlessly petting a cat is like mindlessly washing a knife.

We had a cat that right after she gave birth, for the next two weeks she had a serious weird craving for sliced cucumber LOL! I mean seriously, she'd attack us for it while we were trying to slice it up for her.
After about two weeks, just as suddenly as her strange craving started, it almost just as suddenly stopped and she went back to only eating typical cat food like a normal kitty.
Cats be weird yo. 😺
Gotta ask, how did she communicate that she very specifically wanted sliced cucumber?
It was kind of a freak accident really. We rarely kept any cucumbers in the house, but this time we just so happened to have one because we were gonna make a salad.
The cat happened to be in the kitchen when we started slicing it, and she smelled it and basically went batshit crazy going after it LOL! So, we sliced up about a quarter of it for her, and ended up getting her a couple more cucumbers from the store and each day we'd slice her some up around feeding time, until she lost the craving anyways.
