If I'm eating a waffle my cat will actually come and snatch it out of my hands and then run away, not even joking
Lmao, do they actually try to eat it or is it just to make you chase them?
My favorite one was just a strip of jerky, so it wasn't exactly surprising for mine to steal, but it lives on in memory because we called her name and she froze solid in midstep. And you could see the split second decision being made in her head before she bolted off faster than I have seen her run from the pizza guy.
The cogs were visibly turning between "delicious meat product" and "thing I am not supposed to do" and for some reason that was so funny I can't even be mad.
No he actually just starts feasting on whatever bite he managed to snag; I have to stand up to eat waffles sometimes because he tries so hard to eat them
Standing in the middle of the room to eat is standard cat ownership. I have to do that with oatmeal and cereal.
Thank god this one isn't as smart as my last cat, either, because if I refused to pick him up he'd just climb up me and force the issue. There'd be no peace if she realized she could do that to reach food.
I know that reaching paw routine. Ours grabs for expensive meat and ...beans, of all things.
Cats have weird tastes sometimes
Ours was a fiend for beans, pumpkin, elk meat, broccoli and expensive cheese. Beans were the most hilarious thing, she'd reach for them a not-very-sneaky paw if you weren't paying attention.
That's an interesting combination lol. I had a cat that loved cantaloupe; he'd come from anywhere in the house when he smelled it
Yeah, ours loved cantaloupe too we just didn't buy it very often. We figured her favorite foods probably had some nutrients she was missing or something. She was a bit of a hausschwein, if we were eating it she wanted it.
Obligatory: don't feed your cats people food without verifying that it's safe for them to eat, cats kidneys and liver are really fragile compared to humans.
Yes be especially careful with onions, garlic, anything in the allium family. Any food seasoned with them is dangerous to cats but they're practically in everything that would otherwise be okay as an occasional treat.
+1, we're both unable to eat onion and garlic so we're extremely vigilant about ingredient lists. Watch out for artificial sweeteners too, many of them are outright toxic for cats.
