"Accidentally"

You're a monster.

You know you could have given them a little taste without harm, even though it has more salt than their food.

The cats can have a little bit of tuna, as a treat

[-] teamevil@lemmy.world 102 points 2 months ago

Everyone should have both types of cat.

Who just eats an entire can of tuna

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 26 points 2 months ago

I buy the little pouches of tuna and eat it with a fork. But it's usually flavored.

[-] mister_flibble@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago

The spicy Thai chili one is really good on rice, too. I usually add some sriracha mayo on top and call it a poor man's poke bowl.

[-] IMongoose@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

I sometimes scoop tuna out of the can with saltines. Pretty good 0 effort snack.

[-] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Also good source of protein.

[-] isles@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

I'm more of a sardines from the tin kinda fella.

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

In oil. Water packed sardines are disgusting.

[-] littlecolt@lemm.ee 10 points 2 months ago

Hi, it's me, the tuna can eater. It's tasty!

[-] todd_bonzalez@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago

Accidentally for that matter...

[-] bss03@infosec.pub 6 points 2 months ago

I'm a gourmand and a lazy one. If I go thru the effort to open a package, I'll probably eat the whole thing. I'm trying to get better at portion control, but I'm many months in and my instincts are no better, and I'm less happy.

[-] littlecolt@lemm.ee 9 points 2 months ago

A can of tuna is about 250 kcal. That is not bad, and it's all protein. You could do way worse!

I like tuna

[-] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

I find that one can of tuna is just about the right amount for one meal of tuna salad for one person (if you're not having it with anything extra, like bread).

What authorities do I even report this to? Bastet?

[-] ValiantDust@feddit.org 18 points 2 months ago

Sekhmet seems more appropriate, though depicted with a lion's head not a housecat's.

Sekhmet acted as the vengeful manifestation of Ra's power, the Eye of Ra. Sekhmet is said to breathe fire, and the hot winds of the desert were likened to her breath. She is also believed to cause plagues. (Wikipedia)

She would sort that shit out.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 10 points 2 months ago

Report submitted.
I marked it as urgent.

(Yes! I couldn't remember the name & I wasn't sure anyway, but I knew Bestet was depicted as kitty so in my laziness of not wanting to do one single search I went with the safer choice)

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 months ago

CPS. Cat protection agency

* Gathered concern *

[-] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 2 months ago

So I'm a total pet-drug-pusher. I had a cat who seriously jonesed for breve (half-and-half) so I gave her a milliliter a day. My dog today needs peanut-butter like it's the ambrosia of the gods. It's a small treat every once in a while.

Out of respect for your friends of fur, allowing them a small dose might enhance their enjoyment of life a bit, especially since we are social beings who enjoy sharing a meal with each other. And unlike half-and-half, cats can actually digest tuna.

[-] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 22 points 2 months ago

My cats are dum though. I'll crack open a can of tomatoes and they freak out thinking it's dinner time. I let them sniff it, but then they look confused.

Same when I'm getting some Tums. They think it sounds like greenies.

[-] VinnyDaCat@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Same when I’m getting some Tums. They think it sounds like greenies.

Can relate. All my cats think my pill bottles are the same as the treat shaker. I always end up giving them a treat afterwards because I feel bad.

I trained my cat to eat plain chicken by tearing off little pieces and any time he didn't go for it I'd make sure he watched me eat a little. Do that, offer him the other half of the piece I ate, repeat a few times. Now he knows whenever there is a new food if I'm trying to give it to him and I take little bites that he should try it too. It's a lot of fun

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

who seriously jonesed for breve (half-and-half)

Doesn't compute, what does this mean?

[-] nelly_man@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

"Jones" is an American slang word meaning to be addicted to something, so "jonesing" for something means to crave something very strongly, and generally very vocally.

"Breve" is a coffee drink that is commonly made with half-and-half, which is a product that is equal parts cream and milk. I assume that people have taken to using the term to refer to half-and-half itself, but I've not personally heard that.

So the sentence is saying that their cat was addicted to half-and-half and would act like a junkie doing anything to get their next fix.

I remember eating a can of tuna in front of my cat, she stood on her hind legs and emitted the slowest plaintive meow ever. She must have win awards for best begging kitty ever.

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 21 points 2 months ago

Better sleep with your eyes open tonight

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

That's actually less scary than I was thinking. Thought it was gonna be a cat shitting in someone's mouth. I'd rather have my soul stolen than that.

That movie was literally about the cat saving her life from a little troll monster that actually did steal children's breath.

The one on the right looks priceless

You monster

[-] Spaniard@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

The Geneva Conventions forbade this.

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 12 points 2 months ago

I used to have a cat that generally wouldn't beg for food unless I made something with tuna. Even then he wouldn't beg while I was making it but I would find him sitting on my desk in the other room (where I ate) waiting for me when I got there like "hey whats that".

[-] caut_R@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

The right one definitely has the look of disbelief lol

[-] Illuminostro@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Any experienced cat owner knows your cat is plotting to kill you. After all, that's what cats do. If you eat the delicious fish in front of them, it just accelerates your demise
