By weird I mean outside of regular cat diet, things like cornflakes, ketchup or banana bread (these are real examples from my and my friends' cats).
Aged white cheddar and parmesan. He won't touch any orange Cheeses but anything aged he is all about it. He is a kitty with refined tastes. 🧀🐈
My cat will have the junky orange cheeses. We have to call out that the crinkly sound is the sound of human(intended) cheese and not cat(intended) cheese or she's in the kitchen and highly interactive.
tortilla chips, mayonnaise, and french fries (esp mcdonalds). though these days he'll sneak a bite of literally anything he can find.
The amazon packing tape.
It has a flavour!!
My oldest cat eats anything you leave on the table, except citrus and after that he cleans the stove by licking it. He has a nutrient absorbtion problem, so he just barely keeps above minimum weight.
My former oldest, now deceased cat really liked black olives and would also eat green ones.
Poor cat! I hope you don't like onions and garlic in your food.
Yes and yes. I also use a hefty amount of chili sauces.
I try not to leave anything for them to scavenge, but they still manage to find something.
btw. I have a theory that cats are immune to capsaicin.
Empty sunflower seed shells. Straight up cracking them, despite me blocking it. Also zucchini boiled with tomato sauce. One fervent attempt at a watermelon slice, munching down half of it.
Mine loves the bottom of a bowl of cereal.
tortilla chips and popcorn, only human foods she'll eat...
Ranch dressing, plain white rice.
Olives, corn, Taco Bell hot sauce.
One of mine likes chewing on wires to electrical devices. He used to do it only occasionally, but at some point he got the hint that I'm shooing him away when he does it and now he'll start whenever I'm at the computer and he's upset I'm not giving him adequate attention. He stops by and stands up against the chair to let me know he wants attention, and if I explain to him that I'm working on something and you'll need to wait, he'll immediately move to chewing at the wires.
This along with the fact that he's more interested in me the second I start talking on my phone means I have to leave the room absolutely any time I want to answer or make a phone call.
I love him and he might have the happiest disposition of any cat I've met, but he's really an asshole sometimes. He pounces me when I'm sleeping sometimes too which can really hurt if his nails get me.
A carpet
Corn and peanuts. Either of those might as well be cat treats.
Anything with cheese flavored powder. He'll lick that stuff off sun chips, Doritos, Cheetos, etc
Oat milk and nutritional yeast. And he barely shows interest in any other food we eat; not meat, not even wet cat food.
We're flabbergasted!
You eat wet cat food!?
Edit: Hi Charlie Kelly, nice to meet you
I saw that joke coming when I wrote it but was too lazy to rephrase 🤣
I'm glad you left it. Gave me a good laugh
Phone charger cords.
Last one: keyboard
Cat food probably
Cookies! He's not interested in salmon, ham, cheese, tuna, or any of the usual things. But you have a chocolate chip cookie and he's in your face until you give him some. He's not allowed the chocolate, and I don't think that's what he wants, he just loves the sweet beige American diet.
My cat didn't have a particular food, he just wanted anything I was eating. One time he caught me off guard as I put a piece of chocolate (dairymilk oreo bar) to my mouth and took a big old chomp out of it.
😱 I hope your kitty was ok after that!
Popadoms. If there’s any left after curry night he will search them out and eat the lot
