Yeah. Lots of them. To be precise, every single super premium canned
food out there. They eat it the first time, then ignore it. I'm sure
they would love Friskies if we bought it for them...

Are there any foods your cat detests?


Our two will not touch canned cat food, and up until two days ago would not
eat any people food either. With the exception of shrimp and raw tuna.

They would be happy to live on a diet of dry Purina Deli-Cat.

Given a choice I wouldn't let it in the house.

Compromise is we mix it half and half with Nutro Maxi Cat and they like the
combo fine.

As seems to ever be the case if you say "my cat always" or "my cat never".
Two days ago Rosie decided to start sampling some of the treats the dog
gets. And now loves the sliced turkey the dog gets as a treat. This
morning, Jake decided to go over to the dark side as well and was eating the
turkey almost as fast as Rosie was. Rosie also had a go at a bit of
left-over steak yesterday. Next week - who knows.

It's not that they detest anything in particular, though most of
the brood like one kind of people food and will turn up their little
noses at another. The trick that most of them have in common is
playing with their food if they get anything 'chunky in gravy'. What
they'll do is lick up the gravy while leaving the little chunks on the
plate.

O J had some very interesting things to say
about Offensive foods:

It's not that they detest anything in particular, though most of
the brood like one kind of people food and will turn up their little
noses at another. The trick that most of them have in common is
playing with their food if they get anything 'chunky in gravy'. What

Felix does that, which is why I don't buy that kind any more [I found
it frustrating to be throwing so much away]. The mushy kind, he
generally Hoovers right down. ;-)
