Is there anything she won't eat?

Cats aren't supposed to eat onions?

No, they aren't. Onions (and garlic) can be toxic to cats. There's
all sorts of info about what human foods cats (and dogs) shouldn't
eat. Chocolate is a biggie, too.

I knew chocolate was a no-no for dogs, but I didn't think that was true
for cats, also. (Never read that garlic and onions had any deleterious
effect - some of the pricier moist foods contain them, IIRC.)

Just one link as an example:

I was fortunate in that Persia never begged for people food. The only
exception was milk, but she only ever got a tiny drizzle of it and she
wasn't lactose intolerant.
