I've had cats that liked all sorts of unlikely foods (including popcorn and potato chips). Some cats must be forcibly restrained from sharing your dinner (while you're still eating it), others will not even TOUCH "people" food. Persia loves cheese nips (crackers). And potato chips/crisps. She's not supposed to have any (I try very hard not to give her "people" food) yet she begs and begs. I sort of feel guilty if I have an occasional snack around her. She does recognize the sound of that bag opening! She doesn't care for seafood, which is a good thing since I love it and often cook it for myself. Jill |

Joy Well hey, when you're trying to prove a point the cat will do the exact opposite just to make you look foolish. I'm sure they do it on purpose. I didn't realize until recently Persia likes cooked cabbage. I was clutzy and dropped a piece on the floor. She scarfed it right up. If I purposely gave her a piece of cabbage she'd probably ignore it now. Jill |

Oh, we all like this one! Fine, I'll buy a case. Guess what. |
