I've discovered Mickey likes to eat spinach. So he got a little pile of it last night and he fully ate it all. May have to occasionally give him a treat of it, he always wants what we eat and it isn't harmful ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Fen is fond of Bok Choy. More Twinsie stuff?
Omg they must be siblings ๐
Does yours drool when he purrs?
No, not a drooler. Likes shiny things - trying to steal nose rings at 3am
Mickster doesn't mind my jewellery, but he loves to chew on plastic. I had to put lemon juice and the stop'n'grow (to stop chewing my nails) on my power cords lol. Also bites my monitors, phone, and laptop lol
Wood in this case. Nothing wood with corners is safe, tables, chairs, doors. The spray stuff seems to be helping. OCD meds did not!
Many moons ago, when Miss Seagoon was Baby Seagoon, I had a void called Mungo who loved corn on the cob. He also used to steal sips of drinks by dipping his paw into cups and glasses.
Melbcat likes pumpkin, sweet potato, peas and broccoli. Vegies are actually really good for cats
Edit: Oh and cooked carrots!
I'll have to try more with him, he snatched some spinach out of my hand before like a lil goblin haha
If you keep sowing a few seeds at regular intervals in a window box and pull off individual leaves you can have a steady supply of baby spinach
A long ago cat was obsessed with carrot greens. She behaved like they were triple strength catnip. So much drool and improbable spinal contortions.
