My (now deceased) kitty loved the meal of: - can of starkist tuna packed in water - one hard boiled egg - a small handful of the dry cat food. He loved this mix. It wasn't normal food, but a special treat. Gary |

When I was a lad in the 1960's, I had a collie named Randy. He ate a can of Kennel Ration dog food each day and I was the one that fed him. It smelled so darn good. One time I decided to try it. It was not a good thing. But Randy finished up my portion so it didn't go to waste. eheheh Gary |

But beyond that, perhaps Ming has a point when he snubs the food that smells good to me? -- Jean B. |

Nothing wrong with that, > is there? You just need to avoid a few things like onions and garlic. And don't go overboard on extra calories if your cat is overweight. I had a very lean cat who loved people food. His favorites were peas and mushrooms. He also ate canteloupe, any kind of pasta, rice, blue cheese dressing, any kind of cheese, lima beans, doritos, and bread. We had to keep bread products in the cabinet or microwave, or he would tear chunks out of the hamburger buns or whatever was available. He ate people food every day, and I think he waited to see what was for dinner and only ate cat food afterward to fill up. He was always lean and lived to 10 days shy of his 19th birthday, so it didn't harm him at all. Oh, he loved cheesecake too. I believe his motto was "I'll have what you're having." And he was the best remote microwave timer. He would sit in the kitchen when something was in the microwave, then come get me as soon as it beeped. We suspected this for awhile, and comfirmed it one day. He came to my while I was at the computer and pawed at my leg. I went to the kitchen, and my mom asked if Maynard had gotten me. She watched him run out of the room when the microwave beeped. And I was there only a minute later. Good stuff, Maynard! |

The pedantic '110g of this and 237g of that' doesnt appeal here. -- |

I'll reply civilly to your posts that have value, and not at all to your stalker posts. I don't feel the need to reply to your insults over my "obsession" with the healthfulness of foods. One of us cares about public health, and there are others who also feel that way. Likewise, there are those like you who consider such a concern to be overly pedagogical, even to the point of being "pedantic." I agree to disagree about which is preferable. > > John Kuthe... --Bryan |

Almost as much as trying to project the "white robes" image of "Look how much I know, and you could too if you were not the fool you are!" A large part of "public health" is psychological as well as physical health. Something that evidently escapes your intellect. John Kuthe... |
