Cats' eating habits
 

My friend's cat likes eating cobwebs. Has anyone else heard of this?

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

my cat eats moths, spiders and all horrid stuff. One of my dogs eats spiders and his face swells up.
My cat likes drinking coffee, my other dog loves tea.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Cats will eat anything in sight (except what you want them to eat). Them vomit it in the most inconvenient place. FACT.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

V true.

The cat that likes cobwebs also v much likes brassicas, she is also v fat.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Added to this, ours brings back little animals that it's found, and subsequently killed.

I think it's trying to help us feed the snake personally....

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Either that or trying to prove itself helpful, before someone feeds it to the snake. ;)

Hey, I don't like how that sounded like an accusation!!

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

I like cats with a spicy sauce, although theres not much meat on them :(

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

yawn

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Wasn't me! :p

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Not a fan of donner kebabs then? :-P

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

lol

I even feed the cats around here to fatten them up a little :rolleyes: before getting the rifle on them ;)


















Of course I'm only joking ;) Although I do feed the cats that come to my back door lol

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Maria's cat likes a greek cake thats all sweet and syrupy, I dunno what its called...galombrama or something

Re: Cats' eating habits

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

you should be grateful for the free fertiliser

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

So far had a slowworm and a budgie through the cat flap. Although rats are their favourite. Yet they turn their nose up at cheap cat food and will only eat "oh so expensive" aka "oh so fishy". I have to confess that cobwebs are a new one to me, neither of ours are quite that stupid. Though they are pretty thick.

My tolerance for airgun jokes is pretty thin given I've already spent a good deal of money (and kitty spent a good deal of pain and suffering) getting pellets removed.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

it was not a joke

HTH

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

LMFAO :smt044

I can appreciate cats in some areas are a real pest, the ones around here are alright though.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

I hope for your sake it was, because if it wasn't it says something about you as a person. In the long run you'll find that life doesn't reward cruelty and sadism.

Let me put it another way - have you ever actually shot someone's pet? Or are you just trying to bait the peace and love hippy into a fight?

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Interestingly there is a strong link between abuse animals and violence against people.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

I dont think anyone would admit to it on an open forum.

But I can tell you now, people do.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

can you class somthing that you let out and rome(?) the streets allday a pet? whats the point?

get a life........... get a dog

;)

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Buy them some catnip teabags from Whittards, chuck them on the floor and then watch what ensues.... is hilarious!!! :D

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Sounds fun! I've got catnip spray which is brilliant!

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

+1

Almost as funny as seeing them stoned (not with stones obviously)

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

If you're going to shoot cats do NOT use a non-FAC air rifle, they aren't powerful enough for a humane kill.

Use a water pistol, plastic BB gun or something that won't cause anything but a bit of a shock. Or use a shotgun or airgun with about 20ft lbs and do it right.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

I've just been playing whip the house flies with the tea towel and then feed them to my dog(sorry the cat wern't interested)

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Our kitten likes my Bud beer! It also goes absolutely nuts when it's just drunk some kitty milk (why?).

Ours isn't even slightly interested in cat-nip, tis annoying cuz I bought spray and toys with the stuff in!!

Would lend ya mine Hovis but my dad gets grumpy if he hasn't shot anything in a while!!

I know the man and he's probably not lying!

Violence seems to sort out most problems!

Don't understand that. I got nothing against being violent to people when necessary but would never willingly hurt a defenceless pet!

Is there anyway to get them interested in the stuff??

The gun my dad's got hasn't failed to kill ANYTHING that we've shot (except 1 rat that we only managed shoot in the ar5e!) though it did cost the best part of £300. Quite a few rocks and shrubs have also been killed!!!

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

No, you see cats have a life, which is why they don't need to sit around waiting to be told what to do......

I had a cat that liked rice pudding, cheese and kept a keen eye on our goldfish.:nemo:

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

my mums old cat used to sit in front of the cooker, licking its lips, as she fried onions......it knew she was cooking chilli....the cat loved chilli, also it like Picallilly, you know that yellow stuff you put on salad or sarnies.


My cats love catnip..one gets stoned of its face, and the other one goes nuts, it'd be up the top of the curtains given half the chance!

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Phil; get a cat-nip plant

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

A stoned pussy eh:smt081 I can't say I have ever got my pets high or drunk, not to mention my parents would have a fit if I did!

Our cats Jess loves Cheese and Chicken and when she was kitten would try to run peoples using claws, in a effort to get it.

Chance the other cat, is very fussy and doesn't like any food like that, when she was younger she would regular bring small furry things for us, she once brough in me a live a mouse at about midnight, I spent ages looking for the dam thing for her to find, to them go out side rip its head off and eat, then come back expecting to jump on the sofa for attention gross:smt103

As for dog he mostly eats anything, however he may may puke if its something he is not use to. If I drop soemthing on the floor, I call him he normally eats, or the cat might. The dog is kinda dumb but cute.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

My baby kitteh licked up the rest of my Reggae Reggae sauce after I finished my toastie yesterday then spent 5 minutes on the floor with his tongue hanging out. He'll be poohing fire later hehe, poor bugger.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Maria's cat just had some of my snickers

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Mostly it is male cats that love catnip, females ignore it. And if yours is male, then he is one of the few that it just doesnt register with....:?

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

We got chicken and cheese cat treats for ours. One of the cats decided that they were her absolute favourite thing and demanded them every night. Then she suddenly decided that she didn't want them any more and that catnip drops were her favourite. Then for the last few days she's been refusing to eat the catnip drops and wants the chicken and cheese treats again.

The other cat demands fish for breakfast. Give him fish and he'll ignore it and go eat our artificial plants instead.

Strange creatures, cats.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

I luff cats.

I miss mine.

I'd get another but I don't want even that little bit of responsibility. She used to eat grass and then come indoors to barf it back up again. :lol:

Still, I luff cats.

Our last dog had some odd eating habits. Such as eating his own barf. He even ate my neice's poo when she was a baby. That was something I'll never forget and never stop laughing about.

Animals are great. :)

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

A past cat of mine used to sit on the arm of the sofa when you ate crisps. It would paly catch with crisp in your hand before you got it in your mouth, if you weren't careful he used to try putting his head in the packet!
He used to bring rubber gloves home instead of mice! A cat running down the street with the middle finger of a glave in its mouth and the rest wagglin about under his tum was a really funny sight, thing is he was so proud of himself. He also used to play fetch with balls of paper, and he'd bring it back like a dog.

As for fuss pots;, my fluff ball Angus is quite partial to posh chicken cat food, mmmmmm nice mummy feeds me well, but, Kaspar my white cat turns his nose up, and would rather be fed cat biscuits.
Angus is the mouser, Kaspar just bird watches, very rarely brings them home, he may occasionally bring in mice, but they are always alive, whilst Angus always brings em home headless

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

One of the GF's cats brought in a mouse the other day. The great hunter was very pleased with himself. It was clockwork. Somewhere nearby, another cat is crying.

Re: Cats' eating habits
 

Was that do then? Do they eat it??? :confused:

Yup, male. He doesn't give a monkeys about his cat-nip filled toy or the cat-nip spray!
