Tea? Watch out she'll be asking for Earl Grey or Lapsang Souchong soon

My old she cat (now gone to the great cat basket in the sky) was known as the Takeaway Queen. You only had to appear with Chinese or Indian and she virtually fought you for the foil containers.
Pineapple, curry sauce, egg fried rice, mushroom, it all set off the scrabble for the dishes and the begging miaow. As she lived to be 21 I don't think it did her any harm.

This thread has had me crying with laughter!!! These are some of my little madam Amber's fave "human" foods\;
Any type of yogurt, custard, cheese in any form, including macaroni cheese!, the coating off cheese puffs but not the actual puffs!, sweet and sour sauce, bolognese sauce, parsley sauce, gravy, eggs, bacon, ham.....the list just goes on and on! Basically, if it's anything I'm eating (specially if it's out of a tin, cos the sound of the tin opener has her in the kichen in a flash!), then she wants some....and she usually gets what she wants!

She's just had a few forkfuls of Rogan Josh curry.

I wonder if she'll have ring sting later?

My cat is very partial to bread pudding.

My childhood cat loved lots of odd things.

She had to have a little bowl of tea every morning.

She also loved:

Wotsits and Cheeslets [she'd lick all the cheesy stuff off)
Coleslaw
Birthday cake
Carrots
Plus she'd get a taster of all meat and fish that was being coooked.

She lived until the ripe old age of 18

My Amber has no interest in human food, I always used to put down a little bit of what I was cooking before it was seasoned etc.. and she'd never touch it (this goes for lamb, beef, chicken, turkey, tuna, salmon, cod )

She does love a few types of wet food though and goes bananas for them. Also she loves Whiska's chicken and cheese treats. If you ask her "do you want treats" she knows what you mean and is up on the counter mewing like a maniac before I even get into the kitchen

My cat is not interested in ANY food in our house except his cat food and tuna. The only other thing he does is try to lick oil out of the pan when I'm cooking and he knows the sound of me opening my Vaseline and tries to eat that too. He is one fussy fella.

Candy liked crisps, Marley liked chocolate. Tabitha liked curry and pizza, especially if it had green peppers and mushrooms on it.

Lola doesn't have any weird tastes but she can hear a tin of tuna being opened from anywhere in the house. She absolutely loves cat milk and goes daft when you lift a bottle. Wee Martha (4m old) will steal anything she can get. Odd things she's eaten so far include some curly kale, peas, rice crispies (dry spillage), pancake, toast and bread. She's also licked the oil from the pan as I'm preparing dinner. I have to shut her out o the kitchen now or she's in at everything.

My boy loves bits of chicken vindaloo if I suck most of the curry off, but not all of it.

My cat will eat almost anything but he does love his veg!

I thought I would resurrect this thread as I have a question.

Is it safe for cats to eat hard boiled eggs? I was making myself an egg sandwich this evening and Archie my kitten was going mental for the egg and shell. I didn't give him any, but if it is safe for him to eat I might boil one for him next time.

Mine like:[LIST][*]raw eggs[*]sauce from baked beans (not the beans though)[*]ice cream[*]activia - cat no 1[*]rice pudding - cat no 2[*]roast chicken (duhhh)[*]broccoli[*]salt and vinegar pringles[*]red wine -cat no 1 (licked off my fingers - I don't fill their bowls with it)[*]anything cream based[*]mice[*]swallows[/LIST]
I think they are a bit like people with individual tastes.

The Cat of Doom will eat anything I'm eating, but isn't too keen on cat food. Her favourite at the minute is chips from the chippy. She eats all the little bits that I don't like. Good job she doesn't get them often Can't leave unwashed plates around or she'd lick them clean, or cups that have had tea/coffee in them, even black coffee. Seems to like crunchy food, as she'll eat crisps and fresh veg if it falls on the floor, especially things like lumps of carrot. Think it may be because she was a stray before I got her. She's an expert at raiding bins for stuff.

(She also prefers drinking out of the toilet to drinking from her bowl. Have to use bicarb to clean it- too scared to use bleach incase there's any left in the bowl and she gets in there)

As long as she doesn't start belching, downing a few beers and switch on to Men & Motors channel, you'll be Ok

Our 18 year old cat is pretty fussy and yet she goes crazy when I start eating a pack of Walkers Ready Salted crisps !!???

Mine has a weird penchant for scraps of beetroot.

Ziggy eats
- Cheese n onion hula hoops
- Greek non fat yoghurt
- He goes NUTS for dominoes pizza
- Oatmeal and raisin cookie
- Milk
- Chocolate
- Any type of meat, apart from bloody expensive parma ham which I wasted by putting a bit on the floor for him, he sniffed it and walked off!!!
- Any type of fish

Pretty much anything really, hes a pig! Typical man lol

One of mine loves lemon buttercream icing, whenever I make any he basically sits on my feet until he gets some.
Another cat used to love chilli beef.
And yet another one would drink coffee straight from the mug if you left it within his reach!

our suki loves her human grub - she was deado upstairs the other day but darn me didnt she bolt downstairs when she heard the fridge open

You might want to google that, there are lists of stuff they shouldn't eat, mainly vegetable derived, chocolate is one of the worst it contains alkaloid toxins which aren't harmful to humans but can be dangerous to cats, dogs too. Onions is another.

Eggs are animal protein so they'd be fine, I imagine.

My cats loved cheese, and also went crazy for chocolate even though it was bad for them. You only had to rustle the wrapper and they'd appear like a shot, eyes glazed over...

My gorgeous boy likes to eat salted peanuts. Also when I open the cupboard below the fish tank to feed the fish he will bolt into the cupboard and attack the fish flake tub until I let him have a pile of flakes.

He's a terrible scrounger, and most evenings when we're eating at the dinner table, he will try and nick stuff from my son's plate.

Our cat also eats anything but I always assumed that was because she steals scraps from the dog's bowl - she has plenty of her own food, but hates the idea of the dog eating. She has always eaten first as well, and when we had 2 dogs, it was a common sight to see this tiny 3 legged moggy eating out of the dogs' bowl, in a leisurely fashion whilst the dogs literally queued up, waiting patiently for her to finish. Our dog has always been fed nothing but raw meat and table scraps, so the cat gets to eat a huge variety of stuff - pizza, bread and butter, raw eggs I also put down for the dog - you name it.
