Sammy is too spoiled for a plate of people food. If I let her she'll
reach over and pick something off my plate to taste, but even when she
looks like she likes it won't eat if I get her her own plate. As far
as people food, she'll eat anything, except fruit, that I offer from
my plate (potatoe, carrots, even spinach) as long as it's a small bite
and I hold it for her, but nothing else. Her favorite seems to be
roast chicken - she'll eat all I offer. But even chicken is ignored if
put on her own plate - but not wasted as Little Bit will clean the
plate. They rarely eat people food, though, and Sammy is kept out of
the kitchen when I cook, as she wants to be up on the counter helping,
and I'm always afraid of her stepping on the stove.


Tabitha is much the same. She'll walk away from food that's offered to
her on her own plate, but will have a grand time helping her humans out
by sneaking bits from the human's plates. And *none* of our four would
even *consider* eating any sort of snack off the floor!
