What is wrong with the boys?
Basho and Issa, that is. I stopped at the market on the way home from
work and noticed they had an "all natural, no nitrites or preservatives" ham on sale. I thought I'd get a treat for the kids, so I got a few slices of said natural ham. Rufous almost knocked me over as I was dividing the ham on the counter among several bowls and Maya would not stop yowling about the yummyness to come. I put the bowls down and retreated a few feet for my own safety. Basho and Issa smelled the ham and proceeded to leave the kitchen. What is wrong with them? Has anybody ever met a cat that did not like ham? I think Xoxo didn't eat any either. -- Victor M. Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

Has anybody ever met a cat that did not like ham? I think Xoxo didn't eat any either. Maybe they want their preservatives? I've never tried to give my cats ham, but I eat hot dogs sometimes, and Roxy drives me insane trying to get some. But Licky has never been interested, and even Smudge is so-so about it. I expect their reactions would break down the same way to ham, too. -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

Have you forgotten, the Kitty Code doesn't allow them to actually *admit* to enjoying something special that you gave them. But if you put some finely diced ham in a dish on floor when you go to bed, in the morning that dish would have been scoured clean. |

But now that she's grown up, she'll only eat cat food - and only kibble for the most part. Her canned food experience is to lick juice off of it and let it sit until it dries up. Then it seems to be acceptable and she'll polish it off.... ^..^ Kathy and Woodgie |

"all natural, no nitrites or
preservatives" You just answered your own question, Take out all the "good stuff" and what is left. The cats knew all the good stuff had been removed!!! "Kathy" wrote in message ...

You're right. I forgot they hate super-premium, 95% pure meat, no grains foods. -- Victor M. Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

Has anybody ever met a cat that did not like ham? Actually mine have never shown much interest in it - or in ANY "people food", for that matter. I DID have one, once, who like fruit flavored yogurt, and another who drank half a glass of brandy fortified eggnog when it was left unguarded one Christmas. The ex-feral kitten I adopted from summer camp when I was a teenager liked popcorn, potato chips and ice-cream (along with ANYTHING that landed in his dish), but most of my feline companions have preferred cat-food. |
