My cat likes tomato sauce-do your pets like any weird food?

[Kathy in Cambridge]

We just polished off a pizza from one of my favorite local places (topped with tomoato sauce, pesto, fresh tomatoes, fresh mozz, and chicken. Reno was SCREAMING at me. Not for the chicken, though he wouldn't say no to that either. He LOVES tomato sauce. He just licked my pizza plate clean.

What weird people food do your pet love?

1. My cat likes beer...

He'll try to lick my lips if I'm drinking it. I poured it into a saucer and he went to town.

not a good idea!

26. mint leaves

[izzie]

43. Mine also likes popcorn. I had two that loved corn on the cob

I also had one that ate melons. I like the things at room temp. and the darn cat would just eat a big hole in it if I did not hide it.I also had a friend that gave her dog a joint and the dog loved it but I was wild. I thought the dog would die as it looked like it was having a fit.

3. Mine likes spicy foods.

Loves chili. Also likes potato chips.

[latebloomer]

4. Shrimp lo mein

Not just the shrimp, but the noodles!

[Kolesar]

5. Doggie loves spaghetti sauce

Asparagus, cauliflower, blueberries, snap peas, carrots, and aspirins. Her manners totally go away when we have pizza.

[koopie57]

6. We have a cat who is huge

about pounds and I have never ever seen him eat anything but sheetrock.

[Lisa]

8. the cat at our workplace loves popcorn

He will steal it out of the bag -- not even the buttered sort, either!

[jus_the_facts]

9. My kittencat looooves sweet tea....black olives/pepperoni...popcorn......

.....she tried to take off with a WHOLE piece o'Chruches chicken off my plate once....those are her favorites....but she'll try anything at least once!! :hi:

[Kathy in Cambridge]

10. Wow, she sounds like my Reno (black cat in sig line)

he loves salty food like olives and popcorn, and is very pushy when it comes to Italian food. We think he was an Italian kitty in a former life!

[sweetladybug]

11. I have a little weinnie dog and she'll eat anything if it has

ranch dressing on it.

[jus_the_facts]

31. LOL.....

[Guy Fawkes]

12. Mellon, human flesh, *my* blood....eom

[trag]

13. My little dog

likes raw potatoe and green peppers. Although, I really think he will eat anything put in front of him.

[VoteDemocratic2004]

14. I had a cat eat spicy pizza one time and then she dropped a litter

The spices did the trick and the babies dropped right out.

[kat21]

15. Carrots and apples

[BrotherBuzz]

16. My border collie is especially fond of...

cold Bar-B-Que grills.

[Mikimouse]

17. Vanilla ice cream...

The Pookster will not allow me to sit and eat an ice cream cone without joining me. I lick one side, and he licks the other.

[TexasProgresive]

18. ours like mayonaise

they will lick it off of noodles in noodle salad and lick the bowl clean. Cats we've had in the past would eat raw tomatoes, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Sasha abandoned his mate in standing heat to have a bite of a pb and J sandwich.

[texas1928]

19. One of ours likes the spaghetteoooos

juice, she begs til you finish and then that bowl is so clean you could put it back in the cabinet when she is done. Though her whiskers are ussually this orange color.

[Ohio Dem]

20. My sister had a dog that was nuts for cabbage.

She couldn't put any in her garden - the dog would get it if they didn't pay attention. Not just the cabbage, either. That dog loved fresh vegetables.

[pansypoo53219]

21. my new pair love my homemade beaanless chili

and just about anything else.
sybil even ate some celery.
but the older one, she gets HIGH on just about everything and i tested some dried flowering oregano and yes, she ate that with relish. catnip, parsley, fever-few. high off of any aromatic plant.
oh, and as the kittens are 11 months, i wiped some catnip juice on myself. the kittens just looked at it, nothing.

[AwakeAtLast]

22. I had a cat who could tell

the minute I opened up cream cheese. She would not let me get through a bagel without giving some to her. She was also very fond of bacon.

[TlalocW]

23. My ferret

Likes potato chips, banana chips, bananas, and peanuts. She also loves my jogging shoe inserts.

I had an orange tabby when I was in high school named Garfield, and I decided to see if he would eat lasagna one day - he did.

35. I love ferrets :)

How could you NOT love a face like that? :)

24. What beautiful kitties!

Coincidentally, my dogs just polished off the crust of the leftover pizza that I had for dinner. The little one, especially, went crazy for it.:9

They also love chicken and, especially, cheese. I just found out today that my 10 lb. wonder has to take thyroid medicine. I was worried about getting it into him, since he's so small that he's as difficult to pill as a cat. I told the vet that I can't even find his mouth, LOL! But I tried giving it to him in bits of cheese and he wolfed it down! The only problem is that the vet told me to eliminate cheese from his diet, since he's gained two pounds since I got him and that's a great deal for an 8 lb. dog!:spank:

My cocker spaniel was also extraordinarily fond of spaghetti sauce. I went through a Kraft Spaghetti Dinner period and, if I had that on the stove, she would refuse to eat her food unless I put a little of the sauce on it.:-)

[StClone]

25. My cat eats cactus

Nibbles around the spines to the succulent parts.

[sherrem]

27. When I was a kid

we had a cat that had to eat a Little Debbie Swiss Cake Roll every night before he went to bed.

[Cybergata]

28. One of my cats loves granola.

I had a cat who loved blue corn chips and broccoli. My three girls won't eat raw meat given them, but the two boys go bananas over any kind of meat.

:hippie:

[ariesgem]

29. Cornbread

AND Tweenkies. He can't wait to get to the cream!

[No2W2004]

30. Barkley LOVES pasta

His favorite dog food is Little Champions beef stew with little bone shaped pasta.

[TOhioLiberal]

32. My dog loves...

apple cores, pizza crusts, potato chips, french fries. And he loves to eat the left over cheese and sauce after my husband has a mexican pizza from T. Bell.

[Interrobang]

33. OMG, your cat likes tomato sauce too?!

Which one, your black one? My black cat Nero loves tomato sauce! Every time I get pizza, he goes nuts. One time I made the mistake of leaving a half-full pizza box where he could get it, and I came back later to find he'd pushed all the toppings into a pile in the corner of the box, and licked almost all of the tomato sauce off the half-pizza that was left!

[Shanty Oilish]

34. It's what they won't eat that scares me. It's chicken. Or...is it?

We've got 3 cats. Unrelated (to one another). Now and then I buy a barbecued chicken from the supermarket. It's got those yummy seasonings on the outside, but otherwise it's your basic chicken. We humans eat it.
The cats won't touch it. I don't mean the skin with the paprika and onion and whatever. I mean the hundred-percent chicken parts, dark meat, light meat, fat, lean---they want nothing to do with it.
Naturally I wonder whether we should be eating a bird that 3 cats passed up.

[LTR]

36. I feed my cats and dog nothing but pet food

I very rarely feed them table scraps, unless something hits the floor, then the dog's on it.

I prefer higher-end pet food, like Science Diet or Iams, but my cats do like the Whiskas pouches for their wet food supplement.

Feeding pets people food is a bad idea. It can be very unhealthy, and encourages begging and other obnoxious behavior. Not to mention my dog throws up almost everything but normal dog food.

[LynneSin]

37. My cats won't touch anything that isn't cat food

Maybe it reminds them of the days when they use to have to forage from dumpsters for their food. Heck they even get fussy over the cat food they eat!

[peacefreak]

38. Lucy likes Peeps

and dried fruit. Not together, though!

[baldguy]

39. Frank's hot sauce

I spilled some on the floor once, and the dog licked it up. Then she sat down and gave me that "can I have some more?" look.

[jukes]

40. RationalRose

many of mine are ferals, y lived primarily from dumpsters until i acquired them. some fav's:

BBQ chips
pizza
freedom fries

i also have a non-feral (p/up as kitten dropt off 1 hour before i found her) who loves to "fling" strawberries/cherries by the stem parts, like david v goliath slings. she gets some impressive ballistics!


give that spot nose a spot smooch for jukes, pls!

[ProfessorGAC]

41. You Betcha!

My dog will eat any vegetable, cooked or raw, except for raw cauliflower & celery. (He spits it out like it feels weird in his mouth or something.) He will eat salad WITH DRESSING on it!

Also, when my wife cooks anything italian, he will ALWAYS eat the pieces of garlic bread first. Meat or clam sauce can wait! The garlic bread is always the first thing he gulps down.

One day, i scallopinied some veal, and my wife made sauce and noodles, and asparagus. The little bit that was left on our plates was combined. The dog ate the bread, then the asparagus, then the meat, then the noodles. Yes, he ate the asparagus before he ate the meat!

One of our dearly departed kitties used to be a tomato sauce nut, too! Actually two of them, now that i think of it. So, i can certainly understand what you're talking about.

42. Spanish olives

He just loves them....he doesn't eat them actually, but licks them and bats them around like toys. He'll also lap up the brine if you put some in a saucer for him.
