Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / February 2006Leftovers
Tuesday Will had an upset tummy and vomited a couple of times. Yesterday he wouldn't eat, even though I could tell that he was recovered enough to be hungry. He'd just sort of taken food in disgust and couldn't be persuaded that eating was a good idea. I wasn't seriously worried because he did at least eat the low-cal treats I give him when I give him his Flovent, so I knew he wasn't too far from ready to eat his other food. Still, I was anxious, with visions of a TED visit and maybe having to syringe-feed him a time or two. Happily, this morning he ate normally, and has continued fine through the day, so that worry is over. But in my concern last night I tried a few things to see if I could tempt him. He accepted a little of the juice from the can of tuna that I opened, but none of the fish, so that went into the fridge. A little broth from a can of chicken-noodle soup didn't seem to make his kibble more attractive. That went into the fridge. This evening for supper I made the tuna into tuna salad for sandwiches, then heated up the chicken noodle soup, and we all had our choice of either or both. My mother has chuckled all evening about being reduced to eating the cat's leftovers.

I discovered today as I ate my Underwood chicken spread sandwich that IF (unimaginable to me, but you never know) Pearl was not eating well, that is something that could probablly bring her out of a coma. Have you ever seen a cat actual salivate and slobber at the same time, all the while with a glazed look of ecstasy in her eye? >This evening for supper I made the tuna into tuna salad for >sandwiches, then heated up the chicken noodle soup, and we all >had our choice of either or both.

Your story made me giggle! And, oh so true what we'll do for the furry masters.

My mother has chuckled all > evening about being reduced to eating the cat's leftovers. I'd even stopped about thinking of it like that. I do make tuna salad on the occasions I open a can for Molly as a treat. She likes to lick the can out after I take out the solid tuna. And that's the only time it occurs to me to make tuna salad. But we won't tell DH and the Grandboys that will we? Jo >I'd even stopped about thinking of it like that. I do make tuna salad on >the occasions I open a can for Molly as a treat.

If you start buying the kind the cat likes best, rather than what the rest of the family prefers, the secret might get out.

That's probably true! Cats seem to actually LIKE the kind with the "fishy" taste and smell. > Tuesday Will had an upset tummy and vomited a couple of times. > Yesterday he wouldn't eat, even though I could tell that he was [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > had our choice of either or both. My mother has chuckled all > evening about being reduced to eating the cat's leftovers. Lol! This is so funny. When I had some kidney failure dogs (difficult to find something that they would eat) I used to open all sorts of tins and cook bits of stuff they might fancy. I'd always try to make some sort of meal for myself from the bits they'd rejected so as not to waste it! It was all human food, I hasten to add. Tuna and scrambled egg on toast isn't too bad. If the combination looked too dire, the chickens seemed to like it anyway ;-) Tweed
