Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / November 2006Meowmie Dearest
If you've seen the biographical film about Joan Crawford and her kids, called Mommy Dearest, you'll remember the scene where Joan tries to force young Christina to eat rare steak. Christina refuses and Joan makes her sit at the table for a long time, then puts the meat away in the fridge to serve again for breakfast. Finally as the meat is starting to spoil Joan relents and gives her daughter something else to eat. I thought of this today when I saw that the contents of a can of wet food I put out for the cats last night was still in the bowl, and instead of cleaning the bowl out and feeding something else, I just left it there. The food in question has been a favorite of the clowder here for a long time, and suddenly they simply will not touch it.

I woke up to the same thing; and I bought the Fancy Feast as a treat for them. It's not a do-over. kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini > > If you've seen the biographical film about Joan Crawford and her kids, > > called Mommy Dearest, you'll remember the scene where Joan tries to [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > kili > -- Heh. Usually this happens when I buy at least a dozen cans of their favorite kind. Then they sniff, look up at me, and say "Oh. We don't like this kind anymore." Sherry I've not seen the movie, but did read the book so many years ago. It sounded to me like Miss Crawford had a serious case of manic depressive. Not to mention just being a cantankerous person. What's sad, is that the people we think "have it made" have sometimes no sense of personal accomplishment. So, they rant and rage. Poor folk like me might have a better sense of worth.

There is a possibility that batches of the same kind of food are different in smell and taste.

I swear mine can read the price tags, and refuse to eat any one-time favorite if I didn't pay top dollar for it! > Finicky b@$t@rd cats!!! > Pat wrote: >> The food in question has been a favorite of the clowder here for a long [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > tags, and refuse to eat any one-time favorite if I didn't pay top dollar > for it! No, this food came from the same store and was the same price it has been for the last couple of years at least. They used to practically fight over the stuff, and they just left it alone until it spoiled this time. I've got two more cans of it in the cupboard, I will take it back and exchange for something else.

That is risky! If you do that, I bet, they do want absolutely no other food than this one.
