Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2005Persia goes nuts (again)
Okay, not really. But she got the zoomies and wanted outside because I did something rather unprecendented. I don't normally use the BBQ grill when it is cold but the mothership told her I was doing so. To make matters worse... I had this shark steak in the freezer from a couple of months ago; it was inexpensive and I eat as much fish as I can afford. You can see where this is going, right? I wouldn't let Persia out with me; it's 38F! But then - gasp! I had the nerve to bring the cooked fish inside! OMG slap me! http://community.webshots.com/photo/74365720/261081170nRSLCB Persia is actually very good... I just make her *seem* evil when it comes to fish. (Okay, she IS evil when it comes to fish, except she hates canned tuna.) I adore fish - except raw fish, don't try to change my mind - but this is the first time I've cooked a shark steak. Persia also got upset because the smell of grilling shark apparently attracted that neighborhood cat who is allowed to run loose. So Persia knocked over my African Violet in an attempt to chase it away and then came to me indignant with a huge puffy tail meowing urgently at me, "That cat is gonna get the fish!". Nope, Persia; she has cat mitts, not oven mitts :) Jill <-- who did cave and give her a little bit; she loved it and so do I; and for under $5 including the steamed in foil new potatoes and brussels sprouts (from frozen) I have a meal for 2 days. hehehehe When I clicked on the link and saw the picture of the fish, I half expected to see a kitty paw in the shot! Kristi > hehehehe > > When I clicked on the link and saw the picture of the fish, I half > expected to see a kitty paw in the shot! > > Kristi LOL nope, I put her bit in her food dish! Jill Well, of course you did, like the proper slave you are! :) I cooked salmon last week and Mischief was going NUTS. But I didn't give her any, because the last time I did she make a VERY SMELLY deposit in the litterbox. Kristi > Well, of course you did, like the proper slave you are! :) > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Kristi Oh dear. She went to take a nap so I'll have to see if she does a smelly in the litterbox later. Thankfully I scoop it every day :) Jill That looks yummy and I don't even much like shark. Then again I'm guessing there are several types of edible shark and I've only tried it once. Jo > Okay, not really.

Then again I'm > guessing there are several types of edible shark and I've only tried > it once. > > Jo Lots of things look yummy and don't necessarily turn out to be :) I bought it because it was on sale for about $3 for a 1 lb. steak. This one was a Mako. I'd had grilled swordfish years ago and the texture of this appeared it would be much the same. I was right about that; more like a beef steak than fish (which was fine). It was tasty. Probably won't buy it again any time soon but it was a fun experiment. Jill >> Okay, not really.

Can't blame Persia for wanting that. ;)  SignatureCheryl Looks yummy Jill, Mako is also very nice smoked. I try to eat one or two fish meals a week since being diagnosed diabetic just before Christmas.

Hi Lois. How are you doing with your diabetes? If you ever want to ask advice or just talk, my inbox is always open. I have type I and I imagine you have type II, which I don't know as much about, but still, if you need a shoulder and 35 years of experience with this thing, give me a shout. SignatureMarina, Frank and Nikki marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi Pics at http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/frankiennikki/ and http://community.webshots.com/user/frankiennikki Hi Marina, Yes I do have type2 diabetes, I think I am doing OK, I go back to my Dr in mid Feb. Sometimes I feel a bit isolated and without support (my husband of just 12 months has been great) Food is sometime a problem, I just hope I have the right diet!! I have lost 11kilo's so far. Thanks for your offer of a shoulder, I will take you up on that.

Say it ain't so. The fish looks delicious. And the orange or lemon slices, very classy. But brussel sprouts? An overwhelming flavor unless cooked to death? > tuna.) I adore fish - except raw fish, don't try to change my mind - but > this is the first time I've cooked a shark steak. I eschew raw fish after reading about parasites and other unmentionables. I used to love sushi but just cannot eat the stuff worrying whether the chef kept the fish in the freezer long enough to kill the parasites but not too long to harm the taste. > to me indignant with a huge puffy tail meowing urgently at me, "That cat is > gonna get the fish!". Nope, Persia; she has cat mitts, not oven mitts :) Is she missing some teeth? When I look at her yawning, I expected to see some long sharp teeth. Still, she is a very pretty feline. All nice one color. Unlike mine who has a few splotches of black on her white and looks like an alley cat. But is very good with strangers and does not claw them. Me, she claws and bites. Thanks a lot. > and for under $5 including the steamed in foil new potatoes and brussels > sprouts (from frozen) I have a meal for 2 days. So it was brussel sprouts. Okay. A little sulfur is good I guess. >> http://community.webshots.com/photo/74365720/261081170nRSLCB > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > So it was brussel sprouts. Okay. A little sulfur is good I guess. Oh Brussel Sprouts go well with just about anything; ESPECIALLY fish! kili >> http://community.webshots.com/photo/74365720/261081170nRSLCB > > Did you really serve the fish with brussel sprouts?

The sprouts were very tender and not at all overwhelming (but then, I love them). > Is she missing some teeth? When I look at her yawning, I expected to > see some long sharp teeth. Nope, she's not missing any teeth. She just has very dainty fangs :) Still, she is a very pretty feline. All > nice one color. Thank you! She actually has faint black rings around her tail.
