Strange tastes




Dylan's decided he wants to try several foods, don't know if they would cause him harm or not

The foods he wants to try are:

1) Bananas
2) Butter
and 3) Jam



Will any of those foods do him any harm?

Re: Strange tastes


If butter in moderation would harm a cat, Patches would never have made it to 20! She was normally a well behaved cat, but would steal butter at any chance she got.

I have no idea about jam or bananas; don't suppose a small taste would do any harm ....

Re: Strange tastes


My cats would clean the butter off a piece of toast! They loved it!

Poli love Poddadoms. Especially the spicy ones. Frankie played and had ambitions for green chillis. Funny my girls didn't seem to have strange food ambitions as far as I remember.

Oh cheese was universal.

Careful though Frankie poisoned himself on anti-freeze (or so the ver thought) and apparently that tastes sweet, so I wouldn't indulge sweet tastes.

I just had a thought. Butter on my fingers, I wonder if Koko would go for that!

Worth a try! Also ham, I got my very wary stray to finally accept some from my fingers...a real milestone for her!

Re: Strange tastes


Koko will eat treats from my fingers, on my lap. Not to touch her though. I know time will do it.
