Corned Beef


Is there just one thing your cats will not eat? As I have probably told you all hundreds of times little Alfie will eat absolutely anything including he is given, scrounge or steal, bits of curry, Italian, Chinese, cake etc etc etc (all with no ill effect) so therefore you would think he would love corned beef as both my other cat and dog both do but no, will not touch a morsel. I would love to know why.

Re: Corned Beef


I think corned beef is horrible too, so you cant blame the poor boy!

I havent found anything Oli doesn't like yet. The most unusual thing he likes is probably chocolate mousse (we caught him licking the tub out after we had just ate it!!)

Re: Corned Beef


I have to agree there - corned beef is rank, your cat's got good taste LOL!!!

My 3 aren't too fussed by human food; occasional prawns, chicken and cheese and that's about it. Oh, and Balie likes poppadoms and doritos

I'd be careful with chocolate . . . I don't think it's particularly good for either cats or dogs (human chocolate that is)

Re: Corned Beef


Stop! Don't give your cat that chocolate!

"Where's the harm? My cat seems to enjoy chocolate and it's only a small piece."

Just because certain foods, such as chocolate, are enjoyed by humans and are perfectly safe for us, it does not mean they are suitable for cats. Chocolate contains chemicals which rarely cause problems for humans, but for cats and other domestic pets, these chemicals can, in rare cases, be deadly.

One problem is that some cats find chocolate very tasty and so it is important not to feed it to them, even the smallest piece, otherwise they may eat what you give them up to the point where it harms them.

Chocolate contains the compound theobromine which is a diuretic as well as a cardiac stimulant. This can cause the pet's heart rate to increase or it may cause the heart to beat irregularly, both of which can be dangerous for the animal.

Re: Corned Beef


All my cats love corned beef. They get treated to prawns once a week when we do our shopping. They rush straight to the fridge and wait there untill we give them some. They dont like any other fish though
