Ashton: Cats are obligate carnivores. That means we need to eat meat. This gives the humans this idea that we don’t need to eat potato chips, oatmeal, butternut squash soup or broccoli, and they call them species-inappropriate food. But they taste so good! What, you don’t eat broccoli? I eat it with a lot more enthusiasm than the average six-year-old at a dinner table.
Ashton: Like anything else, if I gets something, Newton thinks he is missing out. See that jealous look peering up at me from the shadows? Like he thinks I don’t know he’s down there! But this broccoli is all mine.
Newton: Can I have some, too? Really? *sniff sniff* Are you sure this is what she was eating, because it’s not what I expected, but… well, okay…..
Some of us around here will KILL Maim and TRAMPLE to get the various following items: corn, cheese, doritos, donuts, pie crust, pizza (all kinds), sweet potatoes, spuds, celery, kale, breakfast cereal (the junky kind), and of course whatever the peeps are having for dinner. Oh, and pineapple and other sundry fruitables.
My human likes to eat spicy food and I have asked to give it a try but she refuses! Maybe she is just selfish.
BROCCOLI? Oh BAST if its veggie, we dont even wanna SMELL it!
Hannah loves freshly cooked chicken and would really like to eat it several times a day but Lucy doesn’t care for any human food very much at all – occasionally she’s been known to eat a minute piece of chicken but nothing else!
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Our angel sisfur, Thelma, was a veggie cat. She especially liked the water left after Mom steamed the broccoli. Our angel brofur, Madison, had a strange passion for the brine from green olives, especially the garlic stuffed ones. Love these adorable photos.

Truffles hasn’t tried any veggies yet…I’d be curious to see if she would eat any!
Veggies ARE good for you! I love my squash and my spinach especially! And my sweet potatoes!
Mol Mol Newton…my sentiments exactly to mom…she has the most delish looking thing on her plate some times too. But somehow when the make it to my mouth they lose their appeal. I think she has a plate of rubbish on the table that she uses to treat me….
Hugs madi your bfff
oh we have some of those around here….cheese, olives (Mo loves those), Tim has bread issues….
I like romaine lettuce and V8, but I’ve never tried broccoli.
Delilah loves pizza and popcorn! Of course, she doesn’t get those very often — just the occasional bite every now and then 🙂
Don’t eat too much of that or you will “gas” everyone out! MOL
We really don’t eat much human food. We do love chicken and tuna though but not vegetables. So good for you kitties to eat your vegetables.
Have a wonderful Tuesday.
Annabelle is a butter monster. I only give it to her as a very occasional treat. VERY.
That looks strange! If you have some cream cheese then I would be interested!
Wow, that is incredible. We don’t eat greens except grass, but we like milk and a little ice cream and frosting 🙂
Did you taste the broccoli, Newton?
Carmine likes carrots, MOL!
Ewwww! That doesn’t look good but I’ve seen it listed in some of my grain-free kibble. I don’t know why. I don’t eat any of that stuff but I do love Chinese and Mexican food although the peeps won’t give me more than a sniff and even then they take all the sauce offa it.
Deer Ashton,
Um… are Cheetos species appropriate???
Love,
Waffles
I don’t like vegetables. There was carrots, beans and peas in the food I used to have. I used to throw them out of my bowl and leave them all over the floor.
My Angel Bobo used to LOVE broccoli!!!! Cody likes it too!
I’ve never tried broccoli, but I love to lick the corn chips and I like mayo. ~Wally
We eat meat that mum gives us. We don’t want the veg-etables.
Bird, feather, mouse, fur, broccoli….all good stuff….or so I’ve heard. Have you ever played with a hunk of broccoli stalk. It can be fun to bat around the kitchen or sink your teeth into.
carnivores, you say? does that mean I can’t ea…er…inspect the bread…or the oatmeal…or snack pies?!?

We think it is funny how Pierre wants to eat whatever you get offered…did he try some broccoli, Ashton?
We like cantaloupe, pineapple and peaches. I also like brussel sprouts. The kitty that came before was a pizza fanatic and would try to steal it from your plate! Mom said that was the only ‘naughty’ thing he did!
