They are most aggressive when I eat spaghetti, anything creamy or chips. They will form a circle around us and wait. Then Shelley, the most forward one, will attempt to dip her paw on to my plate when I am not looking, especially if I am eating
spaghetti--her favourite. Ack.
Oh, and thanks so much for the super nice messages in regards to the upcoming book. You are all so sweet. And yes, CvsH will be updated as usual.

Story of my life.
ReplyDeleteI miss my cats in the Philippines! They love chips too, specially the salty ones! They go crazy the moment they hear the sound of the plastic wrapper. :)
ReplyDeleteLee [Oh Yeah, Coffee!]
my kitty is totally crazy about icecream. I only let her lick once ... or twice... well... you know :)))
ReplyDeleteOh, they have nothing on my roommate Binga - she just jumps right on the table and tries to help herself!
ReplyDeleteLol! Lupe is not really obsessed with food but she is with any liquid! if she sees you carrying a mug, a glass or a cup, she will follow you arround and eventually manage to drink out of it when you are distracted!
ReplyDeleteMy cat's favourites are Marmite on toast, pizza and ice cream. He once batted an entire slice of pizza off my plate and nommed all the cheese off it. Cheeky.
ReplyDeletei can identify with this 100%. it's bad enough fighting off my one food-crazed cat, i couldn't imagine doing it with more. ^^;;
ReplyDeleteWhat is it with cats and potato chips? It's the only human food my one cat will touch. I don't understand it.
ReplyDeleteBella Mae is my 'old lady' kitty, and she has gotten to where smells of some people food make her act like she's possessed by a human-food-eating creature. She'll come over and stretch her neck out as far as she can....mew *stretch* mew *streeeetch* I'll move her gently, but she keeps coming over until finally she realizes I will not relent.
ReplyDeleteIronically anything she wants to eat off my plate is not kitty-diet friendly (loaded up with garlic, onion, meat that wouldn't digest well, etc.)
Cordelia Joy thinks it is fun to partake in the stalking of mommy also. She'll come at me from the coffee table, but is much more quick to acknowledge I will not bend.
Mostly my cats land in my food plates while running and jumping around the house. Plate on the table? Landed in. Plate on my lap on the couch? Jumped onto the couch, ran through and jumped back off of the couch again.
ReplyDeleteKittens.
Be careful with spaghetti, both onions and garlic are toxic to cats... and both are in spaghetti sauce. (http://www.vetinfo.com/ctoxin.html)
ReplyDeleteoh yes, definitely. we are cautious about giving the cats people food in general. they are quite tricky about things though :)
ReplyDeleteMine go crazy about spaghetti noodles too! And also bean tacos.
ReplyDeleteI'm 99.825% vegan, so my poor beloveds are disappointed. That doesn't mean they don't enjoy investigating. ;)
ReplyDeleteI swear my little buggers never love me more than they do at dinner time. No matter what I eat, they purr at it and try to look saccharine sweet in the (vain) hope something might fall off my plate by mere accident. Self- serving liars, the lot of them!
ReplyDeleteMy cat does exactly the same, but only to get meat or chickpeas. He doesn't like sugary things and crisps.
ReplyDeleteMy old lady kitty had to be put to sleep today. I am very sad
ReplyDeleteMy little kitten loves tomato sauce and sweet breads (not the offal kind, but like banana bread, lemon bread, etc).
ReplyDeleteMy grumpy old man cat can always tell when we have some sort of frozen fudgcicle or our new favorite snack, frozen lemon pops. He comes the second he realizes what we have and leans in to lick the pop with his eyes closed (I think the citrus is too fragrant for him). Hes the same way with cups of any type of liquid. Also, Aislin I'm very sorry to hear about your kitty, I'm sure she had a great life with you.
ReplyDelete@aislin, i'm sorry about your kitty. it is always so difficult when this happens. i still have not forgotten about mine. take care dear.
ReplyDeleteAha! I thought there was something wrong with my cat for liking ice cream...and butter, cool whip, high ratio shortening, oil, etc
ReplyDeleteShe's been known to teleport across the room to steal some ice cream. My kitty has mastered worm holes D:
Hahaha thanks for the giggle ^__^.
ReplyDeleteMy kitty Hewiee is like that, but with butter. :/

ReplyDeletemy kitties have recently taken a liking to cheese and crackers. i have to fight them to get to it and if i dare turn my head there is a kitty tongue all over the cheese
ReplyDeleteoh yes, they love cheese.
ReplyDeleteMy kitties looooove macaroni and cheese. I had it for dinner tonight and they went crazy. Lily(the bold one) kept trying to swat some off my plate. Her brother and sister were more patient and they were all rewarded with a few noodles to "kill" when I was done eating. I love the way they shake the noodles to kill them before they eat them. :-)
ReplyDeleteMine likes salsa and strawberry-banana yogurt. She will hunt me down if I eat yogurt.
ReplyDeleteAME TU BLOG ! *-*
ReplyDeleteamo los gatitos :$ los felinos son mis animales favoritos (L)
Te sigo >.< y si tienes algo de tiempo, te invito a que te pases por el mio,
Espero que te encuentres muy bien, Saludos! :)
This ALWAYS happens to me. I have nine cats. Yesterday I had to share my pasta with pesto sauce with them.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your comics and especially the way you draw yourself (the eyes!).
ReplyDeleteMy cats go crazy over vanilla ice cream, milk, and salmon! Also, I love your comics.
ReplyDeleteI want to say I love the loopy eyes! You got mobbed!
ReplyDeleteI am going to buy your book! I love your comics. I printed one out, and stuck it on my work binder, the one where the kitty wont go in the carrier. HILARIOUS! I show it to my customers and tell them about your blog all the time. If you start making t-shirts or mugs or framed comics, I will so get some of that. You need to keep making these, because you are my favorite cartoonist!
ReplyDeletehaha same here... butter, cheese (they here the plastic wrap and RUN) come to think of it, they could tear up a sandwich ... no wonder i stopped eating them LOL
ReplyDeleteMy kitties love corn on the cob. They will eat every bit of it then play with the cob. I'm glad I looked at these comments, I had no idea garlic and onions are bad for kitties!! I have to fight them for the roasted garlic.
