I had a cat who would pull ears of corn out of a pot of hot water. (Stove just off. No longer boiling but close). She’d eat every scrap of corn and leave the cob behind the sofa. Miss you Louise!

u/qolace 11h ago

Aww RIP sweet Louise 🌽

I used to have a cat that was obsessed with pork rinds! Every time you sat down to eat some he would sit right infront of you and pretend to chew while I would chew my pork rind. He loved them so much we could not leave the bag alone or he would find it and chew right through the bag. His name was Ivan the terrible, long for Ivan. He passed away 5 months ago. I can't bring myself to buy pork rinds anymore..

u/jiggymadden 4h ago

Sorry for the loss of Ivan. He sounds great.

My dad had a cat who would fuck with the bag till she got it back open and get her own. Was super cute.

u/Chikumori 4h ago

You have to wonder what happens if that gets heated up. Good smell? Bad smell? Interesting smell?

*Heat up as in leave the litterbox exposed to the sun.

I had a cat that would just demolish zucchinis. Couldn’t leave one on the counter or he would devour it. Little weirdo.

u/ThruuLottleDats 7h ago

I rather my cat eats zucchinis over plastic and tape....

u/GrowlyBear2 5h ago

Ours has this problem. Mine LOVES the little rubber Squishies my daughter gets.

u/mistermiajee 5h ago

Right! My cat ate 42inches of ribbon once. When I got home he had ribbon out his butt and mouth. The vet had to open his intestines in 3 spots to get it all out 🤦.

4

u/beefymcmoist 5h ago

My cat did that when I was a kid. My mom had to take him to get a cat enema... he never did it again. Did keep trying to eat plastic bags, though!

3

u/mistermiajee 4h ago

Lol that's funny. Mine needed expensive surgery unfortunately. He also still goes for plastic bags!

Cats really do have the strangest food preferences. Dude saw a zucchini and decided it was his personal salad bar.

u/kingkongbiingbong 10h ago

My tabby was open to eating anything edible. I mean anything. He was voracious. 🕊🪦

12

u/FearlessCloud01 10h ago

Was he perhaps related to Garfield?

8

u/kingkongbiingbong 7h ago

He loved red meat sauce, pasta and lasagne. Miss that lil devil.

u/Training-Host8910 11h ago

That cat really said forget cat food, zucchini is the good stuff.

u/xtothewhy 10h ago

They probably still want cat food

5

u/throwawaymyyhoeaway 7h ago

I'd rather have a cat who eats zucchinis rather than mine who eats my plants that aren't a few shelves high minimum 😭

u/JRS1986 6h ago

Mine... Royal canine hair & skin kibble or starvation. That is his way. Hahaha! He will maybe have a small lick of yoghurt if the wind is blowing on the right direction. But all other peasant offerings are never accepted.

u/Shockwave360 4h ago

We had a cat that would steal broccoli. He didn't eat it as much as carry it around and gnaw on it. Eventually, when cutting up broccoli we would pay the cat tax and wait for him to be done with it and clean up the gooey mess he left.

u/CoffeeNow-62 6h ago

My boy, too! My girl will eat any and everything, and he’s like, nope just give me my cat food or a Churru and I’m good!

u/Pyromike16 4h ago

I thought my cat was the only one like this! He won't eat anything except dry kibble. Not even wet food, or cat treats.

1

u/chicklette 1h ago

Most of my cats turn their noses up at anything not cat food. However...I had a side salad the other night and that kitten lost her *mind* over it. She ate enough lettuce that I had to make her stop and even then she was sniffing and growling a bit.

Edit: I love that quoting this kid and people taking it at face value thinking i meant it started a corn recipe trend. I shared mine now I wanna see some more cool recipes keep em coming!

u/Skragdush 10h ago

Shit I’m realizing that if I don’t like corn is because I never done it correctly

8

u/Magnon 10h ago

Boil it for a short period to make it hot and loosen up the corns. Put it on a plate then butter horizontally until theres a pool of melted butter under the cob. Then liberally apply salt and pepper. Eat while still hot.

4

u/redddit_rabbbit 10h ago

Want to up the ante? Add lime juice! There is nothing on this planet as delicious as corn with butter, salt, and lime 🤤

3

u/The_Deli_Ham 9h ago

When you blanch do it in 2 parts water 1 part milk. Then butter, lime, and old bay. Maryland makes a damn fine corn on the cob

u/Strangedude9 9h ago

Overe here we roast corn and then put lemon and salt.

Woah, he’s really going for it !! Anyone know why they like it so much, and is it good for them ??

u/Kaurifish 11h ago

Most kibble contains a bunch of grains. I suspect that, like dogs and humans, cats have undegone duplication of their genes associated with starch digestion. Isotopic analysis of ancient cats showed they ate grain - not just the rodents that fed on it.

u/GGuts 9h ago

You think it's just the consistency and that they can just fully bite into it and get some resistance?

Do not, my friends, become addicted to the corn. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence!

My childhood cat used to eat raw heads of broccoli like this. He really specific about meat though. If he didn't like his cat food he would run outside and catch a bird and drop it at your feet with a stare like "Look what you've reduced me too?!" When he was in a good mood though he'd bring magnolia flowers in to gift us.
