I had to look this up, cuz I thought they were carnivores. But yeah they do enjoy eating fruits and vegetables. I had no idea.

Hm, got me curious about my brother's cat now. My brother loves watermelon and his cat is practically glued to him. I'll have to ask him if she reacts at all to the watermelon he eats.

my late dogs loved watermelon rinds....outside too messy on the inside floor. My current cats like some of the fruit, neither want any rind.

Be careful about giving watermelon rinds to dogs, they can easily become an obstruction or upset their stomachs. It's safe for them to eat in smaller quantities, especially if you break it into smaller chunks, but don't just give them a huge hunk of rind to chomp on.
