    Had a farm cat once that was nuts about raw potato and cucumber. No other foodstuff, but any whiff of those and she’d be right there too take them off your hands.

    Great mouser, too.

    One of my senior cats LOVES lettuce but it has to be fresh and the right cut. It can’t be a bum end, and there’s some mysterious threshold for freshness. Once he gets it he guards it with his life and chows down; then asks for more.

    Grow that cat some greens. Rye, barley, oats, and wheat seeds are cheap to buy and easy to grow.

      I grow them (cat grass seed mix) for my cat, but honestly she prefers when I pull her some of the crabgrass weeds that come up in my balcony plant pots.

        Same. I grow them nice lush looking cat grass and they still prefer the crabgrass and johnson grass from outside.

    I found out one of mine has a thing for flour tortillas one day after I had just bought a fresh 10 pack, left it still sealed on the counter and a few hours later, found she had nom’d her way through the plastic bag and ate a huge chunk out of all 10.
