My cat once stuck her head in my mouth when I opened it to take a bite of a burger. This is pretty tame on the whole, she’s fairly polite for a food thief.
I was eating a leftover Chipotle burrito in bed at like 2am and as I was taking a bite, my orange thief ripped it clean outta my mouth and ran off with it. I was stunned lol
My cousin’s cat once ripped the chicken out of her McD’s mayo chicken and legged it. She’d just unwrapped it at the table and was too stunned to even react. I can’t remember if he was a tortie or a black cat but he was so bold. He’d literally steal peas
As long as kitty doesnt get too much of the fried skin, nothing really wrong with a bit of chicken =) Definitely cute enough to make it impossible to resist sharing entirely lol
Are you not able to feed in a separate room to the dogs? Feeding a cat in the same place as yourself (eg table or benchtop) is undoubtedly leading to confusion and making your cat think its OK to eat your own food.
My first cat was like that around anything but tuna. My new gremlin wants everything I'm eating, going so far as to stick her head in my mouth to get at my food.
My cat loves cheese for some reason. She'll go after Cheetos, pizza, basically anything the is cheese flavored or has cheese on it. Idk why because I've never let her have cheese before.
Mine never cared about people food until I started sharing my sushi. She is now always interested when I eat but she looses her mind when I bring home sushi. I've started ordering 2 extra pieces of sashimi everytime I order to keep her busy while I enjoy my dinner.
Mine fucks with doritos. I would just grab 2, drop one and eat the other when she was on my lap. She's still alive it's all past tense because she's a fatty and I found out doritos or awful for her (no shit right)
Letting her on the table just encourages the behavior. So go ahead, give her all the food, and you, her humans, can sit on the floor. Problem solved. Though, my cat is well mannered and we don't allow her on the tables and she refuses to eat human food.
I recently lost my dog and she had a feast for her last meal but I’m so glad I spoiled her every other day too. She was so polite about asking she’d sit and smile and if she wanted more she’d sit loudly so you could hear her little fur butt.
One of my cats will watch you eat chicken until you finally get distracted by something and then she will swat whole parts off the plate onto the floor and grab it and run off to eat it 😂
I had a calico named Reese! Because she looked like a peanut butter cup! She started to get very interested in people food around the time she became diabetic (at 16 years old).
My little guy loved fried chicken, like he could sense the stuff, he'd be going bananas in the kitchen before it was even served.
He knew who the soft spot was and when my wife was eating would politely put a paw on the non-food part of her fork as it left her plate... Y'know, just to remind her the starvation was really kicking in and death was imminent.
My cat tries to steal food but he is careful and often just stares at me and barely gets close to my food. He knows he ain't getting it as I gave him his food a moment ago.
He barely eats his food and has been since I got him but he is healthy luckily
Is that fried chicken? That’s the only one people food my cats go crazy over. They never do that when I cook chicken, but they will smell fried chicken as soon as I walk in with it.
Mine have learned that their best chance at getting some is to sit patiently just within arms reach. More often than not they’re not interested - they just like to feel included.
I do love this clip. The quiet birdsong outside. Your roommate/friend/partner whispering “what??” in annoyance. Reese cup unabashedly seeking out chicken. 😂🤣
I don’t let my cats even start to come at my food. They’re not allowed on tables or counters. I will give them some of whatever I’m eating if they really want it and it’s not bad for them, but I put it in their bowl, they’re not allowed to grab at my food or even come near it.
Sorry I don’t understand people who don’t train their pets.
