That's My Boy!

We have two cats and Ollie, our floppy and gorgeous black and white cat, is a real Mummy's boy. He loves being kissed and cuddled by me. It appears though that he's now trying to follow my diet. I'm a pescetarian who tries to avoid dairy as much as possible. I enjoy honey nut cornflakes with fresh fruit for my breakfast and always use a plant based milk. There's always a little bit left in my bowl when I've finished my breakfast and Ollie loves finishing it up. Today, Adam was making himself a ham sandwich for lunch and I had some vegetarian ham. Adam offered both Ollie and our other cat, Dusky, a piece of ham. Dusky gobbled it down but Ollie walked away. I offered him a bit of my vegetarian ham and he loved it! Does anyone else have a cat that has decided it prefers vegetarian products to meat/dairy?

That's a bit different for a cat.

What's so amazing is that he's happy to go out hunting and bringing us rabbits, mice etc.

@olliesmum Perhaps he only like 'organic' meat!

@JudyEv If that's the case then he's going to have to find himself a better 'hotel'!

That's funny, obviously it is a good alternative for meat lovers! I have never seen that product before, we do eat quorn mince and quorn pieces reasonably often. Long ago I used to have a cat that liked crisps!

We had one that loved mild curry and chilli and another that loved beetroot and mushrooms.

My cat always loves cheese! Not so keen on my vegetarian products though. I have never tried vegetarian ham though, because I didn't like normal ham when I ate meat anyway.
