Your cat's breath smells like cabbage

For the past couple months, some creature has been getting into my vegetable patch and stripping leaves off my brussels sprouts plants. I set a live trap briefly, without success, to catch what I figured had to be a groundhog, or maybe a raccoon or skunk.

Today I see movement in the brussels sprouts, head over and spy the offender fleeing the area - a medium-sized black cat.

What the hell kind of cat eats brussels sprout leaves? What’s the matter with a balanced diet of rodents?

I suspect this cat may be the sibling of a black kitten that wandered out of the woods last year and attached itself to Mrs. J. (figuratively speaking). We wound up finding a home for that one with my brother. This one, though is another story.

Actually I think I’ll try the Havahart trap again, baited with tuna. Any dopers want a nice black cat for Halloween?

My MiL has a cat that eats shredded cabbage, and expects it daily. Damn, now I know of two ultra-weird cats in existence.

Cabbage Patch Kits?

Well, you could be mistaken and this could be part of the Big Circle of Life. Critter eats brussels sprouts. Cat eats critter.

I had a cat that liked fruit. He ate pineapple, pears, peaches, apples and banana. He would try just about any people food that you gave him.

It’s not that unusual for cats to become ravenous herbivores, especially toward one particular plant. When I had a cat she used to love to suck aloe plant juice. She’d bite into it and lick out the aloe juice. She left all other plants alone but she love her daily aloe fix.

Our cats are partial to grass, pet grass, and spider plants. For obligate carnivores, they sure do like the green stuff once in a while.

We had a cat (gone now) who would beg for anything the person at the kitchen counter had. One day it was shredded zucchini; he quite enjoyed it.

One of my cats really likes corn and peas. The others just want their kitty kibbies.
