This is the expression of a cat who's just learned his name is Lard rear end.

Well, my mom calls him Shadow now but he was almost exclusively known as Lard rear end while my dad was alive. As long as the food dish gets filled - he doesn't really seem to care. Food, pets, and place to lay down.

Saw a fluffy stray cat in the backyard and I left out some tofu and a bowl of water. It drank the water but didn't touch the tofu at all. I guess they aren't vegan and I guess I have to go buy some tuna at the store.

Cats are obligate carnivores. They -must- have meat or meat-based products to get the nutrients they require.

I think he knows that... I'm guessing tofu was all that was on hand and the cat (correctly) refused to ingest.

ALL PART OF MY BRILLIANT STRATEGY!
Every cat seems to have some weird non-meat thing it's crazy for, though. One of my cats could just not get enough of apples, for instance, and my current red lump of fuzz loves plain white mushrooms. He will literally ignore meat on the same plate just to scarf up every single mushroom chunk or slice in sight.

I've got a bread cat. In the past, I also had an ice cream cat. She would stalk you to lick the melted stuff out of the bowl and sometimes even try to get her face in the bowl while you were eating if she could. No poo poo, her favorite flavor was chocolate, and god help you if you were eating any other flavor. She would get so offended. My parents have an ice cream cat now, but I don't think she's as picky about flavor.

Both my cats love all kinds of flour. I had to get child locks for my cabinets because they were prying them open and making an enormous mess.

My childhood cat loved vanilla pudding. I learned this when I was sitting on the floor and had finished some and he pawed at the container so I let him lick it.

When he was on his way out and refusing to eat or drink, he would still lick the pudding out of a cup.

Yup. Had a cheese and ice cream cat. She would sit and purr and lap up shredded parmesan. And a little dab of mint chocolate chip would make her happy, too.

Oddly, she couldn't stand catnip. Sasha (aka Sausage) was a weird cat who just ignored the power politics the other cats sometimes tried to play.

One of my cats loves carrots like catnip, he stole a couple of carrots out of mums groceries and drooled on them and rolled around on them in cat drugs style, he gets a slightly lesser reaction to celery tops too.

Growing up, I had a tabby cat that was plucked out of our barn as a kitten and was basically my shadow for 18 years. He would eat green beans, which worked for me because I HATED green beans when I was a kid. He'd sit in my lap at dinner time and wait for me to flick them over to him. It was great.

My childhood cat loved the fake cheese powder on Doritos. You had to give her one chip and she'd lick it clean.

There's a biology professor at my university who has a cat who loves lettuce and will open the fridge to get at it. He uses this as a segue into carnivore dentition and how cats, being carnivores, have scissor-like molars really meant for cutting off chunks of food by biting sideways at a big thing, not grinding, so as much as she loves lettuce, she mostly just ends up shredding lettuce everywhere while she attempts to take bites of it.

Our cat Leo eats red cabbage, lettuce and avocado if he can get his paws on it. He'll also go for popcorn, cheetos and chips (provided they're not too spicy) if they're offered to him but that's more of a normal cat thing.

Our old cat Riff absolutely ADORED canned pineapple. My dad would eat it as a snack, and Riff would come sprinting and meowing to lick the bowl clean. He was otherwise not a talkative cat, it was so weird.

I have one who does this any time I am eating, but she doesn't want my food. My hands should always be engaged petting and playing with her. She slapped a snickers ice cream bar out of my hand at one point. I imagined she was saying,"play with me, you fat gently caress."

Another comes running when she hears a bag of donettes being opened. Yes, that is spelled correctly. Hostess has a line of tiny donuts called "donettes". The same cat loves popcorn. She will also eat Styrofoam if given a chance, so that gets taken out to the trash immediately so that she doesn't cache it somewhere for later.
