I will have to show this one to my mom. Her Pippin runs away from treats (he had to be medicated recently, and now thinks treats = trap) but actively hunts down and eats plastic bags, given the chance.
I’ve got a cat that would rather eat the bag than the treats. I can’t leave it anywhere where he can reach, including in the cupboards. Little weasel has learned to open the cabinets in my new house.
Cats: Meow meow meow… where’s breakfast?Me: Got a treat today guys, your regular tinned food was sold out but this stuff looked fantastic.(Beats tin with spoon to get them excited).Cats: What’s this slop? This is a joke isn’t it? Where’s the real food?Me: Look, it’s great, it was more expensive than the regular tins, try it, you’ll love it.Cats: Give it to the dumb dog, he eats anything.Cats: Hey, where are you going? Come back and feed us, you can run but you can never hide. Me: (Cranky now). Eat the dried food then, bye.Cats: (In hot pursuit) Meow meow meow.
Goldie is truly getting over any food insecurity that she had before joining the Big Pink Household. Either that or this “extra fancy expensive” cat treat is absolutely disgusting. Ack THPPFFT!
Cat logic – Ignore the brand new, plush, cat bed from Amazon…play in the box it came in.
Cat logic – By pass the pieces of fresh shrimp offered…eat some of the dog’s food.
Cat logic – Walk into the bathroom and touch your paw to the freshly painted wall and then run out of the room with blue toe-beans (actually happened).
Hey, if anyone wants to help develop Breaking Cat News: Cats of Adventure, email me at lim95.yt@gmail.com. I need a sprite artist and possibly a musician, but that one is not required.
I understand why the Woman brings them exciting and special cat treats, but the Man would just feed them Spaghetti-Os . . . because he loves them (the cats). =)
I have a leather purse about the size of a small cat. Because it smells like me (and leather), our cats have always loved it and even cats who don’t much like each other will curl up on opposite sides of it. “Purse Cat” must now spend all day on the couch, mediating disputes. All well and good but our new kitten, Artemis, has decided she must eat it. Strap, zipper pulls – it’s all fair game. Sigh.
I’m back after a few days without wi fi connection.Finally got guest connection at extended care facility where I’ll be for the next couple weeks. I have a PIC line in for IV antibiotic and special wound care for broken open large callus on right heel…..good times….The comic has been hilarious in last few days!
I had a beautiful tortoise-hair cat, named precious. She came to us out of a Florida thunderstorm(Fierce howling winds, lighting crawling across the sky, raindrops the size of golf balls. Those who lived here know that is not hyperbole). She loved, off all things, the tube from paper towels! She actually played fetch with them! She also loved boxes, especially ones with flaps still in place she could pull shut. She would occasionally jump straight up out of one, freaking out whoever happened to be walking by. She was with me for almost twenty years.

“Why?” When it comes to Lupin, that’s the ultimate rhetorical question.

Will the Woman never learn? No extra fancy expensive cat treats will ever take the place of ham and/or bacon!

Wow, is this because he doesn’t know why he does it? I think that quote was from the “Someone has paint of their paws” strip.

Cats will turn down yummy kitty treats, but they will eat a bug.

Why should a Cat eat a treat that doesn’t smell like every treat they usually get? IT COULD BE POISON!

OMC! Lupin’s expression in panel 4! I can’t even…… And the Woman’s too….. Georgia is a master of expression with minimal lines.

You know I’ve always loved treats
You know I always will
Will I wait a lonely lifetime
For treats that don’t taste like swill
For when you ever buy treats
Be sure to skip this shame
For that’s what really matters
I will always feel the same
Hate them forever and forever
Hate them with all my heart
Hate them whenever we’re together
Hate them when we’re apart
And when at last you find treats
Whose essence fills the air
Shake the bag so I can hear it
Make sure Lupin doesn’t tear it
For the treats you give endear you to me
Oh, you know they will
They will
(John Lennon / Paul McCartney – I Will)

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile
Lupinium: Hi, Thomios! Got any Snacky-Snack treats?
Thomios: You’re in luck. The locusts had a plague yesterday, and Arachna and her spider friends are bringing a fresh batch today.
Lupinium: Ooh, I hope they have some bacon and ham snacks!
Thomios: I’m sure they will. And try to remember not to eat the wrappers.
Lupinium: But who has time to unwrap Snacky-Snacks? They’re so good.
Enter Elvis-Anum
Elvis-Anum: I heard Arachna is bringing a new batch of Snacky-Snacks.
Thomios: That’s right.
Elvis-Anum: Are they New and Improved?
*Thomios: * Perish the thought. You know what happens when someone tries to New and Improve something!
Elvis-Anum: What a relief!

The more expensive the treat, the less likely they are to eat it.
