I once had a foster kitten that I had a heck of a time getting to eat. Then

one evening I was sitting and eating a baked sweet potato.

 

All of a sudden this growling bundle of fur landed in my plate with all

claws showing.

 

 

 

She grabbed that potato and off she went! Was in the corner growling at all

the adult cats who came close. They really didn't want the potato but

wanted to see what all the fuss was about.

 

 

 

She ate until she was sooooooo full, her belly was round. Then I worried

about her all night. That she shouldn't have eaten it or ate too much of

it.

 

 

 

But the next day she finally ate normally.

I've got a foster kitten right now who eats everything -- cornbread last

week, half a muffin -- probably would have eaten more if I had let her!

She's a tortoiseshell, so that explains part of the weirdness!! :)

Pumpkin is very good for cats and kittens, especially ones kept inside. It

regulates their digestive track. It is good for diarrhea or constipation.

I think the kitten knew what it wanted and needed.

One of the other fosters I know swears by a tablespoon of canned pumpkin for

stinky kitten poop. What a conversation! So how many cat rescue people are

there here?? :)

 

I've got Maudie and Myrtle, my tortoiseshell sisters, shorthaired and

longhaired, respectively. I bottlefed them from 2 weeks old, and they are

very educated cats -- they went to law school with me! They're very attached

to each other and to me. I also have three parrots and a dog. :)

I just started feeding my cat organic canned food, and one of the

ingredients is sweet potato. My cat loves that food more than any other I've

given him.

My favorites are the blues (solid gray)!!! And the Bengals!!! But Bengals

are not for everyone. You have to be a real cat person to put up with their

antics!!

I've had several cats that ate vegetables.

 

One cat particularly loved warm green peas. Another liked butternut squash soup.

I had one that enjoys cornbread, too! The most recent fave human food are

Italian breadsticks. I leave them in a glass, and the cat chews off the tops.

 

I've fostered severely abused cats that stayed rolled in balls in the corner of

cages. Rescue groups used to send me tough cases. It was very rewarding to work

with kitties to get them to trust a human again, but it takes a lot of time and

patience. Also, sometimes some fresh warm green peas!

You have that right. I have been in rescue close to 50 years now, both dogs

and cats, and it is so rewarding when they start to trust you. Of course,

you have the advantage of feeding them, and that helps the most, along with

love and comfort.
