Title: My pet is addicted to ___
Post by: Mooshi on October 02, 2010, 01:49:38 pm
I know vets say our pets shouldn't have certain foods, but who are we kidding? Many of us give our pets something that shouldn't be eating on the side as a special treat. (Don't feed your pets chocolate, though. That is really bad. :P)

What are some human foods your pets are in love with? My cat is addicted to pork rinds. o.o All started when my cat was still young and my grandfather left a bag of pork skins open while watching the game on tv. The doofus stuck her head in the bag, stole one and has been an addict ever since.

I used to have a dog that was addicted to rocks. Big, melon sized ones. She would excavate the yard searching for them.

My Sheltie's like that.  Except, he prefers to eat tennis balls.  And socks.  And basically any fabric he can get his teeth on.  And drywall...

Growing up, though, I had a cat who loved poppy seed cake above all else.

My dog is addicted to bread.  Whenever she hears the crinkling of the bread bag opening, she wakes up from a dead sleep and runs over.  Im pretty good about not giving her "people food" but she does occasionally get her slice of bread. She is also addicted to plushies.  I have a furry friend staying with me this weekend and he said... dude... your dog is totally a furry!  She carries a plushie around everywhere, even takes it to bed and sleeps with it!  She also wears her tail 24/7... :P

My cat is addicted to anything edible. Anything and everything that she can eat, she eats, and she eats a lot of it. We have to lock her one one of the bedrooms when we eat, or she tries to jump on the table... It's crazy. She's eaten everything from salads to butternut squash.

Post by: Ziel on October 05, 2010, 01:52:29 pm
Well, at the moment I'd just like my dog to eat something. He's obviously still not himself since the last couple weeks. Well, he won't eat his food at the very least. Completely ignores his dry food. Tried canned food, which worked for a while, but he won't eat that now. A neighbor suggested getting Bil Jac dog food from the grocery. He ate that for a day or so, and won't eat it now.

But he -will- eat any people food we try to give him, just about. He's had bread, half a peanut butter sandwich, part of a hot dog, even a small piece of a pickle. So he's hungry, he's just not interested in any of his food anymore...

The one thing that he's always enjoyed eating though, is cardboard. He doesn't just tear it to bits, he actually eats the majority of it. He gets paper towel or toilet paper rolls the most (sometimes he digs into the bathroom trash bins for toilet paper tubes...). But he absolutely loves christmas, when he'll get a wrapping paper tube.

Both of our cats are addicted to popcorn even if it doesn't have butter. They just sit under the coffee table while my wife and I watch TV and beg for popcorn. We just don't have the hearts to resist giving them a few pieces.

One of my family's cats is addicted to ice water.  He gets extremely excited every time someone uses our refrigerator's ice maker, and he always expects us to put new ice in his water bowl every time that we do.  He will also go to great lengths to drink out of any person's glass with ice water in it that he can find, whether you were done with it or not!  :)  The funniest thing though is that once he is successful at obtaining his ice water he becomes so happy that he kneads the ground with his front paws while he drinks it!

My first Sheltie loved ice!  We'd give him an ice cube in his water bowl sometimes, and he'd dance about barking at it and swishing his tail.

Our dog went through an ice phase, too. We'd drop one or two in his water bowl, and he'd actually pull them out and eat them. It's kinda funny watching dogs bob for ice cubes. They make sure to breathe out through their noses when they go for it, and you get a bunch of bubbles in the water.

One of my parent's dogs, used to be mine before I went to college, was addicted to stealing coffee, she didn't want to coffee so much as the stealing part. At one point at an off leash dog park she knocked a guy over and ran off with his coffee. The next day he was ready fo0r her so she couldn't take him of his feet, problem was that he was wearing a hat with a long dangly thing on it so she grabbed that and ran off with his hat. The guy put his coffee down so he could chase her, she waited till he was about half way between her and his coffee she then dropped his hat ran around him and took his coffee.

Our cats have never been that nuts over it, oddly. Sure, they like it, but I have seen cats go nuts for it...they haven't so much. Though, what thy call Cat Grass, on the other hand...wow! She goes crazy over.

Hmm, I wonder what Kiki (the newest, youngest house cat) would do with catnip.

In general though, Bear (the older cat) is addicted to anything sweet. And chicken. Kiki is addicted to...well, meat in general.

I used to have a cat that was so addicted to catnip that when we planted it we eventually had to put a milk create over it to protect it from her since the first three times she ate it down to the root. Once the milk create was in place there would be days when she would lie on top of it all day simply chewing the plant as it grew, the Delta cat was c0onstantly high on the stuff.

Chili--My cat licks it outta the can. Also chili dog sauce. She gets vocal when the can is opened.

Had a 16-lb tomcat who would poke me in the leg at the supper table whenever I was eating something he wanted to try. Usually it was chicken, fish, or venison. He loved KFC so much that he broke the rule about hopping on the kitchen counter, to lick out an empty  packing foam carton. Also hiding in boxes and spinning around to catch a leather boot lace. He would actually drag the boot lace over and motion to me to "make it go."

Before he died our chocolate lab, Scotty was addicted to candy. You could not eat anything sugary without his snout in your face. He especially loved Twizzlers. If you were eating Twizzlers you had to be careful because he would literally come up and snatch them out of your mouth. The only thing he wasn't allowed was chocolate for obvious reasons.
He also loved cucumbers. We have a garden every summer and he'd go out and pick himself a cucumber, bring it into the house and eat it. He was a strange dog in a loveable kind of way. He died in January at the ripe old age of 18. We now have a puppy who we would swear was Scotty's son if we didn't know better. A yellow lab showed up by our house at the beginning of summer. She had obviously been dumped by some heartless person. She was skinny, with her ribs, hip and shoulderbones showing. We took her in and she turned out to be pregnant. I spent the majority of the summer caring for her and her puppies. One of the puppies was the spitting image of Scotty and like Scotty he loves candy. He has a lot of Scotty's other mannerisms as well. It's uncanny.

But more than anything he's obsessed with carrots. He really is...you hand him one and he trots off with it in his mouth, sits on his bed and just munches it. sweetest thing ever, trust me.  :)

We found out when he had a bad scrape from playing too rough with our other kitty (Akira the Bengal mix).  He will bend over backwards to try and eat it.  We end up having to just clean any wounds he has with salt water to keep him out of it.

Our dog Penny (Bichon Frise) adores carrots and apples.

My ringneck doves love nyjer aka "thistle" seed (which is too high in fat for them to have much of) and grapes cut up really fine.

I've actually never, ever given my husky any sort of food other than his dog food.  He does for some reason really like my socks though.  He'll pick them out of my laundry hamper and scatter then around the house.

Our dog loves our socks and underwear.  We're pretty sure it's all about keeping the smell of the pack close to her (the pack smell seems very comforting to her.)

Well, he's not ours, but a neighbor's cat I watch whenever they go away, Socks, has a really strange habit. He'll take a break when eating, go to the back door and meow at me until I let him out. Now, this isn't unusual, 'cause he's (mostly) an outdoor cat. What is unusual is how he'll go out, then drink water from the pond in the back yard, and then want back in. And he'll do this multiple times while eating, while he has a fresh bowl of water right next to him, lol.

My tomcat Ziggy would drag out a leather boot lace and motion for me to "make it go." As I twirled the lace, he would spin around while batting away at the end. He would get dizzy and stop. Then I would reverse direction and he'd chase it in the other direction.

In warm weather, he had the run of the house. I would block the bedroom door with a pair of boots placed heel-first against the slightly ajar door. Zig would wait outside in the morning and listen. If my breathing rate changed, he would push the door open and stand on his hind legs (front paws on the bed frame) at the head of the bed. Then he would lean over and yowl loud, then louder, and louder, until I woke up and buffed him on the head. Then he would leave. His "job" was done.

STICKS! My dog Woody (name is just a coincidence people) loves sticks. If a branch falls down, he eats through that thing faster than a fat kid with chocolate cake. I know most dogs like sticks, but my dog is crazy about them! Also snow, he loves to lick snow, but absolutely hates getting any on himself. he'll sit on the edge of the concrete and stretch out as far as he can for a morsel of frosty goodness.

My cat is addicted to his favorite toy, a mouse toy with a noisy little bell. He actually stands outside of my room sometimes, meowing at me and wanting me to follow him to the living room and drag that toy across the floor for him. At that time, not much distracts him, except for maybe when the other cat walks past.

I found that toy yesterday. It had been missing for a while. My cat was so happy that he ran up to me and starting purring and scratching my shoe (he has a thing with scratching shoes).

I've recently discovered that my German shepherd has an addiction to Lay's potato chips. She's learned to recognize the bag and will get excited whenever she sees one. Once the bag is opened she will begin drooling uncontrollably and will continue to stare at me until I relent and give her a handfull.
She also has a strange addiction to marshmallows, including marshmallow peeps. It's wierd. When she was younger she turned her nose up at sugary stuff but she seems to have developed a sweet tooth in her old age.

I also used to have a rat who was addicted to Burger King fries. Of course, this was in the 90s when their fries were still good.

On top of stealing lettuce, he steals earbuds, wires, chopsticks, pens, HAIRTIES and anything resembling them, and tries to steal anything shiny or long.   Ferret cat.

He was an abandoned cat in a park across town which we came across while looking for our other missing cats.  I put up notices to see if he belonged to anybody, but nobody claimed him.  He doesn't really read cat body language so much as human language, so I feel he was raised as a young kitten by people.  Poor guy, but he's  happy and not hungry now. :D

and out she slid, glad to be free.  She never did that again.  At least crawling into a
coat sleeve.  :D

Hehe.  When I was younger, the family dog was a huge fan of yogurt.  Mostly we purchased the kind that came in the tall cylindrical plastic containers, so at some point she found one and managed to get it stuck to her bottom jaw and could not get it off.  Nobody noticed until somebody observed: "hey, why is the dog walking around with a yogurt can stuck to her face?"  She looked really ashamed, as she usually did when scolded for stealing trash, but we though it was so funny that we just laughed for hours.

My baby doesn't really go for people food (though he often gets confused about the fact that my sister is eating something other than cat food, like... why?), but he does overeat when we don't carefully monitor his diet. And he always thinks he wants things that smell spicy, but he doesn't actually like the taste. The worst thing with him is that he's addicted to plastic. He's always stealing garbage that we've got to wrestle away from him.


The other cat in the family, though... he's pretty omnivorous, and he'll steal right off your plate if he gets the chance (and he tries to drink coffees and teas if you don't watch your cups). His favorites include string cheese, yogurt (unless it has artificial sweeteners), oatmeal (the chewy bits, not just the milk at the bottom of the bowl-- when he was a kitten, my dad spoiled him by letting him just lick up anything that wasn't poisonous to him, and since he's not predisposed to weight gain or health problems in general, it hasn't done him much harm-- if anything, we think he's going to be one of those thirty year old cats that people can't believe is still running around like a kitten), and vegetables! He likes cooked carrots and green beans all right, he doesn't care about corn niblets, but loooves the cob, he used to scrape artichoke leaves with his teeth like a person, and his favorite is asparagus.

The only real problem with him is that he steals food you're trying to eat, and that he goes for food that makes him gassy and then he goes to cuddle with you for comfort because his tummy is upset and he has no idea WHY. And then he produces powerful odors.

My cat loves cheese curls, for some reason. Not that I disagree with her.

There's a joke around my family that my dog is addicted to crack because of her spastic behavior. One day, I came home and found white powder all over my stairs and the first thing that came out of my mouth was, "Ada! Did you spill your crack?" She wagged her tail.
