She smell checks almost every ingredient and never tastes. Best cat. Then she smells the end product and we’re both like ‘that’s that done, then’.

    My cat has to sniff the can of cat food after I dump it out in her bowl so she can decide if it’s worth the 4 steps it’ll take to get to the bowl. She’s a cat, she can smell the food in her bowl from less than a foot away. But if she doesn’t get to sniff the can, it might as well be poison for all she knows.

      My parents have 4 cats, three of them willingly eat the wet food as soon as we put it down. Also, there 3 generations of cats (we started out with a brother and sister as kittens, my parents didn’t get them fixed in time, the brother impregnated the sister, we kept one of the offspring, my dad had a heart attack and we didn’t get to spay her in time and she also had kittens from an unknown suitor). The original female we started with is very picky, when we put down wet food for her and half the time she’s like “fuck this”. Occasionally she’ll dip her paw into it and then taste what’s on her paw to see if it’s worth eating. Cracks me up every time I see it.
