Ours was a fiend for beans, pumpkin, elk meat, broccoli and expensive cheese. Beans were the most hilarious thing, she’d reach for them a not-very-sneaky paw if you weren’t paying attention.
Yeah, ours loved cantaloupe too we just didn’t buy it very often. We figured her favorite foods probably had some nutrients she was missing or something. She was a bit of a hausschwein, if we were eating it she wanted it.
Obligatory: don’t feed your cats people food without verifying that it’s safe for them to eat, cats kidneys and liver are really fragile compared to humans.
Yes be especially careful with onions, garlic, anything in the allium family. Any food seasoned with them is dangerous to cats but they’re practically in everything that would otherwise be okay as an occasional treat.
+1, we’re both unable to eat onion and garlic so we’re extremely vigilant about ingredient lists. Watch out for artificial sweeteners too, many of them are outright toxic for cats.
I know that reaching paw routine. Ours grabs for expensive meat and …beans, of all things.
Cats have weird tastes sometimes

That’s an interesting combination lol. I had a cat that loved cantaloupe; he’d come from anywhere in the house when he smelled it
