The bribing of cats is a serious thing...

[la_marquise]

Ish has stopped gaining weight quite as quickly as he did at the start of the new diet, so I have been experimenting with new ways to get food down him. Today, I proudly present catnip-infused chicken! (See the woman who hates to cook cook when her cats are involved.)
Horus is very very impressed. Ish has yet to sample it.

(Ish is doing okay: the inflammation is reduced and he's full of energy and eating well. He's just not regaining weight at the rapid rate he did at the start.)

Skirt of the day: blue wedgewood.

Appetite doesn't seem to be a problem with my cats. In fact the black one just gets bigger and bigger. No matter how much he eats, he thinks he's starving. Mine are generally content with the store-bought stuff. But I do treat them with chicken and turkey when we humans have it.

Any time I make fish, the sit in front of the oven (or microwave) and cry while it bakes.

I have a recipe for fish in an herbed cream sauce that when I make it, I must lock the kitties away until we are done eating. But the last time I looked, I couldn't find the recipe :( I believe it had heavy cream, some lemon, and various herbs that taste good with fish.

My first cat was like that. He thought people food was the best thing ever. My current three are marginally better behaved. Mooncat likes to check what's on plates, in case she needs to eat it for us, and Horus will sneak up on chopping board. Ish, the cat who is on the special diet, has never been that interested in helping us cook.
