She really likes cake donuts. You know, the old-fashioned plain kind with a hint of nutmeg.

I used to have a cat that used to absolutely lur-ur-ur-ve curry. Oh, and jam.

That's pretty remarkable.

Do you know, to this day I have never yet been to a Dunkin' Donuts, so I have no idea what makes their coffee famous. I don't even know where the nearest one is, or if we even have any at all. Anyway, I just get the occasional cake donut (my favorite) at the local gas station. I bring 'em home and let the cat have a sniff; her eyes get big and she begs just as much as if it were a piece of chicken.

Huh? I posted something. It was there. It's gone. Ho hum.

Never even saw it.

So. I was talking about my cat. The one that liked curry. And jam. She was called Lucky. She looked like the cutest little black and white Persian you ever did see. But she was evil. She used to lay in wait for visitors. Once she crept downstairs behind a friend of mine and leaped silently through the open staircase, sinking all four sets of claws and her teeth into his side, where his sweatshirt had ridden up exposing a patch of bare flesh. I hadn't had the heart to forewarn him. He always treated me differently after that, for some reason.

Can't say as I'd blame him. And what was Lucky's destiny after that?

Lucky lived to a ripe old age - just 2 months short of her 19th birthday. And she was always a special cat for me. She only liked two living things in the world - myself and my then wife. And, even though she loved us, she attacked even us. Regularly. She was a 'character'.

Our junior cat LOVES bread. Any kind of bread. White bread, whole wheat, banana, zucchini, pumpkin -- it doesn't matter. He doesn't like raw flour, cookies, etc. We have to be vigilant -- when I get home with bread in a grocery bag, if I take my coat off before putting stuff away, his head will be in the bag before I have the coat off. I'd thought it was only yeast bread till I found teeth marks in a loaf of pumpkin bread a year or so ago.

And my wife found him drinking her hot cocoa yesterday.

Some years ago, we had a baguette go missing. We found the cat in a closet with the baguette clutched in her teeth, growling at all comers.

BW will eat anything - tomatoes, oatmeal cookies, any meat/cooked any way/with any spices, ice cream - we've yet to find anything we feel safe giving him that he hasn't scarfed down without hesitation. He also kills and eats birds from the garden occasionally. Unfortunately, he thinks it necessary to dine in the house!

Including oranges?
