These "weird cat" stories are hilarious!!
Mimi, our 11 year old cat, goes nuts over the smell of decongestants like Mentholatum or Vick's Vapor Rub. She's not much on food, just thrives on Fancy Feast and Purina Kitten Chow, and the occasional egg or shrimp tail! But, when she smells any kind of menthol, she goes nuts and wants to lick your lips off!
But, the Doughnut story reminded me of my previous cat, Shrimp Boat. I found her at a seafood market in NC. She had been riding on the shrimpboat for a week. Someone had dumped her off at the seafood market and they just took her in. She was in Heaven with all the seafood selections to eat. When I stopped there to pick up some fresh seafood before returning home from vacation, there she was, eating a JELLY DOUGHNUT!!! I had her for about 6 years before we had a tragic loss (long, sad story). I have such wonderful memories of her love for any type of food! She stuck to quite a schedule for eating as I guess she had been deprived at one time. Just talking about her has made me miss her again.
