I let my cats have a taste of what I'm eating, but only safe food (chicken, lamb, cheese; pork ribs and chocolate are RIGHT OUT!)

Not too long after I adopted her, Bosun did a mega nawtee. None of my cats had ever bothered food left on the counter. Well, I had this chicken grinder cut in half. I ate half and left half on the counter for later. I went to get it, and on the floor were a bun, lettuce, tomatoes and a VERY smug looking Bosun. Leftovers go behind cat proof doors now!
