What's unusual about this is that all cats are "Obligate Carnivores" which means they can only digest meat.
However, out of the 4 wild cats I care for, one of them always sits in my lap & tries to eat the salad I'm eating.
Not mine. She left food in her dish all day a couple of weeks ago because she didn't like it. That was a certain variety of wet food. She did the same thing when she decided she no longer wanted to eat dry food. Normally she'll let us know in her very loud "I'm hungry" voice. She didn't even do that.
