I love hearing about the vegetables and other foods your pets like to - or won't - eat.<br /><br />I should probably admit that Topaz <i>might</i> have been mostly interested in a couple of blobs of guacamole decorating the top of that dish of vegetables headed for the chickens. ; )<br /><br />It's not surprising, since she LOVES tortilla chips. I've actually busted her jumping onto the kitchen counter to steal chips out of a bowl. I couldn't figure out what the heck she was after. Watching her enthusiastically crunching on them is a riot.<br /><br />She does eat vegetables, too - and she goes crazy over cantaloupe. I've had other cantaloupe loving cats before - it seems like they either gobble it up or look at you like you're nuts. : )</b>Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-28168816622903453792010-09-27T14:34:05.223-05:002010-09-27T14:34:05.223-05:00Our dog Lena (a Norwegian Buhund) LOVES to eat the...Our dog Lena (a Norwegian Buhund) LOVES to eat the following raw foods: the crunchy parts of Romaine lettuce, cabbage, carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, potatoes white and sweet, apple, pear, green beans…. and I'm sure that I'm leaving some out. [She does NOT like bananas, oranges or onions. One day I left an orange peeled and wrapped in two paper towels. She ate the paper towels and left the orange.] When I go in the kitchen and start chopping, she sits hopefully at my feet, waiting for something to be thrown to her which she will catch before it hits the floor.Janetxbnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-40331020675856938712010-09-27T09:23:39.147-05:002010-09-27T09:23:39.147-05:00I saw my sisters 2 little dogs eat tomatoes the ot...I saw my sisters 2 little dogs eat tomatoes the other day.<br /><br />She said they would eat grapefruit too.....The JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10860982258621823529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-11021586679125370092010-09-26T23:16:35.859-05:002010-09-26T23:16:35.859-05:00I recently discovered your blog via npr.org.

We grow them in the garden just for the dogs. But the Newf will only eat them if they are peeled!

But my dogs, not so much. Loki, my crazy healer/lab/border collie mut cross will politely take what you offer him, and just as politely gently spit it back out and look at you like, "what the heck were you thinking". I have a cat who will take your arm off for cheese, and two othere who could care less.
