Opa Chef for Cats

Opa goes through periods of heightened creativity, particularly at night when the rest of the house is asleep. One of the activities he likes to do is prepare interesting and nutritious breakfasts for our cat Michael. Sometimes he forgets that our cat Mia passed away this summer and will prepare breakie for two.

Recently, there were two bowls of milk garnished with fresh sliced strawberries along side the regular bowl of cat food. Michael ignored the strawberries and milk.

   
The next day, there was more of a variety: bread soaked in milk, orange juice, leftover vegetable pulp from the juicer, and a liverwurst sandwich cut up into bite size pieces.

 
 
As usual, Michael ignored the tasty offerings and went straight for his cat food.
 
 



On the third day, there was a cup of sugar, a bowl of mango juice, a caramel pudding cup, a bowl of sugar, and two wedges of Laughing Cow cheese.

 


Only this time, Opa decided to remove the bowl of cat food, presumably to entice Michael to sample the latest breakfast smorgasbord. Michael was not pleased.

  1. Dear Opa! I wonder if he'd be surprised to learn that apparently cats can't taste sugar. Mine seems to go crazy over salty treats such as Cheetos. Perhaps he could redirect his attention to that sort of goody!

  2. Opa is such a creative and inspiring person. Maybe my cats will receive a delicious treat next time they saunder over to their food bowls. :)
