this is a game i play with my girl cat. the first time she encounters a new food and i offer it to her, there is a 50/50 shot whether it is going to be food or a toy.
it makes me laugh to see the gears turning. she’ll pause in place as her brain processes the new info, and then sloooooowly… either bite it or start batting it around.
I let my Willow sniff-test a lot of my food. usually I know he wouldn’t find interest in it, but I did lose a few shrimp to him one time
Tried giving a small cooked shrimp to a cat I once had. Proceeded to bat it all over the room. He liked the smell and to fetch it but wouldn’t eat it.
