It's because cats live on their nerves and don't really accept you as friends.
I had a lab that could tell the difference between decent fillet and Tesco's value steak.

I would believe that of a Siamese cat, but not a labrador.
A labrador would probably eat carpet if it was in the bowl.

I had a colleage whose cat would only eat Harrods' fresh haddock.
Perfectly reasonable if you live in Knightsbridge.
Somewhat inconvenient for anyone further away, though.

I know. I was just suggesting that dogs can also often detect such things, if not fully disguised.
I didn't say we couldn't overcome that.

Very good. Perhps you could blast homeownersclub with it.
No. You had a colleague who was f****ng stupid.
agreed
Pathology, Forensic or University Research ?
An old lady near me, who almost died of 'malnutrition', fed her two yappy dogs just on cooked chicken breasts, but with the skin removed.
She just lived on scraps.
As a teenager the cat got steamed fish and chicken, and lamb chops.
I got a pot noodle every Wednesday as a treat which I had to buy myself.

Our dogs got half a tin of Pal and a handful of Winalot. They were dogs, not guests or children. ;-)
What is it about cats (in particular) that makes people act so weirdly?
Considering the nutritional value of such, serves you right you had to buy it yourself. ;-)

to be fair, the cat probably appreciated my mother's cooking more than I did.

LOL!
I've just seen a neighbour carrying what looked like a couple of cat carriers from their car to the house (funny how you rarely see cats loose in a car but often see dogs, probably because the stupid things would freak out <weg>) so we might not need to feed the dogs for a few nights, if they happen to stray into *our* garden.
'Hmm, they looked like cats but tasted of salmon and chicken?' ;-)

Yeah, I remember fishy pussy-breath.

I've never know a cat that would eat ham, much less love it to the point of ignoring it being dosed with something. However, I suspect the real reason for the difference is that cat are pure carnivores while dogs are omnivores. That probably makes them more willing to eat things they are not entirely familiar with.
Hehe.

I've know quiet a few thatv have. One of them was 'owned' by a couple of vegitarians that used to buy it for their cat.
Cats will eat things they like including cheese, I've heardcx blowing on their face makes them swallow, but I;ve always managed to crush pills up and mix them into the jelly or gravy of the cat food.
Some pets are better behaved and better individuals than humans are.
Olives are good. Every cat I've known loves olives.
