3 Laura 12.27.07 at 8:35 pm

Maybe this kitty could swap recipes with Winston!

4 scigirl 12.27.07 at 8:41 pm

My two dogs will fight me to the death for an ear of corn. Summers are hard at my house…

5 Candace 12.27.07 at 8:43 pm

Too cute!

6 berthaslave 12.27.07 at 9:00 pm

Can we PLEASE make “nomnomnom” a category (or “nawm nawm nawm” if you prefer)? It’s my favorite CO phrase (besides kronsche and snorgle and leeck).

That kitteh is corny as Kansas in August, I tell ya what.

8 Willow 12.27.07 at 9:24 pm

You did WHAT with my corn?

9 crackjob 12.27.07 at 9:27 pm

The spaced-out eyes… The scrunched-up nose…

Je suis ded.

I see that this little Japanese kitteh has another video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC58wgPYU_I
where she’s eating nori (seaweed)–a personal fave of my kitteh–but it’s not as fun because the videographer keeps teasing her with the sheet of nori rather than letting her chomp/nawm/nom/cronche it. Let kitteh eat nori!!!

11 Meghan 12.27.07 at 9:49 pm

My corms. Let me show you them.

12 TexIrishRose 12.27.07 at 9:54 pm

GAH! The kronsched-up nose! I thought my kitteh was the only one who did that…. too kewt!

13 vanessa 12.27.07 at 9:57 pm

so cute. she has the blackest eyes ever!

14 L.C. 12.27.07 at 10:07 pm

Forget the corn! Ima eat that cute baby!!!

15 Jacquie 12.27.07 at 10:23 pm

I’ve heard of the Black-Eyed Peas but the Black-Eyed Kittehs?

Such enthusiasm…I think nawm nawm nawm should be kronche, kronche, kronche!

Leave moi A-LONE…I am eeeeeting!

16 tablemountaingirl 12.27.07 at 10:27 pm

Who knew kittehs could be so enthralled by corn? I have seen them lick lick lick lick lick lick butter before…lick lick lick, but never corn.

:-)

17 Manda Bain 12.27.07 at 11:14 pm

Good roughage for teh kitteh. She’s gonna need a toothpick…
This makes me think of the Corn Game that we would play with the youth I chaperoned from my church when everybody had corn at dinner on trips. Whoever counted the most corn in their poos later won (you were on the honor system…it was church after all) ;-)
Me? I never played.

18 Mrs. Catlabash 12.27.07 at 11:39 pm

This is a riot! Go slow at 0:05 to see kitteh’s fat little cheek positively soaked in buttah. Nawm nawm drip drip nawm drip nawm shluuurp. Yum!

19 Hellbound Alleee 12.28.07 at 12:03 am

Isn’t that a repost from earlier?

20 Mary (the first) 12.28.07 at 12:49 am

omg that smudge on her cheek *is* buttere!! I hope she has a little friend to leeeeck it off, it will be hard for her to reach her own muzzlepousche area… very cute, I must say. Veggie loving kittehs are too much.

21 Annie 12.28.07 at 1:17 am

Crunchity Nom Nom nom
and the wiskerage too.

22 sandy 12.28.07 at 2:07 am

cute video, after watching that go five videos over to the kitten in the blue box. it’s waaaaaay to cute!

23 BlueCat 12.28.07 at 2:28 am

My tabby, Radar, loves him some corn. He’s never had it straight from the cob, dripping with buttah though. Most corn is so sweet you might as well feed them candy. Which he would also eat. And salt and vinegar potato chips. And corn chips with salsa.

Contrary to what most people would think, cats in the wild will eat fruits, vegetables, and grasses to supplement their diets. They also eat the stomachs of their prey, usually herbivores, to get at the partially digested vegetable matter.

This behavior give them essential nutrients like Omega3 fatty acids and helps them shed intestinal parasites (usually worms) which is why cats so often eat grass and other sharp bladed plants. (Cats, dogs and most animals, produce enough Vitamin C in their bodies to sustain them, but they usually try to supplement more through their diet).

What is it with kittehs and corn?

Love the “I’m so into mah corm I have to close my left eye” look!

32 cerise 12.28.07 at 10:45 am

my cat likes canned corn

33 Sammys Mom >^..^ 12.28.07 at 11:35 am

Sweet & Salty yum :D

34 Barbarella 12.28.07 at 11:39 am

One of my cats loves canned sweetcorn too… and he eats it off my pizza. :)

35 Sammys Mom >^..^ 12.28.07 at 11:43 am

Squeeeeeeeeeee!

*clears throat* But on a more serious note: For anyone who wants to know, please be careful with feeding corn to your pet (cat or dog). It is usually the main food allergy culprit for continuous itching & scratching and constant skin biting/licking. In fact, check their kibble bag’s ingredient list and see if corn meal (or a variation of it) is listed near the top. Unfortunately, this affects a lot of poor, unsuspecting wittle house-kittehs and puppehs :(

Yep,sorry to break it to ya’s, but it does make for extreeeeeeeemly cute footage!

36 Ninjin 12.28.07 at 1:52 pm

Nom nom nom nom.

37 chanpon 12.28.07 at 2:17 pm

Hey, isn’t this the original nom nom kitty?

38 LuvBJones 12.28.07 at 3:13 pm

Dat is teh peenkeest noze I ever seen…

*collapse*

39 stephie 12.28.07 at 3:50 pm

ewwww! did you just say off your pizza? what?

40 Lone 12.28.07 at 3:54 pm

A variant of peanut butter on a cheeseburger…(makes me weep with sorrow).

Cat teeth + corn nom = fail.

41 jen 12.28.07 at 6:00 pm

awwww. i had a cat who loved corn. she would only eat fresh corn, but it had to be removed from the cob. nom nom nom indeed!

42 CheshireCat 12.28.07 at 6:31 pm

My kitteh nawms corn too, but he usually takes it buttered and in a kitty-sized bowl, I wonder if he’d lower himself to eating it right off the cob?

43 Kim 12.29.07 at 12:55 am

That is going to be one messy litterbox to clean up the day after that meal.

44 Theresa 12.29.07 at 3:07 am

My nephew this morning forbade me from saying “nom nom nom.” What nerve!

45 Subhangi 12.29.07 at 5:44 am

Mmmm… corn.

46 warrior rabbit 12.29.07 at 7:29 am

Hey Stephie,

You’ll probably freak at this, but one of the best pizza toppings I ever had was corn and tuna fish (in Germany). I am an adventurous eater, and the risk-taking is often rewarded. This was one of those times. No, really. Sounds weird, tastes great.

47 darkshines 12.29.07 at 9:38 am

Its not the corn on the pizza thats freaking us out, its the fact that you allow the cat to eat from the same pizza you are eating. Cats lick their butts, eat their own puke and roadkill, I would keep that mouth well away from my food!

48 Mina 12.29.07 at 10:37 am

Thats cute. My cat Lacey (RIP)..loved corn. Unfortunately, its not highly digestible as pet food manufacturers would like us to believe. As an occasional snacky, it wouldnt harm kitty, but its not good for their tummies. Pet foods like Iams, Purina, Pedigree, Beneful, Ol’ Roy, are extremely bad for pets because they are so devoid of actual meat. Follow the links on my personal website or google “the truth about pet food”.

49 Furbabies 12.29.07 at 5:16 pm

What a good kitty, eating your vegables. Be sure to floss after corns ’cause stuff gets stuck in you toofs.
