First: my cousin used to eat the green dog biscuits and poop out green all the time, and she turned out fine. Well, for the most part.

Second: I ate dry cat food once in a desperate attempt to get my friend’s moody (and starving) cat to eat. It didn’t work, and I only threw up a little. And I turned out FANTASTIC.

Hey classic (well into my family at least) I have a picture of me baby, about two years old, happilly munching on cat’s food. To info, at the moment, Klaxon was next to me to make sure I cleaned the plate XD

My mother has told me that I once tried a piece of dry cat food as a small child, though I have no memory of the occasion. I also occasionally sampled gerbil food… a peanut or a sunflower seed, never the pellets or vitamins. Doesn’t seem to have done me any harm, luckily. Unless its effect on humans is to make them kooky and obsessive-compulsive, but I’m pretty sure I was that from the beginning.

Oh, and Theo – I agree about ramen being Student Chow. Pity most of the flavourings have meat.

FYI My brother worked for Purina and told me that pet food does not have the same safety standards as human food. so there is a real risk of salmonella and other bacteria. So in case that little guy really was eating cat food, he should stop.

I actually DID eat cat biscuits last MONTH! They were Vegan ones and I just had to taste one. The cat pulled the same face as me, hehe

20 years ago I baked a great big cat-biscuit cake (for the cat, of course) and my grandma was very upset. But this little boy would like it as a birthday cake and he could share it with the kitty. Maybe they have the same birthday. That would be neatsomes.

Punce, I did the milk bone thing too, a little bland as I recall, and there was a treat for horses that was called Apple Love. Apple Love was actually tasty! It tasted kind of like Apple Jacks, which curiously don’t taste much like apples at all.

I’m reminded of Aunt Bethany’s lime jello mold in “Christmas Vacation.” Complete with the Kitty Chow garnish around the sides. Whatta dingbat.

“I pledge alligeance, to the flag, of the United States of America…”

“And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air…”

When i was little (around 4 or so), my grandparents kept a candy dish with Liver Snaps in it for the dog. I used to eat them too and remember liking them…lol Definitely couldn’t do that now though…ugh.

oh, and canned kitty food totally smells dee-lish. well the chunky kind in gravy, anyway. some of it smells like roast and gravy. it always took all of my power not to just take my tiny tongue and taste a little morsel when i was young.
