I have decided to apply for a job in a Chinese pet food laboratory - as a taster. These humans have been testing what flavours we like best using chicken liver spray.
Now chicken liver - or other liver - is what I like almost best in the world, though my human says that it is toxic if I eat too much of it too often. Just a tiny taste is all that I should have.
But purrhaps if I was in that laboratory I would get much more of it....
So what were their findings? Only what we cats know very well indeed. We don't like sweet. We don't even taste sweet. We like savory or unami (as they call it.) The meatier the taste the more we like it.
That's why we have to train our humans to buy us the most expensive cat food - expensive because there is more real meat in it and less carbs.
And while I mention this, it's amazing that I can successfully train my human in this way. I don't have to go to the supermarket with her. She just does what I have told her to do
even though I am not there to make her do it. This is long distance training... we are experts at this.Want to brush up on training techniques? Read my book, One Hundred Ways for a Cat to Train its Human. Buy it here. It really works.
OMG! I love this book! I've read it many, many times - it helped me train my human to purrfection :)
ReplyDeleteWow! My favorite book! I'm a rescue, but when I got adopted by these people, I've seen they have a whole collection of your uncle's books, George! Guess, my predecessors were either big readers or in love with your uncle! I think they were in love, as some of the books are signed by your uncle :)
