To ask if de-frosted Xmas turkey, take-away rice, peas and onion gravy constitutes a proper dinner?

It appears that my human is clearing out the freezer and tomorrow's meal consists of sausages (circa 2012) and some sort of bizarre polenta cake.

Should I be worried about the lack of nutritional value in my meals for the next few days? And what is the worst most delicious meal you have been fed?

You should teach your human a lesson. Whenever mine gives me something I don't like I go and hunt my own and then leave bits of it smeared all over the kitchen floor.

That sounds pretty good to us! Better than the dry mix we get on a daily basis. The best part is the left overs!

If you don't find the standard of meals acceptable you may need to retrain your human...try leaving some puke outside the bedroom door for an early morning lesson. My human just loves stepping in it when she can't see without her glasses on Grin

If you don't like the defrosted out of date leftovers that your human feeds you I find leaving two nice big watery poo's either end of the bath gets the message across perfectly to keep it fresh human!

Failing that, just sit on the back of the sofa right next to your human at perfect head height and let off the most disgusting smelling farts known to man. My human even named herself after this habit of mine on a parenting site. Grin

Whothefuckfarted's cat#2 I do that too and I'm a dog Grin

And I could choose to puke on the kitchen floor but much prefer the lovely cream rug in the living room.

I've got my human completely trained. Lovely purple shiny sachets of whiskas that cost her about £18 a week. None of this crappy leftover nonsense that you describe.

It depends. Is your human planning on feeding that stuff to you, or to itself? If to you then definitely not. If to itself then who cares? Calories, innit?

Since horrible penguin73 put me on stupid, disgusting (and very expensive) dry diet cat food I've made friends with the old lady at the end of the road who gives me a tin of condensed milk and some real food whenever I visit her. Penguin keeps asking her to stop but I'm far too cute for her to resist....

Umm YABVU!

If in doubt: EAT IT! That's my motto.

Best meal I ever had: 6 raw eggs plus the cardboard container they come in (my human obviously left them on the kitchen counter for me).

I also love birdseed- turns my poop seedy for days!

If in doubt: eat it! What could go wrong?!

I recently overheard my humans discussing the defrosting of some pork chops and fish that they can't be arsed to make into fish pie and cooking it for me.

I may or may not like it as I am quite possibly the fussiest and non greedy labrador on the planet!

If I don't like I will get fed something else as my female human is a proper soft touch where I am concerned.

Only if she leaves it in the plastic, that's the best bit.

My best treat recently was a whole packet of raw bacon left open on the worktop and just yesterday, a packet of skittles that human child left in reach. Chewy but tasty!
