My pond seems to be overrun with frogs so I'll be dining on frogs legs throughout the apocalypse. I also have 3 feral cats. I imagine they'll eat me before I get the chance to catch the buggers.

I did not know there was a preppers topic! I love that sort of stuff!

I'd eat my dogs before I ate a cat. I'd prefer to eat someone else's dog but if needs must, I would. The yappy one would go first.

I don't have cats but id eat my digs I push came to shove. OH has tried dog before he says its ok in a stew.

I shall buy Baldrick's cook book and eat all the cats, dogs, rats and guinea pigs in the neighbourhood.

If my dog ignores all his expensive toys and chews up one more damn skirting board I may eat him just because.

I've had bear. I don't think that's truly carnivorous though? They eat lots of berries etc.

I'm going to train my cats to hunt the millions of wild rabbits that there are around here.

ChristinaParsons · 08/11/2015 21:51

I have a lot of cats. Am now worried that I live next door to who the fuck is Simon???
If you ate my liver you would prob be drunk for days!

ChristinaParsons · 08/11/2015 21:52

Not many bears round here though. Although badger is tasty

headexplodesbodyfreezes · 08/11/2015 21:53

They will have stockpiled cat food. The neighbour's cat, however, definitely fair game ...

PeppaWellington · 08/11/2015 21:57

OT but should we all have prepper names, like halloween names and christmas names? We should bag them now so we are preperly* named for when it all goes pear shaped.

*sorry

I clicked on here thinking it was Christmas prepping and what's the back up plan if Tesco run out of turkeys?

Do Preppers have no idea about sustainable prepping?
I would have thought guinea pig livestock (with view towards ongoing breeding programme) would be an obvious strategy to embrace. Supposed to taste like chicken.

Ragged have you every noticed that anything you wouldn't normally consider eating is said to taste like chicken? Rattlesnake, alligator, hedgehog... Perhaps the chickens are on to something?

Shakey15000 · 08/11/2015 22:16

Well I clicked on the thread thinking it was about poor "preppy" students possibly. Poor preppy students that are skint and hungry. Now that I know what a prepper is, my mind can be well and truly boggled that it's a thing Smile

ChristinaParsons · 08/11/2015 22:17

Guinea pigs make lovely pate! I mean you can turn them into pate, not that they are culinary wizards!

Siwi · 08/11/2015 22:19

Swan tastes fishy.

CheerfulYank · 08/11/2015 22:21

There are lots of bears in my neck of the woods.

OneFlewOverTheDodosNest · 08/11/2015 22:23

My grandma says they had to eat their pet rabbits during a tough winter - I imagine they'd taste better than cats though

wtffgs · 08/11/2015 22:24

How the bleeding hell do you know that Christina? Confused However, I am enjoying the image of wee piggies with chefs hats! Grin

cozietoesie · 08/11/2015 22:27

You can't have cooked it properly, Siwi. When I had casseroled swan it tasted more like venison.
