In reply to the discussion: What weird thing does your dog or cat do? [View all]procon
(15,805 posts)55. My cat, Frosty won't eat kibble from a bowl.
We have to toss every single nugget for him to catch or chase across the floor. He eats about 1/2 cup of grain free kibble per day and I generally portion out about a teaspoon per serving. I think he picked up on this behaviour after I accidentally spilled some kibble off the countertop and it went bouncing everywhere. He loved the new "game".
I fill up his bowl but he still waits, giving me that sad expression until I toss him a piece of kibble. He's actually gotten quite good at catching some pieces in midair, grabbing them between his paws or right in his mouth.
Truth be told; I like watching him, his crazy antics make me smile.
