I've heard large cats have an instinctive chase-kill-eat-sleep set of instructions. Perhaps yours has stronger cat instincts and needs the chase-kill-before-eat sequence. Ours will make a beeline for the foodball as soon as they recover from a play session. Try playing with them then immediately putting down the food.
Also, when our old cat started loosing interest in food, our vet told us that they won't eat something if they can't smell it. Told us to get the smelliest, stinkiest food we could find. Worked.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Never noticed, but that might explain why some stuff is ignored (like fresh raw eggs, until they are broken).
Also explains why he has to have the week-old half rotten herring from the trashcan

Well, then try Lutefisk. If this isn't smelly enough, then your cat and your vet is playing a joke on you.

Also treat biscuits for dogs - the ones used to train them - are pretty good. They taste like sugarless integral biscuits, which I kind of like.
The wet food usually found in large cheap cans smells like s*t and I never had the desire to taste it. The good stuff on the other hand tastes much better than some discount food for humans I bought.

I just hope the meat is cooked before tasting it.

I actually do that once in a while: Eat one or two of the cat treats while I feed them to the cats.
The missus thinks I'm nuts of course. But I figure: Hey, if they were harmful, would I want to feed them to my cats?
Some of them are totally edible and not bad at all. Others taste like sh*t. I try to avoid giving my cats those who taste like sh*t...

If I were her, I'd step out of the queue, to pick up a large bag of the 'nutritionally complete' My Dog food 
|
|
|
|

I'm reminded of an old episode of Red Dwarf where this guy chooses to eat canned dog food instead of noodles when down to the last pieces of food. He really hated noodles. Probably the better choice then when it comes to nutrition.

If you can eat noodles, you can eat dog food. And viceversa. Basically if you can stand noodles you can stand anything short of Bear Grylls stuff.

Dunno why you sometimes use 'dog food' to name 'gin'.

ROTFLMAO! +5!
I needed a good joke today.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

What makes you think he was joking?

I don't know that he was joking, but I prefer to think that my fellow CPians are too emotionally mature to play such pranks on strangers.
I could, of course, be wrong.

That's just silly. She probably thought a nice, wholesome person such as yourself was shopping for his ailing grandmother or donating to a local animal shelter (Tesco's does have a facility to accept such generosity). Oh, wait, it's you ... that would be even madder ... elephant it is.

Please let this be a true story.
(Not the diet or getting hit by a car part, but the part where you actually told that story...)

Gads, what I wouldn't give to spend a day at the bar swapping tales with you, lad! Unlike most here, I happen to believe that this really happened; it's something I would have said. It brings to mind an impromptu discussion I started once about raising Naugas in the garage as a child. Back then, their hides were quite in fashion, and as I was ad libbing the details of their care and feeding, a fellow on the stool next to me chimed in, elaborating on his own childhood experiences as an amateur Nauga rancher. We had the entire bar rapt with interest in our tales for several hours, and sadly, neither of us was sober enough to write down all we'd said. That's the pity; it would have been an excellent "Raising Naugas for Dummies" book, and we could both have retired by now on the royalties.
I encourage you to learn from my experience, and get to work on a diet book for the masses, to be sold next to the Globe and National Enquirer at the checkout.

I told that to my wife and we laughed so hard that there were tears in our eyes. I can't wait to tell it at our Thanksgiving party today. If you can't make it as a programmer, then you must give comedy a try.
Speaking of which, I heard this one recently:
A tough looking group of hairy bikers are riding when they see a girl about to jump off a bridge, so they stop. The leader, a big burly man, gets off his bike and says, “What are you doing?”
“I’m going to commit suicide,” she says. While he doesn’t want to appear insensitive, he also doesn’t want to miss an opportunity, so he asks, “Well, before you jump, why don’t you give me a kiss?” She does, and it is a long, deep, lingering kiss. After she’s finished, the tough, hairy biker says, “Wow! That was the best kiss I’ve ever had! That’s a real talent you’re wasting. You could be famous. Why are you committing suicide?” "My parents don’t like me dressing up like a girl…”

First and Foremost, I was surprised with so much posting on HONEYMOON.
Many really want it or had a memorable time. I belong to the later.
As for the winner.
1. @den2k88sen sent me email with solution
2. @ManfredRBihy posted an anagram of it. Could not accept it as solution
3. @User-11407112 posted as off hand remark
If @User-11407112 has posted it as solution, he would have been winner. But it was an off hand remark.
So den2k88sen is the ultimate winner.
sorry guys
cheers,
Super
