We used to keep a spare roll in the freezer for just such occasions. OMG | :OMG:

Years ago, we had a cat called "Microwave the cat in orange sauce" - don't ask, it's a long story - and I brought home a bag of small, very hot chillies from the Chinese Supermarket and spread them out to dry on a tray.

Micro stole one, and proceeded to eat it (he was that kind of cat). For the next hour, he walked round the house gulping frantically, and with his eyes wide and bulging...

But that wasn't the "good bit", oh no. It took him four visits and 48 hours to use the litter tray. Each time he would enter, assume the position, and begin. Only for his legs to start shaking, a "mweeeeeep!" noise to be emitted from the front end and an immediate cessation of efforts...

The weird thing was he got a taste for them, and a year later he would steal them happily, and even eat the Scotch Bonnets directly off the bush...
