One of my cats ate spaghetti bolognaise and garlic bread off my plate in the kitchen once! I caught them and they carried on eating it so i video recorded it on my phone, so funny seeing a cat chew on garlic bread. It must have been a taste sensation! :hihi:

My dog molly was once caught chewing on a bar of soap! :gag:

My other dog pippa loves to stick her head in the cat litter tray and eat cat poo!!!!!!:gag::gag::gag: That is the most minging thing I have ever seen!

What about your furries?

Our Susie likes to eat plastic :loopy:, Tigger likes anything that's on your plate and not in his dish, chilli used to be a favourite. Honey loves beans, thankfully she doesn't sleep in our room, feel sorry for the kids though :hihi:. Sasha likes to eat the dogs minced tripe :gag: They all love tuna or salmon but if I give them sprats they fetch them back to me :suspect: As for the dog, she is just a dustbin and eats everything but she seems to have a liking for the bags of sugar and bread :confused:

The wierdest thing that I've ever heard of a dog having a passion for was the lavender variety of Shake n Vac. She's long dead now (and not as a result of ingesting Shake n Vac either!) but she would eat it at every opportunity, complete with the container!

Sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news but chocolate is poisonous to cats just like it is dogs, just thought I had better mention it in case you didn't know.

This may be so, but our lurcher seems to be imune. In his time he has eaten two whole boxes of belgian chocolates, a whole box of quality street, 6 pieces of laxative chocolate and a loo blue (amongst a host of other things). None of these things were easily available to him, but his thieving skills are honed to perfection. In the case of the chocolates, he had to mountaineer up the book shelves, in the case of the laxative chocolate, he pushed his way into a bedroom and broke into a guest's zipped hold-all. He suffered no reaction whatsoever. He leads a charmed life!

At this moment I would like to point out that my friend who had the dog who ate Shake n Vac also did everything she could to prevent the pooch from getting to it (in the end stopping it being in the house at all). All it ever did for the dog was give her very strangely perfumed poo for a couple of weeks afterwards!

I had a cocker spaniel before the dogs I have now. He used to steal my pants (no one elses) and my socks and eat them. Many times I've picked up after him and seen a full sock hiding in the turd

My cat Merlin had a major thing for houseplants and would eat any of them that she could get a hold of, but most of the ones around my house were totally harmless to her (mainly because I was sensible enough to look up which plants are toxic and get rid of them as soon as it became apparent that she was going to eat them).

The thing that worried me was one Christmas I went out and collected loads of holly that was covered in berries. I put down the great big bundle of holly in the living room and went to go and fetch the ribbon for tying it up and when I got back all of the berries had gone. Merlin was back asleep on the sofa in the same place as she was when I got in but strangely didn't want her dinner that night!

My cats have a tendancy to lick up salad cream. If I make a sarnie and some spills on the side that I don't notice... Minnie or Merlin go straight for it! YUK! Medusa.. we both named our cats merlin (She's all black and it just matched. :hihi:) What made you call your's Merlin? People think i'm stupid!

My Merlin (also a girl) was named after the Rolls Royce Spitfire plane engine, after her ability to fly round the room at mantelpiece height. The other alternatives were Hillary and Bonington, since she was also a really good climber (up your leg).

:hihi: People think i'm mad for calling them what I do.. We had TC, Mrytle, Trytle, Minnie, Mickey, Merlin and 'that one' She never got a proper name from us, she ran away the first time we let her out!!! Tc died. Mrytle found a new home somewhere.. same for Trytle, Minnie is still here and Merlin but Mickey she just seemed to slowly stay away for longer periods of time, started with 2 days, then mounted up to 2 months. My OH followed her one day, she went to someones house round the corner and the kids were playing with her, and he knocked on the door and asked if they were feeding her and they came out with "Yes, she's our cat. We bought her from a young lad saying his mum wouldn't let him keep her" Her children had become attached so we decided we'd leave her there. We checked it all out and the house was brill so couldn't do it to her kiddies!!

I have been quite lucky with mine, but my brothers Airdales were notorious for stealing, they consumed:

A bowl of sugar, stolen from the side
A full rack of "hot" mince pies
The top tier from a wedding cake
The sponge bit of a kitchen mop
A plate of curry
A full loaf of bread.

my dog will sit staring at the wall outside then if he sees a spider he will gently knock it on to the floor with his poor then eat it!!!
He once stole a cake out of the cupboard. the grease-proof paper and the box remained in the cupboard looking untouched, untill i went to get a slice of cake and found it missing!!
He gives himself away because if he has done anything he knows he shouldnt, he will look at it quickly giving himself away!!! lol

Angel the BC had to have charcoal because she ate her flea collar - lesson learnt after the 2nd one, she has the drops now.
Her fave treat - and the only thing she will beg for is a segment of orange.

Ellie the yorkie insists on eating the plaster off the wall in the kitchen.
