    I got a nutritional supplement from the vet once that said “Highly Palatable!” like that was a real selling point. This must have been from the same company.

    Elvis is about to blow a gasket. The endorsements on the bag of Kebble remind me of those old dental commercials. Like “9 out of 10 dentists recommend brushing your teeth” or if you ever view any of those old school tobacco 1950s ads on the web that say 9 out of 10 doctors prefer Chesterfields (or Camel/Lucky Strike etc). Of course the tobacco company just had to round up 10 doctors, 9 of which chain smoked Chesterfields to make this a factual statement so that it was not false advertising….

    Anyhow, the Man needs to really sleep with one eye open until he goes back to the supermarket and gets a bag of Kibble!

    Childhood memory: my dad was something of a practical jokester, and one day he taught us impressionable kids that the definition of “mediocre” was “amazing, wonderful, fantastic” etc. So, every dinner ended with us saying “Thanks mom, dinner was mediocre!” “You can make a really mediocre spaghetti!” “Mom, that was the most mediocre meal I’ve ever had.” Yeah, mom wasn’t impressed; it took a couple of years before the real definition sunk in.

    Out cats usually narf down the new food the first day, then turn their nose up at it the next day, and if we get their old food, they give us “The Look”

    It’s like in the anime shows, where they show a very realistic TV only its “Sory” not “Sony” or “Samsame” instead of “Samsung”.

    Close but no Cigar.

    Elvis, he fired this shot over your bow. Time to find a pawing solution. No need to mention you kept him awake, which may have led to poor decision making on his part.

    That’s for the Disarmament party and Detente after the reckoning

    “9 out of 10 cats think it’s food.”

    Just not their food.

    Iko the dog will vacuum up whatever food there is, including things not generally considered to be sustenance (Iko is the very definition of the opportunistic eater).

    Giblet, Belle, Mittens and Holly are creatures of habit and taste. Giblet is on special diabetic cat food that Belle likes, but Mittens and Holly ignore. Mittens is on sensitive stomach food that Holly likes but the other two turn up their noses when offered. So we have two separate areas where the we feed the cats. And may God have mercy on your soul if you miss mealtime.

    I strongly doubt that 9 out of 10 cats would consider it food. Was the test group actually composed of 9 small, pointy-eared dogs and one actual cat?

    Thomios: Well, today I wanted to make my famous kibble pie, but today it’s all kebble.

    Bearixia: Oh, that stuff? Well, it’s food, anyway.

    Thomios: Not to worry ham and bacon have no I’s or E’s.

    We have 5 cats in our house and all I can say in regards to this is “No!!!” A detailed explanation of how to introduce a new type or brand of kibble might take too long, so for this forum, just say “No.”

    Panel 3: It looks like the Man is endorsing the ‘product’, and mugging for the camera … Just like one of those cheesy ’70’s commercial:

    “But, Dear! – What’s Kebble made of?!”

    “Ancient FELINE Secret !!”

    Then, the Woman looks straight at the camera and says: "My husband. Some Hot-Shot!! … Here’s his ‘Ancient FELINE Secret’! … KEBBLE !! Which is made TOTALLY out of … "

    Commercial abruptly ends … but I’ll let your minds finish her sentence! … :)

    “9 out of 10 cats agree it’s food.”

    Of course, those 9 cats are feral cats who are used to eating roadkill, so their definition of “food” is pretty broad. The 10th cat lives in a house with humans who feed them real food.

    I know that I’m like what Elvis is doing sometimes, if we don’t have this ONE type of cheese, or a certain brand of bread, however unlike Elvis, i won’t throw a fit (usually) I simply ignore it until either someone else eats it or throws it away.

    I ran out of dry kibble this morning. Now my cats are barn cats and NOT at all picky. However all I had was a can of human grade tuna. They were understandably thrilled. I went out to do some gardening and found a mouse sacrifice laid in front of my Subaru….I think they have made the connection between the food and where it comes from and are trying to appease the tuna bringer.
