Long Void This dude does NOT care about treats

I once gave him a treat and he played with it for days instead of eating it. Churu? Absolutely not. I tried to give him one and he wasn’t interested, thought the tube was the problem so I squeezed it out into his food bowl. He didn’t touch it. All he wants is play time

We have three cats. The youngest prefers to be petted. The other two try to steal each other’s treats.

The funny thing is that he LOVES food. Wakes me up for it even if there’s food in his bowl, but treats? Nah

His health will probably be better off in the long run (not that you pick junk treats, just saying) so that's kind of an upside :3. How about just meat/raw meat?

My boy loves treats but churu was nothing. Not even a lick.

Those handsome folded arms and the tighty whities kill me! Adorable. 🖤

My void isn’t into treats either. And after hearing about how other cats take on Churu, I am relieved my cat does not care about it.

My black formerly feral little girl was about 7 months old when she decided to live with us and in the beginning I gave her 5 treats at a time. Her little head bobbed up and down once for each treat. 5 head bobs and she looked disconcerted when she got less. She has since gained confidence and only gets 2 treats at a time. I don’t think they are that important to her but she loves the attention.

He's got such fancy pants, they're a permanent treat right there!

My kitty doesn’t like salmon 😏 but she likes tuna. Go figure! It’s been trial and error, for sure

My void has never cared for treats, either. He loves to play and will cry if he's not fed on time, but he has never cared for treats, even churus!

He looks like a scrummy little snack himself.

Looks like some Prince sitting in his otherworldly castle.

It’s actually a llama

u/Character-Debt1247 Oct 07 '24

Same here. Mine just looks at them like I dropped broccoli in his bowl. No moist or dry treats. Toys only. Preferably tossed very high.

u/StructureMage Oct 06 '24

my cat is like this. does not like treats, does not like cat beds, does not like milk, fish, or toys. does like sleeping in garbage. i think he might be an ascetic

Some live to eat, others eat to live

Some pets are not treat or food motivated. Many I know are attention oriented.

u/sproutsandnapkins Oct 06 '24

My black cat does not care about treats either! But will eat just about any food and her sister’s food too!

Now that sister, she is very very picky about food but WILL eat just about any treats!

Go figure! Cats! 🤪😹

u/CypripediumGuttatum Oct 06 '24

My cats will eat all of yours cats treats for him. Also any cheese you might leave unattended, or chicken you glance away from momentarily…

u/Top-Breakfast6060 Oct 07 '24

Stunning void.

u/vocaligifted Oct 07 '24

This first pic is my favorite 🥹💚🖤🤍 The color contrast of his fur the bed and his green eyes poppin. He’s so pretty 🥰

u/SonataNo16 Oct 07 '24

For 9 years my cat avoided treats. Walked away from Churu. But she begs me for these kind called Fruitables that I discovered a couple years ago.

u/Friendly-Channel-480 Oct 07 '24

I have one cat out of many that wasn’t even particularly interested in food. However he was so loving he ate them just to please whoever was giving them to him. He lived for love and loved his home.

What a sophisticated man🥰

u/blessed769501 Oct 07 '24

My cats never ate treats either until the churro packs came out❤️

u/RogerSmith111 Oct 07 '24

His ass is NOT listening

u/have_got_cat Oct 07 '24

Your void is broken dude.

2

u/noeminnie Oct 07 '24

My void is the same ! She's extremely difficult. The only "treat" she likes is butter 😂.

But all she is interested in is play time haha

u/Pitiful_Night3852 Oct 07 '24

You have a very wise void. He wants no treats. He wants you!

2

u/PuddingWave Oct 07 '24

Funny enough, I had a black kitty who refused all treats, all human food, and all premium food. He only ate Fancy Feast. If I tried to give him other food, he pushed it all the way to his litter box. It was his passive aggressive way to tell me he thought the food was crap and crap belongs in the crap box.

u/East_Situation5904 Oct 07 '24

That’s hilarious

u/PuddingWave Oct 07 '24

He was a very opinionated boy.
