Do you feed fruits to your pets, /ck/?

>> No.8490372

>>8490360
Cats, no. But because my dog is old as shit, has a difficult time gaining weight, and I want him to enjoy the little time he has left, I'll let him eat just about anything that won't bring him harm. He goes crazy for bananas, blueberries and pineapple.

I had a chocolate lab who would eat the apples that fell off the tree in the back yard. As soon as an apple dropped she would gobble it down. Then she started jumping up to grab the low hangers. Pissed me off because I hardly ever got a fucking apple...

Yes I do. A moderate amount of fruit is actually a natural part of dog's diet.
My dog loves everything, from apples through tomatoes to citrus fruit and mango. She also loves carrots and almost every other vegetable, save for a few exceptions like parsley or salad leaves, which she vigorously wants to eat, but her mouth just scans it out:-)

my cat goes apeshit for certain types of grass found around here. I don't know what the hell species they are so I just call them stick plants

other cats don't give a shit, otherwise I'd monetize that discovery, but it's just him

not exactly fruit I know, in fact he wont eat any people food except very rarely beef jerky (and like just a treat sized morsel)

My dog loves berries, apples, and banana. She also likes dark leafy greens which I think is funny. I should try giving her watermelon as a treat.

My pet rats will eat pretty much anything including fruits. They like applesauce and bananas a lot.

I used to take tennis lessons at my pro's house which had a few acres planted with avocados for tax reasons :P

The pro's golden retriever would race around the yard, even across the court, and devour an avocado the moment it fell, just place the fruit between its paws and lick at it like it was ice cream, until done. That dog had the shiniest most beautiful coat.

I've had dogs that liked a bite of my banana in the morning, or would eat sweet potatoes, but not that keenly, just kind of trusting that if I was eating it, it was probably good. My macaw eats absolutely anything I give her, from chicken to grapes, to spaghetti to herbs. Favorite is watermelon and oranges though, will tip back her head and let the juices run down her throat and make happy noises "mmm"

My guinea pigs seem to eat everything, but I notice that they tend to get picky after having the same thing several times -- leaving items unfinished in favor of other food.

Nothing I've given them has remained uneaten for more than a couple of hours, though.

I just can't believe that, because we had a cat that loved sweeter items over just meats or any other human food in general (he oddly enjoyed a kidney bean now and then too and those farts were hilarious but not pleasant). If they don't taste even a little sweet, why would they choose that over what they should technically want all the time ... just meat. I may be wrong, but I just don't believe that they can't taste any sweet at all. Hell maybe its just mouth feel lol.

I had a cat who loved melon. Any time I tried to eat honeydew, cantaloupe (his favorite), or watermelon, he'd jump up and start stealing pieces off my plate!

He also loved vegetables: asparagus, peas, carrots, potatoes, those canned mixed veggies with lima beans etc., corn. If you fed him Shepherd's Pie he'd go crazy with joy.

>> No.8501332

>>8501318

I feel I should add that he wasn't fed a vegetarian diet, he just stole a lot off our plates because he was 1. a giant cat that could jump really high and 2. spoilt as fuck. As people foods go, he was also a fan of tuna, turkey, salmon, bacon, buttercream frosting, my family's recipe for butter cookies...one time when I was in 3rd grade I left a bowl of Fruity Pebbles and milk unattended and came back to find him eating it.
