We love vegetables!

Have you ever seen cats who love vegetables? Dusty not only loves persimmon, but also most green leafy things. If you don't believe me, take a look at these photos:





You can clearly see from the photos that Dusty is in a frenzy to start munching. Kuro will eat a little (maybe just because Dusty is) but soon gets bored and walks away.  On the other hand, Dusty loves leaves and will come running when I bring vegetables home from the shop. I still don't know if he can SEE they are green, or he can SMELL them?

The only thing they don't like is pale lettuce such as iceberg lettuce. In the top photos they are eating broccoli shoots, and in the lower ones, the green part from the top of Chinese cabbage. It is impossible to leave the cabbage on the kitchen bench because he will try to eat it all day!

Last summer I did buy a pot of cat grass from the pet shop, but they played with it more than ate it.

frenzy = very excited, very active
