We have cats, if they start associating human food with their food they’ll be all over the counters and tables when you turn around or up in your face when you try to eat. It’s just easier to not associate our food with theirs in their minds at all.
We give them stuff sometimes but it’s a treat, one goes absolutely mad for grocery store rotisserie chicken, and we don’t serve off our plates.
Yup. I made the mistake of trying to switch an older cat to raw food and followed the internets advice of searing the outside so to get them used to it. From that day on kitty knew anything we cooked was edible and you couldn’t turn your back for more than 10 seconds.
