Speaking of animals and food oddities, my dog used to carry his food one mouthful at a time out to the living room so he could eat around us. He'd drop it on the floor and then leisurely eat it and go back for more.
My cat eats a few bites of food then finds a string, swallows it down a good bit, then pulls the string back up from her throat and takes a few more bites of food. This continues for her whole meal.
There's nothing more disgusting than stepping on her food string. It's cold and wet. So gross.
That is bizarre! Do you think she might have weird stomach acid production? Like, maybe she uses the string to evacuate some sort of gross stomach fluid? I am going to lose sleep over this
That is uniquely peculiar, but somehow completely normal cat behaviour. As in, I'm sure she is the only cat that does that, but they all have one equally strange habit.
