Hmm. I really had thought that the cats would like steak.

After going to the Texas Roadhouse steak restaurant, Lis and I had a couple ounces of medium-rare steak left over. So we cut it up into cat-bite-sized pieces and brought it home.

We just put it into the cats' dishes, and gave it to them. They looked at it, sniffed it, walked around and traded dishes to sniff at the OTHER cat's dish, looked up at us quizzically. They went back and forth sniffing each dish and looking at us in a confused manner.

Then Nora made a "burying" motion with her front paw and walked away.

. . . yeah. No steak for our cats, I guess.

My pair won't touch dead cow, even when it comes in a tin marked "cat food." It just doesn't seem to be something in which they're interested, unlike tuna, which I think you've observed in the past is just about the last likely thing for a cat to encounter in the wild ever. If we order sushi, we have to make sure there's an order of tuna sashimi to split with them.

Yeah, it was the same with most of the cats we had while I was growing up. It seemed to make sense at the time on the grounds that none of them was likely to bring down a cow.
