Cat Eats
Nothing But Chinese Take Out
A cat called Schimmy refuses to eat anything but Chinese take-aways.
The seven-year-old cat cat's owner Sam Kinsy, who's 18, says the cat's
tastes changed when he ate some of her prawn chow mein.
Ms Kinsy, who's a student in Walsall, says she may have to get a part-time
job to pay for the cat's take-aways.
She said: "It began when I left a prawn chow mein and went to
answer the phone. When I got back Schimmy was purring with delight and
licking his paws. All the food had gone.
"I'm a take-away fanatic myself and eat Chinese probably five
nights a week. But I started making the mistake of leaving Schimmy a
little dish of what I had each night.
"Within days I'd noticed he'd stopped eating his tinned food and
would only have what I brought home. If I didn't give him some, he would
get moody and aggressive.
"So I started getting him small portions of chicken or prawn chow
mein and now he's addicted. He'll only eat Chinese."
Dr Freda Scott-Park of the British Veterinary Association told The
Sun: "It is strange but not at all harmful to him".
