Mine loves watermelon & pineapple...little nut.
Cats often have one or more weird food tastes. I remember opening a can of sauerkraut and the cat, hearing the can opener begged. I offered her a little and she ate it. Another cat would eat peaches.
I have had multiple cats who like hot Cheetos.
Mine likes Queens of The Stone Age and Oasis.
Slingshot that cat back to the early aughts
😝

I'm sorry...but 😂
What’s worse is that she’s the only cat I’ve ever owned who tried to eat my chickens :(
Humm Big Hunter, carnivore
Why did I hear that “well well well” in Uncle Ruckus’ voice lmao
Same 🤣🤣

Its because watermelon is tasty
Best answer thus far!
I’d like to think they can tell it’s hydrating too
Cats are weird like that. Mine like peas for some reason. He will also happily trample you for some Japanese rice crackers. And then he turns his nose up at chicken. Like my dude, you're an obligate carnivore, you literally cannot be vegetarian, why are you like this?
Peas are so good, lil dude has his priorities straight
Mine will eat the peas in their cat food, but only if I mash them. My tortie girl loves romaine lettuce, though, the weirdo.
I had 2 cats that loved chicken, but one wanted it raw, and the other one would only eat it if it was cooked. Lovely bunch of weirdos!
My void Nero likes 🍉 too.
Cats don’t actually have taste buds to experience sweet. The hypothesis is your cat is thirsty or rather enjoys getting water satiation through eating the “flesh” of the watermelon than the water bowl. Wild cats actually get much of their water intake through the consumption of their prey and less through drinking water directly.
Yep, the same way domesticated house cats get water through their wet food.
Part of that another side of it is that there's actually a social eating aspect.
Every cat i ever owned if I'm eating something and I'm not at the table. It knows it's okay to come up and check out what i'm doing.
Ninety percent of the time it feels like the reaction is what are you eating, and ooooo, can I try that?
My family had a twenty year old cat named zot. She would literally eat anything. It wasn't that she actually wanted the food. It was just that she wanted a little pice of it and then would plop down next to you and just kind of enjoy the moment.
So I always saw it as a mixture of trust curiosity flat out , just liking the food that you're eating and a little bit of teaching the human to do the trick.
My grandmother used to tell me about a cat she had that loved cantaloupe.
I had a black cat that liked to eat Doritos!!!
My black cat also likes watermelon! He will try and fight me for a bite if I have a whole slice
Because it’s uh… he’s uh… uhh….
a cat that eats healthy😝
I had one that would have killed for canteloupe... apparently some cats have a thing for melons. One of the cats I have now really likes chewing on discarded corn cobs.
Because it's delicious.
Cuz it's a black cat 🤷♀️
Ok i laughed
Glad someone did finally
Yes. This. 😆
I'm glad you said it my void loves every food that is a black stereotype but I'm to scared to say It at the risk of being downvoted
He probably likes it because watermelon is full of water
Because thirsty. One of my boys loves licking apple slices but won't actually bite the apple, he just wants the juice lol
Cuz it's delicious AF
My mini panther (RIP), LOVED cantaloupe...why? Idk, prob same reason we have fav foods...it was yummy to her!
My cat likes lettuce. He’s also eaten a cheerio 🤷🏼♀️
My cat loves mangoes, beets, and pineapple.
I’m going to have to see if he likes watermelon.
My cat likes Vcut or any junk foods (piattos)
My other cat likes to eat kangkong or any leafy goods
Melon has some kind of pheromone/smell that is similar to fresh meat…
My cat LOVES watermelon he gets quite aggressive whenever we bring some out 😂
Well Well Well
I had a cat that liked watermelon, cantaloupe and peas. She absolutely loved bacon.
Had a cat that liked watermelon too
Probably cause it’s cold!
My ginger loves melon, water, honey, musk, whatever. Never seen the like.
Are you asking or is that kitten asking?
Pretty sure Oliver is just as confused as I am
They like what they like. One of mine liked apple sauce and jello.
Same, and honeydew, raspberries
Cats are so strange. Mine hates anyting fishy,she just doesn't eat fresh fish or anything with fish flavour. She eats a little bit of chicken and that's it. Her real brother would eat anything,exept fruit.
Oliver is a very handsome lil boy :)
I had heard mentions of watermelon giving cats diarrhea. Is there any truth to that?
I very much doubt it. However, it could be different for every cat (mine didn’t receive diarrhea after eating the watermelon)
why does the other cat have the eyes of a Victorian era orphan
I don’t know. Oliver is a mysterious creature
Actually sugars aren't really good for cats.
“I hate that fuckass cat, watermelons are bad for them now”
-God
Fun fact - wild cats do actually eat small amounts of fruit if they find it. Usually stuff like berries. But yeah they definitely shouldn't have a lot of sugar.
This is why berries are good as they are low in it!
My cat loves blueberries. He only gets 3 though, any more and he just makes a mess.
Lol funny.
Because cat. Voids are all running orange cat software.
Same reason my cat likes apple turnovers? lol
My ragdoll mix LOVES watermelon (and many other fruits and veggies).
Mine love it too
I dont know but my cat really likes leafy greens, kale, lettuce. If we give it to him, he might play with it and bat it around a bit but eventually eats it. He doesn't like any other human food, I've offered it to him and he's always uninterested lol
Materwellon
My mum's cat likes butter. And ketchup. And paper.
But then acts like she hates cat food 🙄
Anyone’s cat loves coconuts too?
My cat always ask for one or two noodle whenever I am eating Maggie...
I dont think it has to do anything with the fact that its black.
Crunchy
Iz sweet wif a lil cronch
Why not? 😸
My great uncle’s cat snapped seaweed from my hand when 5yo me was going to take a bite, cat do what cat do and baffled you by robbing your snacks is one of them.
My cat loves cilantro and plastic bags
Why do you like Watermelon?…probably similar reasons for him.
I had a cat that went insane for black beans out of the can.
My brother had a cat that loved green olives
My brother had a cat that liked green olives.
Uhhhh.... I'm not gonna say what I wanna say...
I mean, probably because you let him
