Starbucks delivered their new “healthy choices” breakfast menu to The Consumerist this morning, and, falling blindly into their free breakfast trap, we all tried it out. A taste review will follow, but for now, just know that for some reason, my cat, Captain Duvel Moneycat, loves Starbucks new “Perfect Oatmeal.” Seriously,he was freakin’ on this bowl, it was disturbing. I took it away shortly after taking this exploitative photo.

just dont give them too much. as said they aren’t meant to eat much grain.
I had a family cat could tell when cantaloupe was cut open … from three floors up. Okay, wow.
Another cat somehow knew when cream cheese was unpacked … from a whole block away. No kidding. We ran “scientific tests” on this one too.
So to see an Oatmeal Cat use claws to keep “his” special treat from going away? no, I’m not suprised.
The amazing thing is, Ben probably had oatmeal before … but only the Starbucks version (with addictive drugs added) truly drew his felines’ attention — somehow I’m not suprised. After all, a salad from McDonalds’ has 7x the sugar of one from a grocery store. Makes it pretty simple huh?
Still, seeing my 16 yr old cat go crazy over tuna will just plain and simply never get old.
I thought cats only ate cheezburgers.
you can buy a ten pack of instant oatmeal for under three dollars…oh wait this is Starbucks clientele, carry on.
We have two cats, and I have enjoyed reading all these funny cat stories very much. Indeed, there is no finer creature than the housecat. Now I need to see if ours like oatmeal too.
not being a cat, i prefer my oatmeal to resemble oats, not slimy mush!it’s all about the oat/water ratio…try this out and see what you think! i can’t say your cat will like it…and then again add enough cream and you may get some nice photo’s yourself!

Captain Duvel Moneycat is like the Black Elvis. He took what other LOLCats generously sowed and made it into his own, lip-curling, hip-swaying, rarely seen but always discussed (indignantly by the Olds) fashion.
Or, CAN I HAZ A LIL MOR XCITEMINT?
Late to the party (Cat Party?) but thought I’d share that my cat Bearzini The Great (she looks like a little bear!) eats really weird people food (for a cat)
Things Bearzini the Great has eaten:
- Peas
- Green Beans
- An entire bowl of Ceasar Salad
- Pretzels
- Doritos
- Cheetos
- Captain Crunch
- Cheese of any and all kinds (the stinkier the better)
- Black Olives
- Pita Bread
- Carrots
- Oatmeal (peaches and cream only though
- Twizzler Pull and Peels
- Malteasers
- Cherries
- Poutine
- the foam from any drink that has foam
- orange pop
… Pretty much anything you leave un-attended for more then 30 seconds really. … I can easily see cats going nutso for Starbucks.
