Lasagna-Eating Cat is the Real-Life Garfield!

By Alex in Animal, Food & Drinks on Sep 14, 2009 at 3:18 am


Sofia Atrill’s cat Humphrey is the real life version of the cat comic character Garfield: he eats only lasagna!

Just like the character Garfield, Humphrey the cat refuses to eat anything else and consumes three portions of the pasta dish a day.

The bizarre obsession started when Humphrey was a kitten and stumbled across a plate of lasagne.

His owner, Sofia Atrill, from North London, says: “In the beginning I tried to alter the recipe and make it with cat food instead of the British beef mince my husband and I enjoy but of course he noticed.”

    Charlie the 16 year old buddy kitty eats raman, corn, and won't leave me alone if I've cooked lima beans! Go figure huh?

    I would've expected it to turn out fatter with a lasagna-only diet.

    I've heard that tomatoes are extremely poisonous to cats. If you're going to feed them lasagna, don't use tomato sauce!

    My cat eats chili. Just not the beans, he licks them clean of sauce though.

    what is wrong with people that they let this happen in the first place? the cat did not naturally come programmed to eat lasagna.

    Humphrey the cat refuses to eat anything else

    More like Humphrey's owner refuses to feed him anything else. Does she think Humphrey will starve himself if she stops the lasagna and replaces it with a bowl of Cat Chow?
