    My recently deceased cat was obsessed with French fries. We kept him well away from them, but with much effort on our part. He’d absolutely book if he saw you eating them.

    Mine is obsessed with socks… more specifically taking them off my feet after a long day at work. He takes them off as gently as he possibly can and then goes to his bed and just sleeps with it… not chewing it or playing with it… no, no… cuddling and sleeping lol

    Our cat loves dish soap, specifically when it’s foamy. I have to quarantine him in another room if I’m hand washing dishes because he’ll sit by the sink and try to eat the bubbles.

    We thought maybe he had some sort of imbalance that was making him crave it, so we had our vet check it out. All tests came back fine, and he said it’s just a weird quirk and won’t hurt him in small quantities.

    My hound/beagle suffers from coprophagia, and she is relentless about it. The only way to stop her is to follow behind her and pick it up immediately. She’s caught onto that, so she will go way down the hill in the thick brush so I can’t get to it. Only to make a bee-line to it the next time she goes out.

    My dog loves playing fetch with the most random things. Rocks is one of his favourites. He wants to play all the time 24/7, I only exist to play fetch with him at this point. If you don’t play he barks until he gets what he wants.

    My cat is obsessed with the toilet. She gets angry if she misses out on the flush. She doesn’t get in or drink from the toilet. She just watches the flush. Sometimes she stands and screams in the bathroom until I come in and flush so she can watch. Freak.

    My cat loves Pringles. Whenever we get a can of them, we can’t eat them with her in the room, because she’ll jump up and try to eat them out of your hands. We can’t leave a half empty can on the table unattended because she’ll pop it open and stick her head in it. We have no idea why she’s like this, it’s the only human food she goes bonkers over!

    My dog is completely obsessed with golf balls. She’s on the smaller side, so they barely fit in her mouth, but that doesn’t stop her. She loves rolling them down the stairs or off the couch just to watch them bounce and hear the noise, it’s like her own little game, and she’s totally entertained by it.

    Water. They even enjoy getting wet. And the cursor on my computer. They make chittering noises like a cat does to a bird it wants to kill. I can’t let them on my desk anymore, but they will obsessively jump back up anyways and smack my screen. Over and over. I keep telling them that they’re never gonna catch it, but they don’t listen.

    one cat loves the smell of bag balm, i keep a small can in my bathroom and every time I use it, she comes running out of nowhere to smell it, don’t know why.

    Another cat is obsessed with tin foil, so i’ve taken to making tin foil balls and throwing them around the apartment for her to fetch. She also LOVES anything with string, hoodie, pants, shirts, dresses, she sees a string and she’s gonna grab it in her mouth and drag it across the apartment.

    My old man cat, Wally, is only obsessed with food at this point. Chicken is his favorite!

  56. GizmoSled Avatar

    The bathroom sink. She has clean water accessible in a bowl that she and our other 2 cats are fine with drinking from and she doesn’t seem to care about the kitchen sink but if she sees someone going into the bathroom she runs in before the door closes and jumps on the sink. She will then wait for the person to wash their hands and will play with the water, smacking and biting it. If someone puts the stopper in the sink and lets it fill a bit the kitty will pounce the puddle. My biggest fear is that she will figure out how to turn the tap on and flood the bathroom as people sleep.

    My cocker spaniel stares motionless into my laundry basket, she will stare into it for ages, you only then have to tap it and she screams and bites the absolute shit out of the rim. She also stares at small rocks (stones) outside, like literally just zones out and stares at them. Can not snap her out of it unless you grab her. Adorable little weirdo??

    My dog is definitely weirder than most on this subject. She eats used tissues, and only USED tissues. If they have not been used, she ignores them. Asked several vets about it (we travel a lot), they just shrug their shoulders. The tissues come out perfectly turd shaped, so she’s eating them whole. 🤷‍♂️

    He likes to sniff shoes. When I get home from anywhere or someone comes to visit, he rushes to shove his face in their shoes. Cats are weird.

    The other day I had a very small plastic shopping bag and my cat decided it was his best friend in the whole world. He likes to “taste” (not eat, just nibble) on plastic bags and he could carry it around. I took it away and put it up high where he couldn’t reach it to throw it away later, but he learned to jump up where I put it right then JUST to get at it.

    Then I put in in a drawer and ruined his life for about five minutes before he forgot it existed.

    I can’t clean anything with bleach that my cat can get near. That cat could be in a coma and he would wake up the second I clean the toilet.

    My dog will try and get in your pockets. He’ll stuff his snoot in there first and huff too to and see if there’s treats. If they’re anything in tune pocket, he pulls it out.

    Then, it that doesn’t satisfy him, the next step is him chewing off your pocket. He’ll cut the fabric with his back teeth.

    He’s mostly stopped that now. It was a problem for a while though.

  86. MedicineMann710 Avatar

    “Cheek Kisses” she will stick her goddamn adorable snout right up against your lips so you give her a kiss. Also when she gets a new bone she wants to “share it” with you which means she tries to stick a slobbery bone in mine or my wife’s mouth. Her (dog) brother & sister love it, so why don’t we?

  87. Aggressica Avatar

    I remembered another one. My dogs favorite toy is whatever dish rag you’re currently using to wipe up a spill. He’s NUTS about them. His favorite game is also Chase Me! So it’s a 2-in-1 win for him.

    Her orange treat ball thingy. She rolls that thing everywhere even if there isn’t anything in it. But it still comes second to her obsession with me (because I’m the one who fills the ball with treats).

    My dog, a miniature husky/probably border collie (klee-kai) Ty, has 3 favorite toys:

    1: brooms. can’t get enough of brooms. He keeps stealing them and dragging them out through the dog door to hide outside.

    2: those little rubber chair leg thingies. they go on your chair leg so they don’t scrape when you move them. He keeps taking them off our chairs, and throwing them to himself.

    3: Cardboard. While getting new toys in his bark box is great the ABSOLUTE best part of his day is tearing the box to shreds.

    One of my cats absolutely obsesses over searching the kitchen for every possible crumb after I eat. He’s the only cat I’ve ever had who does this.

    If I’m there, he knows I won’t let him, so he’ll wait for hours. I’ve also never seen a cat with such a long memory! It’s to the point that I clean the kitchen thoroughly after every meal, including the entire floor.

    We have a Chiweenie male, about 1 1/2 years old, that we recently took in. He was abandoned outside my daughters house. He’s an adorable , goofy, loveable little fella and smart as a whip. He loves his stuffed toys but one day he discovered a stuffed toy shark that’s bigger than he is that belonged to my wife. It’s soft and plush and he has developed a habit, now, where every night when we go to bed he latches on to the shark, climbs on top or alongside, and nurses on it till he falls asleep. I’m guessing that whoever abandoned him also took him from his Mama before he was properly weened. That’s the only thing that makes sense as he’s too young to be trying to actually mount it. Besides, he doesn’t try to hump it, just suckle on it. But he only does this with the big, stuffed shark. He’s already killed one doing that, we had to get him another and he’s slowly tearing that one up, as well, LOL.

    We have a round soft woven basket that my cat jumps into to tell me she wants a treat. It’s just tall enough that when she’s sitting up, all you see is her eyes and the top of her head. It’s my favorite thing. She keeps all of her toys in it too 🥹

    I have a bearded dragon that LOVES watching shark tank. He will be just hanging out  and as soon as I turn it on, even if he is in his cave, he comes and  he makes sure he has a nice view and will watch it. If you sit in his way he will move to where he can see again. It’s hilarious.  He enjoys other shows aswell, but shark tank really gets him excited.

    My dog loves those big plastic bubbles used in packages. She doesn’t eat them or anything, but she will bite them until each one is popped (“killed”) and then leave them there. If we give her a string of them, she will move from bubble to bubble until each one is “dead.” It’s pretty cute. We don’t give them to her unless we’re right there to watch her, though

    My cat: The crinkly paper strip that you pull off of your panty liners. Everyday she would pull one out of the trash can and I’d find them in weird spots later. One time, I had to replace our stove. When the delivery guy pulled out the old one, there was a big pile of them underneath it. 😭🤣

    She also would go absolutely crazy when I’d bring the grocery bags in. She would act like an airport drug dog looking for the celery. 😂
