    No point in letting 3 grams of good meat go to waste.

    It's ok to eat fish, becuase they don't have any feelings.

    Something in the way, mmm
    Something in the way, yeah, mmm

    Your domesticated cat will probably play with it but not eat it.

    Goldfish for starters, cat for mains.

    Hamster for dessert.

    Don't they make dogfood out of horse meat? Just think: your pouch could be quaffing Blossom, your recently deceased pony in every nutritious biteful.

    Its better than feeding it live goldfish. Why not get a shark the same size and have 3 rounds with the cat on shark - land, water (gotta be fair) then one in zero gravity - to see who's tougher. Winner eats loser.

    If you had a pet salmon and it died, would you eat that?

    For lolcats. No one said you had to feed it or look after it.

    Nice. Diet includes glue, hair, photos, dandruff and book bindings. Was god hungover deciding the diet for this creature?

    Where I used to live, my neighbours practically had their own zoo. They had all sorts of animals, including goldfish. One day one of the goldfish died, so the middle child, who was about 10, got the fish, wrapped it delicately in toilet paper, put it in her hand......and squeezed!

    Goldfish guts. Nice. I say feed it to the cat. What's the worst that could happen? The cat could get sick and die? Let's face it, it's a cat, it's not a huge loss.

    (I have a feeling I'll be getting a call from the gardai now regarding my threatening behaviour towards cats......Cats are more important than people after all!)
