    Story time: We had a cat named Mowie that absolutely loved bread and pasta. If you gave her a bowl of plain pasta she would eat it voraciously, even growl if you got close to her while she ate. She could finish a small bowl off in a minute. I have never seen a cat take suck big bites either.

    We had to get a bread box because she would tear open the tops of loaves and eat the crust. It was kind of annoying but also funny because she would be on a loaf as soon as you took it out of the grocery bag. All bread had to go immediately into the bread box. This is how I know Garfield was based on a real cat.

      Yeah my cat i had as a kid loved bread. He was always ripping open a bag. We too had to get a bread box. My cat would just eat the upper top part. I guess it was probably the crust he liked. But his approach would destroy an entire loaf even though he only ate like a 4th of it. Cause he ate some part of every slice.

      My mom would be so pissed.

      He always did it at night.
