I didn't know cats liked cheese. I found out Tom the Noble Cat does. He came to me when I unwrapped a package of Dutch Garden Smoked Gouda. I gave him a small sliver. He took it from my fingers, ate it, and begged for more. Since then, he shows up waiting for cheese, which I like well enough to more or less keep it in supply. He has eaten cheddar, and I thought I had fed him Swiss. However, last week I gave him a bit of Jarlsberg Lite Swiss. He didn't eat it. I though the piece was too big and broke it up. He didn't eat it where he mostly licks it up from the floor. So I put it into his food dish on top of his dry Friskies. Next day, it was still there with the Friskies mostly gone. Later in the day I passed by his dish, and the cheese was there. When I passed almost time for his canned meat, the two little Swiss bites were carefully laid outside the dish. Very careful of him it was. He is mostly a bit careless with his eating enough to find bits dropped from his mouth to the floor as he eats his meals in several sessions.
This was his silent lesson for me, "You know I prefer the kind without the holes."
