Chicken bones are gross?

Well...it has been forever!

A few weeks ago, Larry was taking Evan back to Acton and Sofia went with them. While they were out, I started prepping my chicken legs (thigh and drumsticks) for making raw cat food. When I put the grinder together I noticed a burr preventing the blade from sliding on. So I went downstairs to obtain the metal file. I filed the burr and started grinding the meat and bones.

Larry and Sofia come home and I hear Larry yell. "He stole something!"

I went into the living room and noticed that Koli (one of our new kittens) had stolen a drumstick, while I was in the basement. So, I picked up the kitten and the drumstick and moved him to the bathroom where he could eat it in peace.

After I completed the food, I fed all the cats. The two kittens ate their food in the bathroom. Sofia went to check on them and opened the door. She stood in front of the door and pointed into the room and exclaimed, "What is that?!?"

I looked into the room and asked, "What? The bowls are empty."

She replied, "No, that!" and turned around and slowly walked away. I watched her walk away, her shoulders moving up and down with each gag. She stopped at a chair and placed both hands on the chair and continued to gag.

"Are you alright? Are you going to throw up?" I asked.

With each question, she shook her head, keeping it down, staring at the chair.

"Did you see something gross?" I asked.

She nodded and said, "The bone."

I looked in the bathroom and the clean drumstick bone was on the floor.

It was so funny. How fascinating! Seeing a raw bone is gross to her, an instinctive response!
