I tried it once, giving them bits of beef. (Salt and pepper; they don't mind pepper). Kika smelled it a bit and then went back to her "you're giving me attention, right? Pet me, pet me!" modus operandi, while Siegfrieda picked it from her bowl and started playing with it. Kind of funny because she used to be a street cat and probably ate all sorts of nasty stuff, but nowadays she's spoiled enough to be picky on meat.

We even joke at home that the cats bug us every meal - not because they want food, but because the humans dare to gather together without giving them attention.
