      The regular kind, he just ate it, as much as he could before I managed to drag him away from it.
      It was kind of worrying to be honest.

        I mean yeah that is worrying… you as either a person or cat should probably not eat jellified petroleum, yeah.

        But… wtf?

        Maybe he’s just… hungry?

        A very odd cat?

        Like I’m trying to look this up, and I’m basicslly seeing this fall into the category of pica, which is essentially a mental disorder that can be triggered by a number of things…

        Maybe take kitty to the vet for a checkup?

          Cats don’t have opposable digits. Saving that jelly for later when ya aren’t looking. Or maybe when you are.
