Fancy Feast isn’t just for your cat anymore.

The cat food brand -- owned by Purina -- announced earlier this week that it has released a cookbook for humans to celebrate the release of its new line of single-serve entrees, Petites.

The "Fancy Feast Petites Feast Cookbook" is free to download online and includes 12 single-serve recipes inspired by Petites, so humans can enjoy dinner alongside their pets.

"Mealtime is a bonding experience," the introduction to the cookbook says. "We sit at a dining table with our family, we gather with friends. Now Fancy Feast is asking you to extend the invitation to your cat to join you for mealtime as you cook meals inspired by their favorite dishes but made just for you.

According to Purina’s announcement, the 12 recipes in the cookbook were developed by Fancy Feast’s in-house chef, Amanda Hassner, alongside James Beard Award Nominee Jerrelle Guy and actor-turned-baker Josh Snyder.

"The cookbook features recipes that are elevated but easy enough to whip up on a weeknight," Hassner said in a statement. "Each dish was inspired by the small-plate restaurant trend. The recipes are for humans but were created in honor of the dishes you will be serving your cat."

When my Grandpa came to visit he would bring the best tacos from a restaurant by his house. One visit he stopped bringing them. We asked why and he said “Board of Heath closed it down for using cat meat.”

For years we called cats “walking tacos”

Yep. The article states, “The recipes are for humans”.

The sort of feral cat here usually only comes in to share my dinner plate.

During the past year, I’ve only been able to get one small bag of Fancy Feast. It’s never in stock anymore.

The 2 or 3 feral cats that visit us have to survive on cheap store brand cat food, once a day. they show up in the evening along with a opossum or two that like dry cat food. I told my wife that after taking in a 3 or 4 year old male that had been dumped and 2 kittens late last fall, we had our limit of indoor cats. She agreed. We know that the male was dumped because when we took him to the vet, she said he had been neutered.

Ours get regular Purina or Whiskas food but $$$$$ Temptations treats. I try to find dry Fancy Feast for treats since it’s cheaper. We could eat lobster every day for the cost of Temptations.

BTW, they absolutely will not touch Rachel Ray’s cat food.

Feral mama kitty birthed the older ones in the garage. A couple years later, one of the original ones brought home another litter group. The first ones are pretty smart but, hoo wee!, mama sure could have done better with the second daddy.

The one who enjoys sharing my dinner lost a fight with a possum a couple weeks ago. Thankfully, his prissy brother refused to get his paws dirty on an armadillo that has been wandering across the porch the last few days.

They could survive on the varmints they drop at my feet.

The ongoing attack on meat supplies may make canned cat food attractive as an alternative to starvation.

I remember Gravy Train. I think we even ate some to see how it tastes. I was a stupid kid.
