I gave birth to Pusher's magic love child

Kitten will now eat nothing but cheese. These are her grudging words when we arrive home every day, she goes to the fridge, holds the handles, and throws a fit if we don't provide the cheese. When we open the door, she points to the drawer where she knows it is kept, and we can't even tell her there is no cheese, as, alas, the drawers on the new fridge are clear.

We went to the 5-8 tonight because there is a lack of dinner food at home, and we ordered Kitten a grilled cheese sandwich. Pants also brought 2 cheese slices from home to appease her while we waited for her meal (judiciously ordered with our drinks). Kitten tried ever so hard to peel the sandwich apart and only eat the cheese, but it was melted into the bread so she had to eat the whole thing. We are considering melting cheese over yogurt to see what happens.

No human should eat this amount of cheese. Especially not one that weighs 25 pounds. She is only discerning with her cheese in the fact that if yellow cheese is available, white cheese must be immediately abandoned. We can sometimes get her to eat something else if no cheese is available, but again, we can't lie about the cheese status because she can plainly see it in the drawer.

I repeat, no human should eat this much cheese. Oh when will this phase end?

From my experience it will never end.

Oh, but think of those strong bones and teeth!

I see no problem here. Kitten and Pumpkin give me hope for the next generation of cheese-lovers!

Have you thought of swapping in one of the stanky cheeses, like a real ripe foot-smelling one? Maybe that would put her off it. Although, if that backfired and she loved it, well, that would probably be worse.

If I learned anything from the Lick Yourself Bald Guys, it's that "If you eat too much cheese, you can't poop"

Yeah, we were concerned about the "not pooping", but it's been a non-issue.
