We had a cat that loved yellow food. I realize cats don’t see colors the way we do which made it all the more confusing. Honeydew melon? Yeah. Cantaloupe? Nah. Water melon? You crazy? Yellow bell pepper? Go ahead. Red bell pepper? Fuck off. It loved corn. And potatoes. And once it went straight for the yellow M&M when they spilled on the floor. That cat had a severe deficiency of yellow.
I’ve always heard that cats are basically colourblind, but I used to have a cat that was terrified of the colour orange. He bit an orange extension cord as a baby, and would avoid anything orange after that. Not red, not yellow, only bright orange.
We had a bright orange blanket, and if you dropped him onto it, he’d spring away like it was a trampoline.
It’s crazy how orange gave your cat PTSD. I think cats are dichromatic, they see blue and yellow. But orange is weird because of the red part of the color. I guess they still can differentiate?

That’s so weird.

Must be. He had no reaction to yellow or red.
