Maybe turkey doesn’t in fact contain more L-tryptophan than other foods, but you could have fooled Misu.  This is her on turkey.  She almost fell off the shelf.  Normally she’d be begging for more cat food, but today she’s a shelf potato.  Maybe it’s the taurine fix.

BTW, PSA–the safest way to serve turkey to cats is to lightly simmer the giblets with NO seasonings.  Onions and garlic are toxic to cats.  Do NOT give cats bones, fat, or skin.  For dogs, mostly the same goes, plus mix the meat with some rice.  Cats are carnivores, dogs are omnivores.

Here are E’s famous deviled eggs, plus turkey-day dinner of champions for humans–a serious imperial stout.  (Oh, and a turkey and sides were featured, as well.)
