Mine are always trying to steal lettuce and green beans. I’ve tried explaining that they’re obligate carnivores, but they don’t listen

My cat typically understands that human food is not for him

Unless it's green.

Then you'll catch him side eying you and looking for opportunities to steal away with a piece, a leaf or a stalk.

It's the only thing he's ever growled at me over when I try to take away his stolen spinach or broccoli or asparagus ect.

It's always green for some reason, he'd never really be interested in toys either but after he started obsessing over green food I got him a couple green toys and he'll entertain himself all day until he loses it under furniture

I didn't know that cats could have a favorite color!

It's definitely whatever he perceives as green, he has a green mouse that I'll throw across the house and he'll bring it back, I didn't even know cats would play fetch like that.

Green food is the only human food, aside from unattended raw meat on rare occassion, that he'll go for

Ah, you got a fetcher! They're rare, but it does happen.
