I was about to say, we host and feed cats in every corner of the globe yet they have us run around to fetch their stuff and both the ancient Egyptians as well as modern day internet user revere them like gods. If that's not intelligence I don't know what is.

Maybe it's just luck. If they were to taste good their faith could be different.

Imported answer from 3rd party:

" Texturally it's similar to goat or pork. Almost like chicken but stringier. Same color as pork, same general fattiness.

That's where the similarities end. Granted both times were in seaside towns, but the flavor was akin to the way it smells when you open a can of tuna. Fishy, pungent and strong. Basically cat tasted like cheap cat food smells. "
