Furball Diaries, a Facebook page that makes cartoon illustrating stories about cats immortalized Sneaky and I in this one showing how Sneaky rejects all of his food unless I add treats to it.
Here's the original Facebook post and story about us:

For those who aren't on Facebook, here's the story that they wrote to accompany the cartoon:

"Happy Furball Fan Friday! Please give a massive round of applause to this week's magnificent feline star, Sneaky, and his incredibly dedicated human, Chris Crawford!
When we asked for your weirdest cat habits across our Furball Diaries page and Cats World group, Chris (whom you can see in the comic strip!) shared a story that had us laughing out loud! Seven years ago, Sneaky was a shivering, homeless stray who found refuge with Chris on a freezing winter night. Fast forward to today, and that hungry little stray has transformed into the world's most dramatic food critic!
Sneaky absolutely refuses to touch dry food. When Chris opens a can of wet food, Sneaky gets incredibly excited—he meows, purrs, and rubs against Chris's ankles in anticipation. But the *exact second* the food hits his plate, the show begins. He sits back, looks at the pâté with a face of absolute disgust and revulsion, as if Chris had just served him a plate of dog poop! He will sit there and refuse to take a single bite, pouting and following Chris around to complain about his 'starvation,' until Chris acts like a gourmet chef and adds a mandatory garnish of kitty treats or real meat on top. Only then will the master manipulator finally eat his dinner!
From a shivering stray to a pampered king who demands gourmet garnishes and loves to be held like a baby by his favorite human (and only him!)! What a journey, Sneaky! We are so glad you found your forever home with Chris.
