Like @jortsthecat.bsky.social, cats have been asking for a little salami, as a treat, since 490 BC.

An Etruscan jar depicting a youth and a cat. The background is an orangey brown and the man, a naked youth with a scarf draped over his shoulder, is depicted in black. He is holding out a little treat or toy for a cat, depicted in the midst of a full body leap.
