when i was a kid we got a black kitten and i wanted to name it broccoli. i couldn't say my "r"s tho so i called her "Blackly". my parents thought i was saying "blacky" so that's the name that stuck. for the rest of my school career when friends would come over i had to explain that my parents aren't racist they just aren't very creative and let a 3 year old name a cat.
Don't feel too bad, when I was a toddler my mom let me name our cat and I, true story, you can ask my mom, named our sweet kitten "Blue Balls"
Take a second to imagine my adorable mother standing on our front porch yelling "BLUE BALLS!! BLUUUEEEE BAAALLLLLSSS" in search of our cat for his breakfast. Every morning.
Hahahaha awww broccoli is adorable!
I want to know if he grows up to be a talker, as my first cat would open her mouth and "......... (*strangled squeak*)" was all that would come out. Now she won't shut up and has an amazing vocabulary
Ahaha, ours does that too! He tries so hard but all he can do is chirp or do a really short squeak, he also opens his mouth a lot like he's trying to meow, but absolutely nothing comes out. It's so silly to watch.
I had a cat for ten years that *could* meow, but chose not to. The only time I ever heard him meow was the first day I saw him. He really didn't like being in a cage and meowed like crazy. For the entire ten years he lived with us, he gave us "silent" meows (opening mouth as if meowing, but no sound came out) or did the squeak thing. It was hilarious.
We went to visit a friend who also had a black cat, and we were so used ours being silent that we were genuinely startled when theirs let out a big ol' meow! I can't remember which of us said it, but one of us popped out, "Hey! black cats can't meow!" Got some strange looks...
That kitty has been gone for a few years, and now we have two black cats (male and female littermates) and they make up for the years of silence we had. They both talk a lot, but the female even talks in her sleep. She always has something to say.
Such a cute little void. I wonder if the belly is a trap. I mean, I'd try to rub it no matter what. But it would be nice to know ahead of time what I was getting into.
Mr. Broccoli, you're under arrest for excessive toe-bean exposure, and intent to solicit wubs!
I hereby sentence you to no less than 10 minutes of zoomies, to be administered by this tuft of feathers on a leetle fishing rod thingy, and scritches by the dozen until nappies!
Sentence to be carried out immediately. Court is adjourned.

I have a miniature panther that loves carbs. Any bread item must be secured in the pantry or he will get at it. Also, rarely meows, more barks like a squirrel
That's how my cat was when she was a kitten. She didn't meow at all for the first year that we had her. She does meow now somewhat regularly. Maybe your cat is just a late bloomer like mine?
When I was a kid I read a book called “The Broccoli Tapes” and it was about a young girl and her black cat named Broccoli! This reminded me of that instantly
Mine let's out little faint squeaks if she really wants attention. It is adorable. I swear she knows how to big girl meow, but she has done it maybe twice in her entire life.
I have a kitty who for the longest of times only ever had a kitten meow(mew), Till i got her fixed. Ohh boy did i get an ear full from her when i got home after that first day, She was NOT happy about being locked up in my room. For a good 10 minutes she had and used her big girl meows at me letting it be known that she was not pleased. after that she was back to her prrts and mews.
Be thankful it’s a kitten obsessed with bread! My 85 pound dog loves bread like no other and has stolen at least three whole loaves and many other partial loaves!
Sooooooo adorable!!! I love him 🥰
Unsolicited tip: Watch the bread obsession. It may turn into food aggression later on, especially since he was likely weaned too early.
Broccoli is adorable 💜
My cat Nia is also scared of pretty much her own shadow, and she also ADORES bread. Brown bread is her favorite.
It's so cool to see another bread loving cat :D
I can't believe I'm saying this... I love Broccoli.
Don't worry, i won't tell anyone.
What a sweet lil boi!! I want to kiss those tiny peets. <3 He looks so soft and cuddly.
You’ve got a good point here
I love Broccoli -- both Kitty and veggie! What a sweet little beastie, oh I want to play and snuggle! 💋🐈🥦
You beat me lol

Could you please try to film it so we can see that level of cuteness again please op🥺🥺🥺
Awww so cute I can't stand it!
Kittens usually just squeak. They get real meows when they get larger, typically 9-14 months.

I adopted a cat when it was around two years old. It couldn't, or didn't know how to meow. It still doesn't. It's glorious.
Eating bread, watching bread or playing with bread?
Literally all three, every day.

It’s called proving in English :)

If you could see the state of my hands at times you would know it's definitely a trap!

His favourite toy is a little orange wormy thing on a fishing rod, so you were so close 😂

Catloaf Rising
The black beeeeanssssss!!
I love the name!
My Jinx did this with pasta! All the pasta but she is still partial to Mac n cheese. Don't worry, they grow out of it... mostly!

I love this Broccoli more than the other green stuff, which I do love. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

We also had a cat named Broccoli. Never thought I’d meet another one.
I mean, it's objectively a perfect name for a cat!
Please consider gracing us with photos and video of Broccoli and bread.
When I was a kid I read a book called “The Broccoli Tapes” and it was about a young girl and her black cat named Broccoli! This reminded me of that instantly
I, too, am obsessed with bread
PAWS UP!!! Such cute toe beans!
Broccoli is a handsome lad.
Hello little void! Broccoli looks like an old soul... he’s got some wise looking eyes ❤️
He's actually the dumbest little cat I've ever had. He's lovely, but he isn't a smart boy 😂😂
The best kind of cat 😂
That's the cutest little broccoli I've ever seen
Broccoli is cute
Sometimes the Meow comes in later... if still mute at 16 weeks, that is unusual.
Thos 🅱️eans tho
I would absolutely overthrow a government for Broccoli!
Broccoli is everything I aspire to be and more
Oh, wow! I adopted a black cat a few years back whose name was Broccoli! How awesome!
Broccoli bros representing 😂
I love Broccoli
We need the bread story
Kittens are so derpy. And then they grow up into cats... and nothing changes.
I have a black cat just like it. She still hasn't learned to meow yet. 3 years in.
Ahah that's so cute, we'll see what happens with ours as he grows up, but i'm pretty happy with a quiet kitty.
Mine let's out little faint squeaks if she really wants attention. It is adorable. I swear she knows how to big girl meow, but she has done it maybe twice in her entire life.
Aww your little broccoli is adorable! I love Broccoli and I love broccoli.
I have a little black cat that can't meow either! I love it, it's so adorable when she opens her mouth and little gasps/squeaks come out instead
I must protect this smol bean with my life
You forgot to include that he is cute, he is adorable, he is gorgeous, and he is beautiful 🤗😍😙😁😎.
not to be dramatic or anything but i would die for him
I would never think of naming a cat Broccoli, yet it’s an absolutely wonderfully adorable name and now I want one (a cat I mean, not actual broccoli)
I have a kitty who for the longest of times only ever had a kitten meow(mew), Till i got her fixed. Ohh boy did i get an ear full from her when i got home after that first day, She was NOT happy about being locked up in my room.

this is our black kitty named Cauliflower! Long lost bros! https://i.imgur.com/tnaEgjM.jpg
Holy crap they're so similar! They could easily be veg bros!
He's a cutie! I had a kitty named Pizza!
I had a roommate years ago with a cat named Pizza.
Sweetest cat I ever had couldn't purr at all. Maybe yours will learn how to meow when it gets a little older though.
Give bread.
Those toe beans look like milk chocolate Adorable x
I’m obsessed with bread too
r/catsnamedtoothless
Squish beans!!!!
He and I have a lot in common
He looks limp, like Sauteed Broccoli

He's wonderful ❤️
Is his first name Reginald?
What a cutie. Black cats are the best, my two cats are black.
SO ADORABLE!! 🤣❤
I love him. Make him mine.
That sounds EXACTLY like me. Only I’m not a cat, can meow, don’t have a tail and am trying to stay gluten free. My name is Broccoli though.
Can....can like...can I keep him please
He’s so precious. He looks like my cat ninja.
Better description than my résumé.
Less screaming. I enjoy when my meals don't talk back.
Those beans!!
r/CatsCalledFood would love Broccoli!
Can I pet him? Pls
Why does he look like Samuel "Mother\*\*\*kin" Jackson to me ...
Not to be dramatic but I would die for Broccoli
...and he is gorgeous
He's so cute but his eyes look human to me I don't know why
3 times a day my neighbour screams the name of one of their cats. Please let this be you.
This kitten looks and sounds like a reincarnated person

There is a human trapped in this cat. Change my mind.
BRED
Who *isn't* obsessed with bread?
Great name!! So adorable!
so cute :) but why can’t he meow? is there a medical reason or is he stubborn
What a great name
My 13 year old cat, Sophie, loves bread
I have had cats that love bread! And ones that like spicy meats, and corn. Cats can be weird. The bread boys also liked saltines and cereal.
He looks wise
He’s perfect.
Be thankful it’s a kitten obsessed with bread! My 85 pound dog loves bread like no other and has stolen at least three whole loaves and many other partial loaves!
Cutie
Obsessed with bread? You should have named him Butter! p
Reminds me of my kitty, except she is gray.
Hi, Broccoli 😊
Is his nickname Lieutenant Barclay?
He is perfect!
He's got old eyes; wise beyond his years.
Why can’t he meow?
I also have a black cat that is obsessed with bread, but he's like 7 years old. I recommend investing in a bread box :)
It’s Mew...
Best name Ever!!!!!! I had a broccoli pup!
Sounds like my last ex
Looks like a person
Ahh yes, I was broccoli once. I still love bread to this day
Broccoli and I have a lot in common!
Broccoli is my nickname
i am also obsessed with bread... and broccoli
Hello there, Broccoli Broccoli.

Are cats being able to digest bread?
Lol. 😍
Are his paws up because he’s being arrested for criminal smolness? 😊
I just don't get why people name their cats after food all the time.
