Speaking of animals and food oddities, my dog used to carry his food one mouthful at a time out to the living room so he could eat around us. He'd drop it on the floor and then leisurely eat it and go back for more.

The cat never sees you eat and is concerned. The dog carries his food out to you for roughly the same reason, he wants you to know he is eating and you should not worry about him. It's a social thing many animals do.

My ex wife got really pissed when I would take a bite and thoughtfully place it in front of her on the floor.

Honestly, her fault for marrying a non sapient creature.
