Our cats only like the jelly too.Not very keen on gravy...As for the dog bingo will only eat buthchers and anything he can get off the kids or out the bin..
Tank is only getting puppy food at the mo(dried) but i am sure he will find a preference soon.

Milo will eat anything except bananas and cauliflower. :lol:

My rabbit Comfort loves anything you give her....

Lenor, my other rabbit won't eat the brown pellet things in his food

and my ferret refuses to eat dried ferret food and will only take dried cat food.

Our two male cats, Burt and Ernie love sausages(not particular what flavour)and on a Sunday morning sit by me and wait on the sausage coming down to them. Burt thinks he's a dog because he takes it from my fingers, Ernie waits till i put in on the floor for him. Burt follows me and my OH around like a dog as well and comes when you call him, just like a dog. I'm thinking that's what he must have been in a previous life, the only problem is, if that's true, he remembers being a dog. :roll: I don't think your supposed to remember a previous life, if you had one. Thing is nobody told Burt that. Te he. ;)

Funny you should mention sausages Nanoo. I couldn't think of a food fad for Cara - but she only likes Richmond sausages and ones from the butcher, any other kind is a no no. Once at Kanemere training I was very proud of her because they had a Christmas fun day and all the dogs had to retreive a sausage and not eat it - and woo hoo Cara won :lol:

I gave my collie meat in gravy with veg by mistake and all the veg ended up on the floor, she must have sucked the meat and gravy and spat out the veg!! lesson learnt buy meat in gravy with no veg, she is a funny little thing sometimes. likes something one day and not the next?? she like spag bol and chilli and rice though!
