Well, I finally got to the store last night and bought a bag of Temptations. When I got home, I crinkled the bag because that used to always bring Peanut running until lately when she's so bored with the treats. She came as far as the end of the runner in the hallway, so I had to bring the new treats to her.

Well let me tell you, after the first hesitant bite, that first litte treat was gone in a flash, and she came running to me with those big eyes, meowing feverishly. Then she stretched up on the cabinets which she only does when she's desperate for a treat. She definitely wanted more! And by this time Tubby had come to see what all the fuss was about, so he got his first taste. Lately he's so spoiled that I bring the treat to him and he doesn't even have to get up to eat it but after his first taste of Temptations, he too was sitting up, bright eyed and bushy tailed waiting for the next one to drop.

I got the Savory Salmon flavored ones. They're different because they're a little crunchy on the outside but chewy on the inside - they don't like the all crunchy ones, too much like their regular food I think. But they certainly liked these. They are small pieces, so I broke down and gave them a few more, but had to stop before I gave them too many.

Thanks, Richard, for the suggestion. I can now ease my guilt again with treats (guilt over having to shove a pill down their throats every morning). Now all I have to do is keep Terry away from them because he has no will power against Peanut at all, and she'll talk him into giving up the whole bag.
