    Oh now, fresh turkey is a totally different thing!! My cats won't leave me alone they love it so much. Mollie Rose has her breakfast of scrambled egg with cheese and turkey in it. If I don't make it for her, there is hell to pay.

    The only time Edwina likes treat is if she see Eddie eating them.

    But tuna? Turkey? Arby's Roast Beef? Now you're talking!

    I give mine canned food as a treat. Only about 1/2 teaspoon. Now and then I give them a regular treat, some will eat it, some will not.

    Smudge is allergic to most treats, but he enjoys Kitty Kaviar bonito (fish) flakes or, if you'll believe it, Vitamin E! I learned when I was trying to put some on an ouchie on his face, and he finally managed to explain to me that the TONGUE is where it belongs. I just puncture the capsule with a pushpin, squeeze it onto my finger, and let him lick it off. It's totally safe - I looked it up and double-checked with my vet.

    One of my kitties, Bailey, does not eat treats, but he loves shredded cheese. He gets a small pinch of cheese for a treat. He comes running into the kitchen when he hears the bag rattling.

    Purina Wiskers Lickens (crab flavor) are my gangs favorite. Poor Eleanor when she eats to many has soft poops. She never liked any treats until these. Stephen screams/begs for them when we are sitting down for a meal at the table. While we eat, I toss treats on the floor and watch 4 cats run for them.

    I never gave Taz treats until a fellow PTer (I believe it was Katie) sent me Whiska's Temptations. And I had read about how much the found cats loved it and so did he. Now he gets Greenies. Today we had some freebies at the shelter and I just gave Taz and Paizly some of those and they love them too. I can't remember what they are and the dining room is too far away from me right now.

    Before I started giving these treats the only "treat" Taz got was tuna when I had to give him medicine. But when your cat weighs 21 1/2lbs, treats is not recommended. That's why he gets some each day now, my Mr Skinny.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Buddy likes little bites of cheese or natural turkey lunch meat.
