Lounging By The Beach - Part 8

Well, yes I could force a dropper into their mouths....but that would probably traumatize them. I would like to just be able to feed them something they both like and come running when they hear the can pop open. I have only had them 3 weeks, so I am still experimenting and doing lots of internet research.

I have a little 6 pound toy poodle/yorkie mix and one time she got horribly sick from dog treats so now I won't buy her any. I give her dry food and then her treats are:
She LOVES cantaloupe, green beans (buy them fresh and cook them ahead and give them to her throughout the day), banana, hard cheese (co jack, cheddar) pop corn (before I salt it) broccoli (cooked or raw) carrots (cooked or raw) boneless skinless chicken breast (I cut her off some when I cook it before I put spices) ill have to think of the other things she likes.
Wonder if cats can digest the same types of things?

So how are the babies doing? Still very playful?

TY fls. It will be nice when this all settles down so we can say goodbye to her.

Yes....and destructive. They have pulled the straw out of one of my scarecrow fall decorations, have put all kinds of runs in my table cloth and today I caught one eating the artificial berries on a fall wreath on my counter. Yes...they have already found the counter tops. :p

When I had Buddie, I would give her science diet oral care and pre cooked meat for treats.

Glam,

On a Laptop, the "F" keys are still across the top, but the F1, F2... labels are printed tiny, and are often blue in color. These are considered Function Keys, and you need to find the Function button (Fn) that is also blue. You press Fn and hold it, and then F5. Then release both.

No...there are lots of veggies that are harmful to cats. In fact broccoli is bad...and onions and garlic are poisonous for them. The list is pretty long so I will just stick to meat. Meat is what they always eat in the wild. Dogs digestive systems are quite a bit different and much more tolerant of fruits and veggies.

Are you on a Mac, or on a Laptop (rather than a PC)?

You're on a laptop, they got to be there somewhere. :?:

fls I never do the internet on my phone so I don't have any help there.

It is a laptop......and there are keys up there, but no "F" keys and no numbers under 11. The top keys have numberfs 12 thru 19, then go to 110-112. and there are all kinds of symbols under the numbers..which mean nothing to me. One of them has a Zz on it, one of them has a box with an x in the middle of it, a couple of them have speakers on them, and a couple of them have boxes with symbols in them that I do not understand.

OHHH maybe I better check the dog list again. I know onions were bad. Never checked broccoli. I used to visit a website from a vet that had recipes on it to cook for your pet. And it had a great recipe for whole wheat garlic cheese dog biscuits (was also to help so she didn't get fleas, garlic good for that) then I moved and lost the recipe and have never found the website again.

I'm glad you brought that up ill def check that before I throw her something else to taste lol

Nothing blue on my keyboard.....and the fn key is at the bottom next to the control key, but not blue. And no F keys anywhere.

If you will tell me the make and model, usually listed on the back on a sticker, I'll look it up for you.
