We brought Dyson’s low magnesium food to France with us, and mostly dry food for Snowball, but the weather was so hot in the first few days that we bought some sachets for her as we were concerned with the amount of fluid/moisture she was getting. She’s been eating the French food very happily, which is a relief – she can be very fussy (although less so since Dyson moved in).
So we decided to give Dyson one of the French sachets (we give him standard food perhaps once every five days as a change). Dyson will eat just about anything (last night this included the battery from his tracker tag, which he finally crunched open but, luckily, he spat it out), and the menu we selected was chicken and peas.
There were a few minutes of enthusiastic eating, then Dyson took a few steps back, licked his lips, looked up expectantly for more (answer: No), then moved a bit further and started grooming vigorously.
It was some time later I actually looked at his bowl and, to my surprise, found it not quite empty. Yes, the chicken was all gone. So was the jelly. But four peas remained neatly licked clean and group together.
I left them. Later that night, we put a couple of treats in his bowl, which again disappeared quickly. I checked the bowl. Three peas left neatly at one side.
And one pea nosed very gently out of the bowl altogether, and on the floor next to it.
