Default why do so many animals like peanut butter?

Every dog I know goes nuts over a left over jar; and by the time they done
with it (hour or so), you'd think the jar had gone through the dishwasher!
And mice, they cannot resist eventhough they know it's a trap.

And there's my ex who would go through a large jar in less than a week.

Does peanut butter have something in it similar to crack?

If you had kept her in a pumpkin shell rather than
a large jar you might still be married, y'know.

lol

A leftover jar works well. Makes them have to work for it, and not get it
all at once. And they will till every last bit they can reach is gone. The
chusky I had would spend an hour with a plastic jar. He'd try and hold the
jar in his paws and it would bounce around and then he'd chase after it...
When he finally was done, I would slice it open so he could get what was
left at the bottom.

she hasn't yelled or swore even once since we got divorced. Better to have
our own places to retreat to, methinks... She borrowed my rug shampooer
yesterday and we watched Sullivan's Travels the other day. We should have
skipped getting married and just went straight to divorce.

and the lawyer fees. And family embarrassment when she mass emails
everyone... And the intense conversations for two years that ended in
crying, and then deciding we should split up; then after a few minutes
saying: we can make this work. we'll make this work.

getting rid of squirrels and raccoons in the attic is easier!

That's because you taught her that constant barking resulted in a reward.

in bed, yes... I mean, no. She's okay. We are film buddies now, and no
longer **** buddies Watch old movies together. I give her tomatoes from
the garden when I have extra, and she borrows the rug shampooer in exchange
for thin crust pizza.

my mum was addicted to it on a cracker. She'd often sit in front of the
telly with a stack of crackers and a jar of peanut butter.

Roasted peanuts have a pervasive attractive aroma.
You can attract many critters just as easily by frying bacon.
If you want to attract felines use tuna, don't even need to open the
can.
