But why... it's very ignorant to feed pets toxins regardless how small
an amount... especially when someone has a zillion food issues
themself. My cats get treats but not from those tiny expensive
packets... I give them a small portion of Purina kitten chow and they
love it... costs a whole lot less too. I guy the 14 pound bag:
https://www.chewy.com/kitten-chow-nu...-14-/dp/127713
There's absolutely no reason to feed one's pets foods that are toxic,
not unless one is a sadistic imbecile. In nature critters know not to
eat onions and any plant in the onion family. Only a sicko *******
would dress up onion with meat so their pet will eat it... yoose are
the freaks who ruined a fun holiday by handing out Halloween treats
laced with rat poison.

Apparently the effects vary by the percentage of chocolate in
whatever it is.

Parents of a friend of mine had a beloved little poodle they loved
giving chocolate kisses. This was before I knew her (or them) or I
would have said something. One day it ate a while bowl of them
while they were out and died. Even though they were devastated,
they comforted themselves that at least the dog died happy.

I cook for mine, and freeze in portions. I always heat in the microwave
until warm before I feed her. She eats good, meat, veggies, and a bit for
rice occasionally, plus a TBS of cottage cheese and a tsp or so of pumpkin
daily. I buy her meat in the reduced meat section so she gets a fair
variety.

That is pretty much how I feed my dogs too

Me too, but I could eat what she eats if I so desired. On a side note, our
dog Ollie used to go through the vineyard eating the Tokay grapes almost
daily when they were ripe, he never had a problem with sickness etc., so I
think some dogs are bothered by things, and some aren't.

Even though it came off ration, it was not readily available in shops

The person I mentioned in the prior Hershey kiss incident tried to feed my
cat chocolate ice cream. She laughed it off when I said that cats shouldn't
have ice cream or chocolate. Maui only sniffed it but wouldn't so much as
lick it.

And doesn't just knowing that history make you sad?
We can rescue but we can't erase their past.

And so nice of you (and others here) to rescue animals.
Of all my ferrets (2 babies and 2 rescues), Fred the male
ferret had the bad life with original owners.

Kept in the smallest cage that one could buy and also
ignored for most of his first 1.5 years. He just existed
in a tiny cage with very little human contact. And this
is when they are most energetic ready to play at all
times. So sad to do that to an animal.

<Note: KILL his original owner> >;o

First my daughter adopted him and he immediately had a
ferret companion, plus a large deluxe cage ($450) and
also most of the days and nights out of cage.

Then I took over and same conditions for the rest of
his life. Such a very loving ferret and to this day
I still almost get tears in my eyes just imagining
what a nightmare life when young Fred lived all alone.

I still have a pic of him on my dashboard.
It's the right hand picture above.

None of my rescues have had such horrifying experiences as my current dog.
I have recounted it several times here, but if you want to know I will tell
it again.

She is afraid of ALL dogs and most people. It took almost a year before she
fully trusted us but now, whenever she sees us she wags her tail and comes
running

She still chews herself but will allow me to look at and treat everything
she needs Yesterday I had an odd experience She was comfy on her chair
and I went to treat some of her sore places. I did one said and I said to
her, I need to do the other side. I made a spinning motion with my hand.
She got off the chair and I thought I had frightened her BUT she got off the
chair and CAME BACK ON THE RIGHT WAY AROUND!!! They do say that Collies
have the intelligence of a 3yo child but heck !!! Heh I still haven't got
over it)

bones.

So sorry there, Oph. That was your buddy Janet UK that
said that. I always try to be careful with trimming but
sometimes mess up. ;o

When John was still doing art shows and I'd travel with him, we were
invited to dinner at the home of a couple who had purchased a number of
his paintings. They had a nice house and a couple of young sons. They
had bought a guinea pig for the boys. You know how it goes if you get a
pet for children who are too young to realize the responsibility. Of
course the boys quickly lost interest.

We were getting a tour of the house. The guinea pig was in a small cage
on the floor of the master bedroom. Largely ignored, never played with.
I felt so sorry for that little creature. The man took it out of the
cage and I held it. He warned me it might bite me. Nope, it snuggled
under my chin as I spoke softly to it, and it reached up and gave me a
"kiss" on the cheek! The poor thing was starved for attention.

OB Food: they served us delicious grilled chicken for dinner.

I wouldnt be suprised at all on any of that. Wild dogs/coyotes/wolves
are well known for eating a bit of fruits and veggies. Primary diet
meat of course, but they will nibble bits of other things.

I'm quite sure. They lived in Kansas, not South America. I do get this
odd catalog in the mail around Christmas time asking me to send money so
the poor folks in impoverished countries can buy and raise things like
guinea pigs for food.
