My neighbor, owned by Schwartzie, mistakenly bought pate style FF.
Horrors! To compound the problem, it was beef, and poultry. Schwartzie
insists on fishy food and gravy. So she gave me a bunch of FF. Woo hoo!

I don't know why she didn't just take it back to the store to exchange
it for something he does like. I've done that when Persia doesn't like
something. But Persia will appreciate it. I never turn down free cat
food. :)

I used to get all the "prawns and shrimp" pouches that Tigger refused to eat
in his box of "I must have the green box with the lamb in.." but now he's
decided he likes them after all. Dammit.
Next month they will both go to TED for their jabs again, now quickly it
comes around.
Tigger is very different from Boyfie - he is up on worktops and tables very
blatantly. Although I have never told Boyfie off for this, he only jumps on
the worktops if I am upstairs, and I hear him jump down the very second I
come back, with an innocent face. "What, me? on the worktop in the
kitchen? you are mistaken.."

I can only assume that it wasn't allowed in his last house which saves me
the job of correcting him as I don't want him on the worktops either.
Of course he does it, but very sneakily. He absolutely *knows* it's naughty
without me telling him.
Someone must have.

(smile) Someone taught Persia not to jump on the counters in the
kitchen, for sure. I've had people tell me over the years surely she
must have done so when I wasn't home. Nope. I have *never* seen signs
she ever did. I don't have a camera on her collar but I've always
pretty much been able to tell where she's been. Or hasn't been, as the
case may be. :)

My sister *thought* she had trained her cat not to get on the kitchen
counter, and there was never any evidence that she had been there. Then,
one day, my sister glanced at the kitchen window as she walked from the
garage to the house. She saw her cat hastily jump down from the counter.
By the time she got in the house, her cat came out of the bedroom,
*stretching and yawning* as if she had been sleeping. Her cat was actually
a good little actress!

You don't train cats not to jump onto the counter, you train them not to
get caught. ;-)

Very true! Or you let them train us how things ought to be!

That's hilarious! And here I thought only humans did that pretending-to-
be-asleep thing.
