Hello everyone,
 
Well I am playing catch-up on two weeks of FML's...working too much and not
enough time to sit down, read, and play catch-up.
 
One out of our 11 fuzzies does not like raisins.  Marge will go for the
Nutrical, and that's pretty much it.  Well since it's Pinon (also called
pine nuts) season around NM, my husband bought a few pounds.  They are
roasted and then one sits there for hours on end and shells them and then
enjoys them.  He decided to give Marge one and see what she does...well
guess what folks....she loves them!!!  So we tried them on the other
fuzzies.  8 out of 11 go nuts over them.  They are very small, and even if
by slim chance they swallow it whole, it would pass right through them.  The
fuzzies don't try to steal them with the shells on them, they just sit on
your lap and wait till u give in and give one up.  Then run like crazy, and
return shortly there after begging for another one.  One never knows what
what they will like, and given in small amounts don't hurt.  Lets face it,
we all like our junkfood...well I do anyway...LOL
 
Just thought I would pass this along, as I am always out to find new treats
that my fuzzies will like.  Nutri-cal by far is still their favorite
overall, with the Pro 8 in1 raisin/banana treats as a close second.  Oh
yeah, we did try the raisin diving thing awhile back...and yes boy does it
work.  Not only will they dive for raisins, but also snorkle for them.  I
use a deep dish, fill it with about 3 inches of luke warm water, and we all
sit around and laugh the entire time.  Speedy (our only MF fuzzie) is by
far the best snorkler in our group.  If you want to have a good laugh after
a hard day at work (or in my case 16 hr day), try it, as nothing works
better than a Fuzzie fix, as I call it.
 
Hugs to all the fuzzies
