I have a new little fuzzie, Bandit, that is a little over one year old. She adapted well the first week eating my kibble mix. After a week, I started introducing small amounts of Wysong's Archetypal-1. Then she decided to regress to behavior that she exhibited at her previous residence. Whenever I sit at my kitchen table, she jumps up my leg and climbs to my lap and begs. The previous owner told me about this. So I thought this would be a great time to give her bite-size pieces of Archetypal-1. After "consuming" great quantities of Archetypal-1 for several days, I realized where her name came from. She would not eat it but stashed it in various hidie-holes around the house. Well I thought she would not miss some of her stash so I started recycling it. I now think I have really messed her up. I see her going to her hidie-holes and she seems frantic that some of it is missing. She is no longer eating any kibble from the dish. However, she still jumps up to my lap and takes Archetypal-1 from me and eats/hides it. I assume she must be eating some of it. She can stash a whole bag of Archetypal-1 in just a few days so I can not just let her have as much as she wants. Also, recycling Archetypal-1 from her hidie-holes is stressing her out. How do I allow her to jump up to my lap occasionally but not let her consume an entire meal from my lap so that she will eat the kibble/Archetypal-1 mix in her food dishes? How do I correct this behavior that I think I caused? -- William [log in to unmask] 505 440 0760 Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like. -Will Rogers [Posted in FML 6596]
