    Yeah. I wish they could speak. To be fair she has used it before for ‘I need help’ and led me to whatever when I asked her to show me, but without a clear followup most often it’s been asking for wet food. (So very often that I once initially missed it as a cue for ‘there’s a hole in my biscuits, go shake the bowl.’) It was confusing because she was right next to what she wanted already and she didn’t walk around near it or start pawing. I could still be wrong about her wanting the nook but I’ll leave it open to see.

    It’s so hard when they get the fancies and the established stuff isn’t good enough. She completely turned up her nose at a fish Churu a while ago too. I’m really hoping that her appetite improves after the antibiotics are finished and the constipation has eased (both common causes of nausea). I’m a bit worried about sour cream with the lactose but you’ve reminded me she used to love Greek yogurt back when I was still able to eat it myself. Perhaps I should put a tiny tub in my next shop.

    Crocodile sounds cool, might be a bit expensive. She still loves her single protein fish treats and will eat them no problem - she just doesn’t always go for them if they’re garnishing a wet meal.
