[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 157682, member: 1697"] Daisylover, thanx for the heads up on that stuff..I will try it....our turtle gets dried turtle food daily, and feeder fish maybe once every 2 months or so..or when I am out of town.LOL- they used to last a few days, but, now, he eats them all right away. He hates crickets, tho....goofy turtle. fits right in, just as picky as my dog and my kids. The cats are the ones who will eat anything and everything, they especially love my dogs food, and my poor dog hates most food, LOL. The rabbit - he surprised me, he does not like broccoli or asparagus at all, altho he does like carrots, apples and celery. BUT usually we feed him rabbit pellets and alfalfa and timothy hay. 2 of our cats have a particular fondness for candy.....they steal it out of the candy dish and bat it around the house, and they also love to steal lollypops and QTips and bat those around, too. DUreing the holidays we had a small dish of Hersheys KIsses, and it was awful, even tho I had them in top shelf of our entertainment center, somehow the kitties still managed to keep getting those.....thank goodness they never ate any and neither did dog, becuz some dogs die from chocolate.....
