Gracie is to smart. We have started feeding her about a teaspoon or so of can food for breakfast so we can mix some minced garlic in it to keep the fleas away. We started it last week. She now comes to you when you are in the kitchen in the morning and barks at you and looks at the fridge then her bowl, then she looks back at you. Then when you start to dish it up she sits there patiently and watches you. Then we put it in the microwave for 10-15 sec. to warm it up and she starts dancing around when the microwave dings. She follows you over to her spot where she eats and waits for you to put it down. Then she eats it up. She makes sure to leave just a little so the kitty can have a little and then the kitty can lick the bowl. She is so sweet. I wanted to give you visual, we think it is so cute.
