Something else that was different in Sammy's usual routine was that a few weeks ago her appetite was not it's normal...she wasn't interested in her food without encouragement.
So, my son began adding carrots & broccoli to her kibbles...the carrots are the kind that come peeled in the little snack size bags & the broccoli is frozen (thawed).
I had just read somewhere here in the Nutrition section about those carrots being treated with Chlorine which is a carcinogen.
