As to the original question, the only time mine eat table food is week-ends we are at the deer camp and then it's only a scrambled egg with a bit of rice and cheese. I can't leave their hard food out as it might attract mice and, I'm sorry, but I'm NOT sharing my home up there with a field mouse!!! I'll put their hard food out but when we go to bed, it's picked up and sealed up! By scrambling an egg for them (and I drizzle just a tad bit of honey on it), at least I know they are eating something.....and I don't take them to the camp every week-end.

Sometimes Hobbs won't eat his food either! So this week I started putting just a little bit of the Parmesean cheese on there and he definately gobbles it up! It is not shredded cheese...it is the grated kind...so it really is too small for them to pick out and it sticks to the kibbles really well.

I just feed Teddy white chicken meat, Fish, vegetables or a hard boiled egg from time to time. He does beg when I eat but if I ignore him he will be quiet and he has no problem eating his dry food, he loves it.

Actually vegetables are good for our furbabies...I steamed some carrots for supper tonight and gave Lillie and Sadie some mixed with their kibbles. I do from time to time give them a tiny bit of cheese, boiled chicken breasts, pieces of my toast(dry), a little bit of cooked Oatmeal and sometimes even cherrios! They do eat their kibbles and 3 little cubes of wet Nutro all the time..

I feed mine very little table food. I will give her a chip or cracker. I do not like her begging for food when we are eating. I give her can food in the am and at dinner. I keep the dry food available. If I am in a rush she just has to have the dry food.
