Title: Clapton has me over a barrel
Post by: Mark on November 12, 2007, 12:44:42 PM
Although we were up at 6am. Clapton didn't want any breakfast. He was on my bed looking pitiful all morning. A while ago, I thought I had better try to get him to eat. I Opened a can of Whiskas sardine in Jelly (The last can of whiskas left) he wouldn't even go near it  :( - I then opened a pouch of Tesco chicken in Jelly and the same happened. Tesco have stopped making the foil trays he likes and they are only selling the supreme, also they had sold out of his favourite "Meat in Jelly" and "fish in Jelly" multipacks so choice is a bit thin on the ground for him. I ignored him and he jumped on the sofa and started chirruping and licking my hand (meaning feed me!) - I said, sorry Clap eat or go without - he must have sensed my tone as he jumped down and polished of 1/2 can in about 2 minutes  :evillaugh:

PS - some of my message was missing just now and I had to retype it in  :Crazy:

 ;D  He's got you well trained.  I've always said, it's all in the tone of voice!  If mine turn their noses up at something (rare) I tell them firmly that that's all I'm offering so they can eat it or go hungry.  They eat it  :rofl:

 :rofl: how right you are! Riley gets told "all done", and shown open hands, which he understands to mean "no treats available" - needless to say, he then hoovers up his food without complaint :evillaugh:
