Can't blame you Donald! I'm not good at change either. I go by the saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" :)

Yeah, I should have known better, Kay! Even the birds wouldn't eat the pellets. :)

I guess Donald likes her tried and true meal. Nice videos, she's a cutie!

What you normally feed Donald looks more appetizing (even to a human) than the pellet stuff 🙂 We’ve tried “better” food for our cats. No matter how hungry they are, if they don’t like it, they won’t eat it 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think it’s sweet that Donald knew enough to wait for the seed soup.

You're right, Marie. We tried it dry first, after we added the water, it turned in mud!

Donald is one smart ducky!

Oh, Jill, how precious! With the shake of her tail, Donald shows all is right in her world with her simple meal. Definitely something to remember!

You're right, Sherida! Shaking her tail was her way of telling us "This is better!"

That is such a great lesson. I've heard something similar, relating to dogs, but this is so clear. Glad you were paying attention!

Donald always gets our undivided attention, Jacqui. I know you treat your dogs like royalty!

Poor girl! Haha, that's what I go through with my cats. They want the "McDonalds" of cat food.

LOL! As many cats that you've rescued, the "McDonalds" cat food is better for your budget. Thanks for reading, Luanne!

I'm happy Donald brought a smile to your face, Aussie. That's my goal. :) You're right, as difficult as change can be, it's part of life. Sometimes the change is for the better. Thanks for reading.

Hi Jill, we have had the same experience with our animals. They don’t like change.

Just like my cat Freddie. He knows what he likes and he likes what he knows. I can't fool him! Hope you and Donald are keeping cool!
