Constant begging for Dreamies

That's such a weird thread title.

Anyway.

My cat's life has been taken over by bloody Dreamies. His world revolves around them. I (foolishly) introduced him to them about three months ago, and he is totally obsessed. I only have to rise from my chair for him to be yowling and begging. He is constantly standing by the cupboard where I keep them.

I have another cat, and he's totally not bothered. If he gets Dreamies, he gets them. Otherwise he doesn't give them much thought.

Should I make Cat 1 go cold turkey? It's getting extremely annoying! I love the creature but it's starting to wear me down!

These things. Blobcat likes them very much. At £1.59 for 10g, of course he does!

Those look good weeds.

Starting to feel like I am only working to support Wankercats addiction!

I don't want to stop her using the mouse. I'm hoping it becomes more interesting than real mice and birds for the upcoming hunting season.

I've found, in the past, that cats who go for mice aren't that interested in birds. In the wild, anyway.

cozie whilst she brings in more mice than birds, she definitely goes for both - often one of each in the same weekend. Friday nights/Saturday mornings from spring through to the end of Autumn we have a dead body of some description to deal with every Saturday morning. If we are up late on a Friday night we usually have the "alive" incomer to deal with. I'd say we have 3 rodents (of various persuasions) to every birdy.

She is a nightmare. She'll be 8 this year and a little rotund so we are hoping that her hunting days may be decreasing.
